On February, 24, 2022, the Russian army attacked Ukraine forcing millions of people to flee their homes seeking safety and protection within Ukraine itself or to neighboring countries. Faced with such an emergency, European countries decided quickly and without much bureaucracy that Ukrainian refugees would receive temporary protection for up to three years without having to apply for asylum, with rights to a residence permit and access to education, housing and the labor market. However, not all people fleeing Ukraine could access such freedom of movement or protection. Black and brown refugees were met with a different kind of welcome at the borders and beyond them. To talk about this situation Jennifer Kamau speaks with Nora Brezger from the Flüchtlingsrat Berlin and Dalís Pacheco Salcedo, from the Universität der Künste Berlin.

With European countries tightening migration even more after the ‘Summer of Migration' in 2015, 500 people from Yemen arrived on the South Korean island of Jeju in 2018 seeking asylum. In response, 700 million people signed an online public petition against their asylum acceptance and a constitutional amendment on asylum law. The fierce backlash in South Korea came from not only nationalists - but also people who had declared themselves as feminist. Young-Rong Choo and Aram Lee join to discuss the reckoning this moment sparked for the feminist movement in South Korea and how migration, racism, and feminisms from South Korea to Germany are deeply intertwined.

Jennifer and Denise discuss with Lucía Muriel and Jasmin Eding about mental health, mental illness, isolation, and torture - and how we can create a support network for migrant and refugee women living in Lagers. They unpack how issues of mental health for migrant women are linked to the traumatic experiences that lead women to flee, the traumatic experiences they had on their journeys to Europe, the precarious living conditions and isolation in the refugee shelters, which are never addressed, and above all - the fear of deportation. All of which is the direct result of the ongoing structural violence of patriarchy, white supremacy, colonialism, capitalism, and sexism. With music from Mercedes Sosa, Nina Simone.

We also look at how these dynamics were heightened during the Covid19 lockdowns - affecting many of our lives and our children. Céline is active in various anti-racist initiatives such as the Berlin Muslim Feminists and KOP - Campaign for the Victims of Racist Police Violence. Céline worked at the anti-discrimination advice service of Each One Teach One e.V., which offers counselling for Black, African and Afro-Diasporic people and carries out monitoring on anti-Black racism.

Dr. Natasha A. Kelly is an academic activist, visualutionist and afrofuturist. She joins Jennifer Kamau from IWS for a deep dive into the history of racism in Germany - the origins and continuities of German (and European) Colonialism and a look at “the other side of the coin”: Black German history. We discuss stories of resistance, the history of Black movements in Germany and the Gerhart-Hauptmann-Schule occupation where IWS was formed and where we met Natasha who was taking on a liaison role at that time. Natasha also draws parallels between now and 100 years ago when W.E.B. Du Bois wrote “The Comet”, which Natasha's latest book - “The Comet - Afrofuturism 2.0” reintroduces readers to. In 1920, the world was recovering from the last major global pandemic - the so-called Spanish Flu - and the USA from the “Red Summer” of 1919, which saw a wave of race riots and white supremacist mobs attacking and killing African-Americans in 30+ cities across the country following a number of peaceful protests against the racial violence. Sound familiar? Just as Du Bois did, Natasha challenges us to envision and create the futures we want for ourselves. If we are demonstrating, we should not just be thinking about what we are demonstrating against, but also what are we demonstrating for!

IWS RADIO

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 13, 2020 70:13


In this episode, we go deeper into understanding anti-semitism within the context of racism in German society. COVID-19 gave rise to a range of conspiracy “theories” - which are often explicitly or implicitly anti-Semitic. A well known anti-semitic trope is the image of the Jew controlling the media or the finance world - and now this has been adapted and we see the image of the Jew as a likely “mastermind” behind the pandemic. This aside, what about the mainstream discourse in Germany that paints the Jews as eternal victims? To challenge these narrow and racist representations, Sharon from IWS invited Chana Dischereit who is active with the Roma and Sinti Association Baden-Württemberg and the NSU Civil Tribunal, Iris Hefetz from Jewish Voice for Peace in the Middle East - Germany, and Inna Michaeli - a sociologist and feminist queer activist. We hare and discuss our experiences in Germany, on diverse Jewish identities, anti-semitism and political activism. With music by Yasmine Hamdan, Deaf Chonkey and Frau Sammer.

There has been a wrench thrown into the well-oiled machine that is IWS Radio. Oh sure Jayman has been ready for the show for days as usual, but Matt not so much because in spite of his lack of customer service skills, he has to cover the Beer Mine for others, so...instead of cancelling the show, we will press on, wing it, and work without a net. We have no idea of what we will talk about. No idea if we will play any audios, play any music, or drink any booze, or perhaps...we will drink quite a bit of booze. One thing IS for certain, we'll still bring the funny, and of course Jamie MapleLeaf will be there in order to suck the fun from the show. So...

We all have wedding disaster stories. Some of them are funny. Some are sad. Some are unbelievable. Guy and Jamie got married on Saturday and it was, well, very unfortunate™ to say the least. Most of the wedding party was drunik and angry. The staff at IWS Radio is either angry, hurt or just completely bewildered. The bride and groom are ... CREEPY AF! And, if a movie was made about the wedding and reception the entire premise would get laughed out of the studio as being just too preposterous to even bother with.  Nurse Doom and Schmoop have many thoughts on this whole thing, while Joshua is appauled at the decor and lack of organization, and Bobby Kraft is straight up insulted and unhappy. Matt-Man, Jayman will be hanging out at the bar reliving all the debachery, and an EPICALLY hungover Tiny Head will be posted up in the bathroom asking "what the hell happened?" Plus, hopefully we'll be joined by the bride herself if she gets some free time to call in from wherever the hell the honeymoon will be. All this pluss YOUR CALLS @ 661.244.9852!
