Podcast Episode #15 – Community Resilience

Januar 29th, 2025

(H)Our Realities – Episode #15 is out now on Refuge Worldwide!

Community Resilience: Building Safer
Spaces Amid the Right-Wing Shift
with Loubna & Aylin

IN THIS EPISODE
“Real men are right-wing. And as real men, we want real women,” states Maximilian Krah, an AfD candidate. Meanwhile, sexual violence is weaponized in conflicts worldwide, from Palestine to Sudan. Women and queer bodies are commodified and objectified, stripped of autonomy in a system built on patriarchal violence.

What is the significance of community and resilience in this context? In this episode, we reflect on our 5 year anniversary and the realities facing marginalized groups. We discuss BIWOC* Rising’s work in creating feminist spaces. This episode is a tribute to the fight for community and survival—now more essential than ever.

Listen here! Thank you to Refuge Worldwide for the platform and the support!

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.
