Klasse, a Meme-Workshop!
19. May
A creative workshop on class, classism, and memes with Caren Miesenberger.
The event takes place in C 40.164, the event language is German.
Studying is great and all, but why does everyone talk in such a weird way that you can't understand anything? Why do I have to work three jobs to afford this? Did everyone sitting with me in that lecture basically have teacher parents with newspaper subscriptions and violin classes?
If you find yourself asking these or similar questions, come to Klasse, a meme workshop!
Over thoe course of one day, we'll explore classism as a form of discrimintation and make memes about it. What actually is class anyway? Where do I stand? And why is class discrimination still a problem in Germany today?
That's what we'll be digging into – along with making "klasse" (=amazing) memes and memes about class (hehe). The workshop is meant to be fun and offer an easy entry point into what can be a pretty tough topic.
Klasse, a meme workshop! will be facilitated by Caren Miesenberger. She is a cultural journalist (including for DLF Kultur, WDR COSMO), initiated the workshop series FEMINIST MEME SCHOOL in 2018, and currently holds a teaching position on memes at HBK Braunschweig.
