Press Training with the Aktivistinnen-Agentur at the RTG Contradiction Studies

On November 29th, an interview and podium training with Emily Laquer from the Aktivistinnen-Agentur took place on the premises of the RTG Contradiction Studies. During this training, the members of the RTG were able to learn how to communicate their scientific findings and research results to the press confidently and assuredly, be it on television, radio or in the newspaper. The training was illustrated with concrete examples and exercises.

Aktivistinnen-Agentur e.V. is an independent, non-partisan and non-profit association by and for activists. They offer training, coaching, mediation and workshops.

Organized by: Caro Zieringer, Lilli Hasche und Samia Mohammed

Bhabha on enlightenment and coloniality

“Homi Bhabha says about the contradiction between the ideals of the enlightenment, claims to democracy and solidarity and simultaneous colonization and ongoing coloniality: ‘That ideological tension, visible in the history of the West as a despotic power, at the very moment of the birth of democracy and modernity, has not been adequately written in a contradictory and contrapuntal discourse of tradition.’”

Is contradiction eurocentric?
