STORIES OF RESISTANCE
In this online workshop, Shams el Layl will guide us on a deep dive into the realm of poetry, myths, and legends from Indigenous people of feminine and marginalized genders. You are invited to bring stories and poems that you love or have created. Together, we will explore storytelling as a tool to challenge white supremacy across various spaces, including work, and as a way to reconnect with ancestral wisdom. Let’s engage with the lessons woven into these stories, reflect on how they move us, and find comfort in sharing these moments and this learning together.

Workshop: Reimagining Safe Spaces

Januar 29, 2025

Together, we will share our stories and experiences, revisit different scenarios, and use our creativity to turn them into practices. Utilizing printmaking techniques such as linocut, woodcut, and paper-cut, we will collectively map out our frustrations, narratives, desires, and imagined spaces.

INTERSECTIONAL WORK & SOCIAL CLUB

BIWOC* Rising is the first intersectional co-working space & social club in Berlin and Germany. This safer space is exclusively for women, trans, inter and non-binary people who identify as Black, indigenous or of Colour! Through training programs, empowerment workshops, and a work-desk in the heart of Berlin-Kreuzberg, BIWOC* Rising is creating a new working culture – a working culture that transcends the white, homogenous, capitalist one that has been a core driver of gentrification and marginalization in Berlin.
