We warmly invite you to the opening of the poster exhibition
“Solidarity in (Post-)Colonial Spaces”
on July 9, 2025 at 5:00 PM
in the entrance area of the Bremen State and University Library (SuUB).
The exhibition was curated by students of Cultural Studies (BA) and Public History (MA). On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Bremen Africa Archive Association (Bremer Afrika Archiv e.V.), it explores solidarity in (post-)colonial contexts — particularly focusing on the Namibia Project and its collaboration with the Namibian liberation movement SWAPO.
Taking this initiative as its starting point, the exhibition explores how solidarity-based alliances were formed in Bremen, the challenges they faced, and their contributions to critically engaging with Germany’s colonial past. What did practical solidarity look like? What blind spots or pitfalls are visible from today’s perspective?
We look forward to your visit, stimulating conversations, and a shared reflection on postcolonial possibilities of remembrance.
Following a few opening remarks, the exhibition team will be available to answer questions and share insights regarding the content and creation process of the poster exhibition.
You are warmly invited to share your own stories of solidarity.
With kind regards,
The Exhibition Team
