Historical Events
The "Historical Events" category brings together interviews that reference key incidents of the Greek and Cypriot history throughout the 20th century. Interviewees share experiences of war, displacement, political upheaval, and resistance. Some narrators participated directly in these events, while others recount their impact on personal or family histories. Despite not relating to Canadian life, interviewees feel compelled to include these events in their discussions, underscoring their lasting significance and deep personal meaning as integral to their identity and understanding of heritage.
