FEMINIST SHORTS NIGHT

Januar 29th, 2025

MOVIE NIGHT
curated by canan turan

Join us for our first Feminist Shorts Night, featuring five empowering short films. Curated by BIWOC* Rising member Canan Turan, the films highlight female-centered stories and were handpicked from the Tallgrass Film Festival 2024. All proceeds go directly into covering our rent to keep the BIWOC* Rising Space going – especially with political funding cuts.

All proceeds go towards keeping our space open. With political funding cuts, your support is vital for maintaining our community space.

EquiNet Prelaunch – End of Year Networking Event

November 3, 2025

Let’s network for equality – ending the year connected and empowered!
Economic exclusion is real, and many of us have experienced it this year.
Whether you’re a migrant or BIPOC entrepreneur, founder, freelancer, artist, or just starting out, we want to hear your needs and concerns.

Our new project EquiNet calls for more justice by empowering entrepreneurs from marginalized communities, helping businesses to turn diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) into action.

Before our official launch in early 2026, join us for our End-of-Year Networking Event:
Online: Tuesday, 18 November | 18:00–19:30
In Person: Thursday, 4 December | 18:00–21:00 | BIWOC* Rising Workspace

Let’s gather, chat, and connect with like-minded changemakers to promote equality and diversify business ecosystems!

INTERSECTIONAL WORK & SOCIAL CLUB

BIWOC* Rising is the first intersectional work & 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.
