What does it mean to look at a city from a Black and queer feminist perspective? In this Lunch & Learn with Justice Mvemba, founder of deSta- Dekoloniale Stadtführung, we dive into the struggles, stories and resistances of marginalized communities. The tour makes queer and Black feminist traces in Berlin's cityscape visible - often ignored or suppressed chapters of our history. For companies that deal with diversity, justice and inclusive corporate culture, this format offers important impulses, new perspectives and space for reflection. The input can optionally be supplemented by a guided city tour.
