Biting Back - Lesung und Gespräch zur Ausstellung "Tausend Töpfe - was Essen uns angeht"

In the organizer's words:

Biting back - reading and talk

Can food be resistant or cooking be political? What (anti-)colonial traces can be traced in drinks, dishes, food and eating and drinking habits? And what desires and wishes do we express through what we (don't) eat? These and other questions are addressed in "Biting Back". To mark the opening of the exhibition "A thousand pots - what food concerns us", the curatorial team will be discussing the book with its authors.

Meryem Choukri works on resistant archives of intersectional feminist movements in Germany. She advises and gives workshops. Meryem studied in Lüneburg and London and is doing her doctorate in Giessen and Coventry. She feels at home in Hamburg, Salé and Koblenz. Loves good stories and good food and people with whom she can share both.

Fallon Tiffany Cabral researches the negotiation of race and racism in families of Black people and PoC in Germany. She is particularly interested in curious, often hidden (post-)colonial traces in everyday diasporic family life.

The event will be held in German at Zwischenraum.
