FEMINISMUS und HUMOR - und wie das geht!
Feminists are often accused of NOT having a sense of humor.
But humor was and is an essential component of feminist criticism and feminist strategies. On October 23 and 24, humor was explored as a means of transport for serious feminist concerns. Examples of feminist action in everyday life were tried out together. In order to cover as broad a spectrum as possible, prominent contributors from various areas of feminist humor were brought in: e.g. the legendary performers from Les Reines Prochaines and the linguist and pioneer of German feminist language criticism Luise F. Pusch. The result was mischievous smirks, cheeky giggles and loud laughter!
