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.

Workshop: Mindfulness – your Superpower at Work and in Life

Oktober 2, 2025

Mindfulness can support us in both life and work, helping us notice, pause, and build healthier patterns. In this session, Ly Pham from bcom.social will guide participants through what mindfulness is (and what it isn’t), what kinds of changes it can bring, and simple practices to take home or into the workplace.

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.
