Talking about sterilization in airports - some thoughts on doing public engagement and the Quipu Project
The subject of the forced sterilizations in Peru has become more a part of public debate than it was four years ago when we started the Quipu Project, largely thanks to the courage and persistence and resilience of the organizations that have worked to collect testimonies and scramble for media attention and legal redress. If Quipu has served to strengthen some of those efforts, then we would be delighted. But let’s be honest, it still isn’t very well known outside of Peru. My Bristol colleague Karen Tucker and I are travelling to Peru (in December 2017) to participate in some events as part of the ‘Tying Quipu’s Key Knots’ research grant awarded to us by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. This follows on from our involvement in the Quipu Project, an online interactive documentary about the subject, that amplifies the testimonies of Peruvians who were affected by the 1990s Population Programme orchestrated by then President Alberto Fujimori.
Normally when I travel I bury myself in books and films and focus on the work I am about to do. This time I resolve to tell everyone I come into contact with what I am up to. The point of this trip is to do what people who work in universities call Public Engagement, and to reflect upon what doing this outside the UK might mean. So I may as well start now, engaging the members of the public I come across on the journey.
In Bristol, at 6am on a Sunday morning, Karen and I share a taxi to the airport. On the way from my house to hers, I tell our taxi driver we are going to Peru. Wow, he says. Long journey. Got family there? No, I explain, we’re working, on a project about the unconsented sterilizations of thousands of Peruvians in the 1990s. Oh right, he says, like in India. Yeah. Then we talk with more animation about traffic lights for a while.
On passing through passport control in Bristol airport, I’m stopped by a representative of the Office of National Statistics, who is conducting some kind of survey about how much money people spend when they travel. Peru, I say, when she asks where I’m heading. Exciting! she replies. Machu Picchu? No, I reply, I’m going to participate in some workshops with women who were sterilised without their consent in the 1990s. This doesn’t put her off, and she looks interested. We made an interactive documentary about it, and then a short film, which was on the Guardian website, I say. Perhaps you saw it? No I didn’t, sorry. It sounds interesting, she says, but unfortunately the questionnaire (she is tapping my answers into a childproof tablet) is happy that you have answered enough questions now. Good luck!
I feel pleased that I have successfully navigated two conversations before coffee.
Queuing to get on our flight from Bristol to Amsterdam, I am intercepted by a burly man in a tie who introduces himself as Police and asks to look at my passport. I’m still proud of my passport, with its European Union logos and aspirations, so I’m happy to hand it over. Peru, I tell him, when he asks me where I am heading. Oh, he says, raising half an eyebrow. Holidays? No, I say, did you know that several thousand Peruvians were sterilized without their consent in the 1990s? He makes no response. I’m a historian of Latin America, I say, I am working on getting this history more widely known. The [police] man gestures towards the Colombian stamps in my passport. And how do you explain these, he asks with the inclination of a man who has watched Narcos on Netflix and mistakenly thinks he knows something about the country. They put them in there when I went to Colombia, I explain. This does not satisfy my interrogator. I am a historian of Latin America, I repeat. I feel like I am able to do my job better if I go there now and again. He is mollified. Yes, it is important to do one’s job properly, we agree. I am allowed to leave the UK and go to Peru. On the flight from Bristol to Amsterdam I am seated next to a chatty man from Bath who is and looks like a regular attendee at the Glastonbury festival, aged around sixty, who is travelling to Valencia in Spain to visit his girlfriend. Normally I would bury my face in a book and ignore conversational advances, even from someone as sympathetic as this, because I tend to be unprepared for whatever event I am travelling towards and therefore need to use the flight, or train, to make up for lost preparation. But today I am perfectly prepared for my next interlocutor. We talk at length during the hour’s journey about the forced sterilizations in Peru, the Green Party’s strategy on air travel, the need to teach languages in ways that make kids want to learn them, the challenges of Catholic Church teachings on contraception, racism as a legacy of colonialism and how much it would cost to hand-make a trumpet in the UK.
When I get off the plane in the Netherlands, I feel pleased that there are four more people who know about the forced sterilizations in Peru than there were this morning.
There is a direct flight from Amsterdam to Lima, and I wrote this sat next to a tired Peruvian man who feel straight asleep after ignoring my attempts to talk to him.
I’ll be in Peru until 14 December.
