What does the cityscape tell us about our history - and what is concealed? In this Lunch & Learn with Justice Mvemba, founder of deSta- Dekoloniale Stadtführung, we will take a critical look at colonial continuities in public space, using the example of the African Quarter in Berlin. Street and square names, monuments and urban structures show how colonial history is still visible (and effective) today. This compact format provides companies that deal with diversity, social responsibility and discrimination-sensitive communication with new perspectives and food for thought. The input can optionally be supplemented by a guided tour.
