Nacht der Vielfalt - Eine afrodiasporische Literaturreise

In the organizer's words:

Come and join us at StadtPalais - Museum für Stuttgart for an inspiring night full of literature and culture from the African diaspora. In a multifaceted event, we would like to introduce you to the art of writing and being black from an intercultural perspective.

The authors Emilia Roig and Josephine Apraku will talk to moderator Ridal Carel Tchoukuegno about their writing process as Black authors and present a work that is particularly important to them. The starting point is a sentence by Roig: "Even as a child, I internalized that my father does the more important work." This gives rise to our central question: How deep do power structures reach into our most intimate relationships - and can art really liberate us? Roig sheds light on intersectionality and social justice, while Apraku questions rigid gender roles and understands love as a political act. Together, they will discuss how social conditions shape our lives and loves.

Afterwards, you can expect drinks, Afro-diasporic literature, DJ AfroPunk and a spectacular special guest - just as is customary in many African cultures.

Get your ticket and be part of this special evening full of literature, culture and exchange!
