Signs against prejudice and racism

The student project "Mensch, Görlitz!" presents itself at the action weeks against racism in the district of Görlitz.

Actively setting an example for tolerant and peaceful coexistence in the district is Monique Ritter's intention and goal. The student project "Mensch, Görlitz!" , led by the teacher for special tasks at the Faculty of Social Sciences, will take part in the action weeks against racism in the district of Görlitz with a citizens' exhibition.

The exhibition will be on display from March 14 to 27 at the IBZ St Marienthal in Ostritz . On March 21, former students of the project will present the project on site.

The "Mensch, Görlitz!" project aims to address and appeal to as many people in Görlitz as possible.

"Our mission is to make visible and promote the exchange and encounter of diverse voices from Görlitz on socio-politically relevant topics with the clear aim of strengthening the perspectives of people with experience of flight and migration in public discourse," explains Monique Ritter.

This issue, which is viewed from a racism-critical and post-colonial perspective, is now being addressed in the form of citizens' exhibitions with accompanying discussion rounds.

The project was funded by the Free State of Saxony via the Saxon Participation Fund and the Görlitz District Office, Integration Department.
