Unlearn the Ivory Tower: Decolonizing Minds, Challenging Racism and Sexism in Academia

Workshops

Portait of Josephine Apraku

Online: December 12, 2024, from 13:30 to 15:00

Our present is characterized by colonial structures and the various forms of oppression that support them. But what
is systemic oppression and how does it affect the working context? Josephine Apraku explores these questions in an
impulse followed by self-reflection.

About the speaker: 
Josephine Apraku is an African studies scholar, author, lecturer and trainer for intersectional anti-racist educational
work. Josephine's texts have been published by EDITION F, Missy Magazine and Tagesspiegel, among others. “Kluft
und Liebe” (Eden Books, 2022) examines oppression in romantic relationships; ‘Mein Workbook zu Rassismus’ and
the interactive card set ”Lasst uns über Rassismus reden!” (2023, Familiar
Faces) invite people to engage in self-reflection critical of racism.


Most recently, Josephine's children's books “Tschüss Uroma” (2023, bli bla blub) and “Ein ganz normaler Tag”
(Carlsen) were published. In 2024, “Mein Workbook zu Rassismus” was named one of the most beautiful German
books by the Stiftung Buchkunst.
