Inhalt

Black artists in Germany find themselves – necessarily – in a position where double consciousness, subversiveness and resistance – both implicit and explicit – become important strategies for surviving in this predominantly white environment. The Little Book of Big Visions. How to be an Artist and Revolutionize the World, the first publication in the English-language series Witnessed, answers the questions of what truly egalitarian communities and societies might look like and what role Black cultural workers play in the realization of such visions. What would Black artistic practices within such visionary communities look like? What is beyond reaction and resistance? This book aims to contribute to a discourse underrepresented in Germany by enabling a discussion of the current situation of Black cultural workers in Germany and by focusing on how contemporary Black cultural workers in Germany create and communicate visions of equal opportunities.
