Empire of Equality – Edit-a-thon in Berlin 2024
Empire of Equality – Edit-a-thon in Berlin 2024
11-12 December 2024 | Office of Wikimedia Germany
Empire of Equality? is a research project that seeks to make the intersections of the queer and colonial history of the Weimar Republic and German Empire visible. While there is much research on Germany’s colonial history and the queer nightlife scene of Berlin, the two have rarely been brought together before and are often at odds with one another. We explore their common history with the rise of eugenics, the early gay rights movement, and individual stories of queer and BIPOC people grappling with its consequences. In this program, we invite you to learn, watch and write about this “hidden” history.
In these workshops, you can learn how to edit Wikipedia. You can come to one or both workshops. The dates are:
- 11 December 2024 - 18:30-20:30
- 12 December 2024 - 18:30-20:30
Please let us know that you’re coming by registering here. Please bring a laptop, if possible – they work much better for editing Wikipedia than smartphones.
