»Nicht die Ersten – Bewegungsgeschichten von Queers of Color in Deutschland«
Past dates
1/23/25
7:00 PM
‘Nicht die Ersten’ (=Not the first ones) collects stories of queer BIPoC activist movements in Germany from the 1980s to the present day. It centers the accounts of contemporary activists and witnesses in writing history. The volume can be understood as an activist intervention: into a cis heteronormative history of anti-racist struggles on the one hand, and into a white narrative of queer history on the other. The book will be presented by Tarek Shukrallah and authors.
- Panelists: Tarek Shukrallah, Saideh Saadat-Lendle, İpek İpekçioğlu
