We are glad to be co-hosting the next Feminist Reading and Social Circle with yeswebleed on September 18, 2025.
DEI: Jenseits der Checkbox Fühlst du dich auch manchmal gefangen zwischen grellen Diversity-Versprechen, performativen Häkchen und symbolischen Gesten? In dieser Live-Folge von (h)our Realities sprechen Loubna Messaoudi (BIWOC* Rising), Niki Drakos (Frauenkreise) und Emine Demir (erzählt Geschichten zwischen Film und Lyrik und begleitet seit über zehn Jahren machtkritische sowie dekoloniale Prozesse durch Coaching, Moderation und Prozessbegleitung) miteinander – auf Deutsch – über DEI (Diversity, Equity & Inclusion) in deutschen Kulturräumen.
Tan Brown shares how music became a tool for reflection, expression, and navigating the world. She touches on creativity, identity, and the realities of working as a femme person of color in the industry. 🎧📓 Meet Tan and other artists in our BIWOC* Rising space—individuals building culture on their own terms. We’re grateful to Tan for sharing her journey with us, both in person and now here with our online community! This is also a glimpse into who you’ll meet in our BIWOC* Rising space—powerful creatives like Beliban, shaping culture and pushing boundaries. Thank you, Beliban, for enriching our physical space and now also sharing your experiences and insights with our online community! ‚Strictly Business‘ is our monthly series on Instagram, where BIW*oC and TIN*BIPOC introduce themselves, their business/project, and their personal journey. Stay tuned for the next one! 🫂
It’s that time again! Summer, sunshine, and the return of the BIWoC* Rising Picnic 🌞🌿 This year’s theme is “Network & Hangs”, a relaxed space to meet new people, reconnect with old friends, and simply enjoy being together under the open sky. It’s been an intense year, especially for BIWoC* and TINBIPoC — let’s take this moment to unwind and come together.
We're often told to face money alone - but that isolation keeps us serving money, instead of letting money serve us. This workshop is a chance to shift that narrative, together.
Speaking Without Othering with Selin M. Rethinking Inclusion as a Felt Experience We often talk about inclusion, but what if our words unintentionally create distance instead of connection? In this workshop, we slow down and ask deeper questions: How do we speak with people, not about them? How can we welcome without demanding personal disclosure?
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.
