The decolonial exhibition “WirStimmen! For Resistant Alternatives to the Development Myth” was shown for the first time from November 1-28, 2019 at the August-Bebel-Institut in Berlin-Wedding(M\u00fcllerstra\u00dfe 163, 13353 Berlin<\/a>).<\/p>\n The aim of the exhibition is to show the intertwining of historically grown, postcolonial power and domination relations, as well as to present networks and actors of resistance. The focus is on locating histories that have been overwritten, silenced, forgotten, or marginalized (for example, anti-colonial resistance). This is illustrated above all by video and audio material from a total of eight interviews with activists from the Global South and North. Their resistant, creative and empowering strategies as well as other examples of global, social movements should inspire the visitors to reflect and become active themselves. The statements of the activists were divided into 4 focal points at four stations each. The first station MYTH DEVELOPMENT delves into the causes and the ideological foundations of the idea of global development that determines life on our planet. Their effects in the form of exploitation, racism, destruction, domination, and theft of land and soil are illustrated in the second station DEVELOPMENT HERRSCHAFT. Since the beginning of the domination of the “developed” people have resisted it. Topic of the third station: RESISTANCE. Not only the resistance against the conditions, but also the dream of a better life on our planet is unbroken. At the fourth station, we learn how LIBERATION can look like and be realized concretely.<\/p>\n Exhibition: <\/strong>November 1 – November 28, 2019 Accompanying events:<\/strong><\/p>\n Fri 01 November, 19-21 h | Vernissage<\/strong> REPORT ON THE VERNISSAGE HERE<\/a><\/p>\n Thu 07 November, 7pm-2pm | Film screening and discussion<\/strong> Thu Nov 14, 7pm-2pm | Discussion<\/strong> Thu 28 Nov, 7pm-2pm | Finissage<\/strong>
