Jasmina is a Serbian author, feminist, political activist (Women in Black, Code Pink), translator, and filmmaker.  In this TEDx presentation, she brings into consciousness the design of war beginning her story with the genocide in Srebrenica.  The killing of 8,000 muslims, a huge design of crime, is explored and linked to the abuse and pornography women in warfare.  Her message: Responsibility, ethics, morality: that is what design stands on.
