Grada Kilomba: Plantation Memories ***FÄLLT AUS***
Grada Kilomba’s book explores everyday racism as a psychological reality. The combination of these two words, ‘plantation’ and ’memories’, describes how racism is experienced as a violent shock that suddenly places the Black subject within a colonial scene where, as in a plantation scenario, one is imprisoned as the subordinate and exotic ‘Other’. The author will read from her best-selling book ’Plantation Memories’ a compilation of episodes of everyday racism written in the form of short psychoanalytical stories, which was recently re-printed.
