Das Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ) hat im Auftrag des [Deutschen Zentrums für Integrations- und Migrationsforschung (DeZIM-Institut)](https://www.dezim-institut.de/veranstaltungen/) einen Bericht zu **Intersektionalität und Antidiskriminierung in Deutschland** erstellt. Die Vorstellung findet am 18. September in Berlin statt.

Das Bündnis #GegenBerufsverbot lädt Freund\*innen, Kolleg\*innen und Schwestern\* und Brüder\* ein. Geleitet von Nurêy Özer soll es darum gehen, einen Raum für Austausch zu schaffen, die Rolle von Kopftuchverboten im eigenen Leben zu erörtern und mehr über die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen des sog. Neutralitätsgesetzes zu lernen. In diesem Workshop sind wir die Expert*innen unserer eigenen Erfahrungen.

"It's not about race, it's about class!" We no longer want to engage in the race vs. class debate and aim to reclaim the conversation about class.

With the publication, "Reach Everyone on the Planet ...," the Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ) and the Gunda Werner Institute want to honor Kimberlé Crenshaw and to illustrate the importance of the intersectional approach through a variety of contributions.

30 years ago, Kimberlé Crenshaw coined the term "intersectionality" to describe the interplay of different forms of oppression. Let's celebrate intersectionality in Europe!

Over the years I have argued that we can learn much more about intersectionality by understanding intersectionality not as a thing, but a way of seeing, thinking and doing — a way of talking back to the limited conceptions of social power that constrain our ability to take meaningful transformative action.

In November 2018, CIJ came together to celebrate its one year anniversary in a big community gathering and open space event. Activists and community leaders from across Europe convened in Berlin for a joyful, empowering event that connected us, helped unite our communities, and created ideas and strategy for the coming year.

The time has finally come! The Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ) will hold its First Community Open Space in Berlin, as a follow-up to the inauguration conference which took place in September last year.

This European symposium will take place on 3 October 2018 in Brussels and a joint project by the European Network Against Racism (ENAR) in partnership with the Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ).

The third edition of the Symposium Black Feminism, Womanism and the Politics of Women of Colour in Europe is taking place in Berlin! CIJ is proud partner of this wonderful event meant to bring WoC perspectives to the forefront.
