Signals 2 Noise : Say NO in your mother tongue – A circular session

What is our common language? What knowledge do we bring to a space ? Do we feel heard?

How do we deal with forms of microcolonialism within us, our communities and ourselves, within our bodies and minds. Is adopting a dominant language a sacrifice? How to be open but stay strong? What is periphery and semi-periphery and how to live together in coexistence, how do we voice our voices within dominant cultures?

The session is about anti-colonial language, micro-colonialisms and intra-European hierarchies, musicality of language.

How we participate and self-inflict exclusion under semi-periphery in neoliberalism/capitalism?

Please bring an untranslatable word from your mothertongue!
