Linda Kintzler

Linda Kintzler, a junior fellow at the Harvard Society of Fellows, dives deep into the complex legal and societal aftermath of January 6, 2021. She theorizes on the role of oblivion in shaping collective memory, complicating the notions of justice and forgiveness. Highlighting historical parallels, Kintzler stresses the importance of narratives in healing a divided nation and questions whether pardons could foster true reconciliation or merely mask deeper issues. Her insights challenge us to reflect on how we remember and confront our political past.
