The presentation involves interviews with survivors of a failed state program to provide assistance to drought refugees in Northeast Brazil in 1932. This program included mandatory relocation of residents in certain areas to state sponsored concentration camps. Although local memories about the camps vary, narratives spoke about inhumane conditions and high mortality, fomenting the perception that the government's goal was to eliminate certain residents. Past events are tied to current social justice issues.Mary Kenny, Anthropology Department, ECSU
