We discuss the feeling of void that comes with untimely and unjust loss, and shared tragedy that brings victims of political assassinations together.
We also talk about emotions that resurface when news of new assassinations take hold, narrative battles that take hold within minutes of learning of the targeted individual and a shared commitment to pursuing justice and holding criminals to account.
Ghena Hariri is a PhD researcher at Birkbeck, University of London.
