Program
Healing through Writing – Writing about Discrimination
KW Institute for Contemporary Art (Mediation room)
Auguststraße 69, 10117 Berlin
Not wheelchair accessible
German
With Thi Minh Huyen Nguyen and Limo
Who am I with my experiences of discrimination, and how can I defend myself against discrimination without feeling emotionally exhausted?
In this writing-based focus tour, we want to take time to write about our experiences of discrimination and how they have shaped us. In addition, we would like to look together at various strategies in discriminatory situations to find out which work best for our individual situations. We will try to answer these questions through writing exercises, voluntary dialogue rounds, and political education methods.
The focus tour is aimed at people who experience racism. Writing experience is not necessary.
