The first piece of the project is a creative account of my travels to Europe and experiences as an American intern in Brussels. The experiences I describe are creatively retold to create a story with fictionalized characters meant to represent a conglomerate of the people I met.
The second part of my narrative is focused on my research and interviews with Colin Dorrance and Josephine Donaldson, two Lockerbie residents who helped me understand the impact that the bombing of Pan Am 103 had on the Scottish town when a terrorist attack caused the plane to explode overhead on December 21st, 1988. As a Syracuse University Remembrance Scholar for the 2019-2020 academic school year, the written account of my journey to Lockerbie not only seeks to define humanity in times of tragedy, but also explores my personal understanding of the terrorist attack based on the people I met.
