Reflections on Legacy and Rebirth

This chapter examines the national funeral for a former U.S. President, the political responses surrounding Greenland's sovereignty, and the mixed reactions to the death of far-right figure Jean-Marie Le Pen in France. It contrasts these political narratives with cultural stories, like the emotional return of Syrian nationals and the successful reintroduction of yellow iguanas in the Galapagos. Additionally, the chapter celebrates Colombia's Black and White Carnival, emphasizing the importance of cultural heritage in the face of political turmoil.
