ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I do this work indeed “on the backs of my ancestors.” I come from a line of strong Black women, and I like to imagine them with me during this entire project. So, first and foremost thank you Minnie, Ducky, Nanae, Juanita, and Prudence. I am thankful for the love and encouragement I received from my grandparents, who pushed me to do my very best. I’d like to thank my parents for their blind support. Finally, I’d like to thank my sister, who is a constant inspiration to me. I can’t wait to see where life takes you. I am thankful for my committee, who very patiently examined multiple drafts in various stages of disarray. Sara Lennox, thank you for your incredibly useful feedback and your thoughtful questions. Sky, thank you for not only helping me organize this document, but also for your help with the prospectus. I never would have made it to this stage without your help. Sara Jackson, thank you for jumping into my project with both feet. In your first years here, I appreciate the time you have devoted to me. Finally, thank you, TreaAndrea Russworm for your help with brainstorming, vision casting, and most of all, thank you for your emotional labor over the years. I would like to thank my partner, Doug Rappin, for his tireless encouragement, annoying enthusiasm, and faith in me, when I had none myself. Thank you for putting up with me even when I was a little prickly. Thank you to the UMass Graduate School for the Research Grant and the Summer Diversity Award; Coalition of Women in German for the Zantop Award; and UMass German and Scandinavian Studies Program for supporting my travel to Berlin, Hamburg, and Nuremberg. This financial support allowed me to watch the plays featured in my v dissertation and interview Black German theater practitioners. The continued contact allowed me to answer some lingering questions I had. It is also important to thank the theater practitioners involved in this project. They took the time to meet with me and very patiently answered my questions: Lara-Sophie Milagro, Leander Graf, Dela Dabulamanzi, Sebastian Fleary, Philipp Khabo Köpsell, Amina Eisner, and Elizabeth Blonzen. I would further like to thank the actors who tolerated me during my visits: Jonathan Aikins, Genifer Habbasch, Sithembile Menck, and Felix Franken. I would additionally like to thank the Wiggies who have encouraged me and aided me in this process: Maria Stehle, Allie Hill, Florence Feiereisen, and Elizabeth Bridges. I would also like to thank my sister scholars, who are a constant inspiration to me. I am in awe of you and eternally grateful for your willingness to help me, often with very short notice: Tiffany Florvil, Michelle Eley, Sonya Donaldson, Kimberly Juanita Brown, Priscilla Layne, Vanessa Plumly, Barbara Krauthamer, and Rachel Mordecai. Thank you also to Writing Center graduate students for their emotional support and explanations of the English language: Rebecca, Josh, Lisha, and Jenny. To my dear friends who really looked out for me during this process: Neelofer Qadir, Amanda Jorgenson, April Huffines, Dasha Bottan, Marwa Amer, Katrin Bahr, Emily McLean, and Sally Olson, I love you, and thank you for carrying me. Finally, I don’t know how I would have made it through this year without Dr. Mamta Dadlani. My success (and the success of many PoC graduate students) is a reflection of her and her work. Mamta, you are the real MVP. vi ABSTRACT THE DRAMA OF RACE: CONTEMPORARY AFRO-GERMAN THEATER MAY 2017 JAMELE C. WATKINS, B.A., UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA LAS VEGAS Ph.D., UNIVERSITY OF MASSACHUSETTS AMHERST Directed by: Professor Sara Lennox The first investigation of Afro-German theater, “The Drama of Race,” argues that Afro- German theater empowers as Black actors take ownership of a German stage, a white German space. My dissertation highlights four crucial Afro-German plays: real life: Germany (2008), Heimat, bittersüße Heimat [Home, bittersweet Home] (2010), Also by Mail (2013), and Mais in Deutschland und anderen Galaxien [Corn in Germany and Other Galaxies] (2015). In Chapter I, I discuss the cultural conditions in which Afro-German theater emerged—after an established literary corpus by Afro-German authors. Chapter II introduces the first Afro-German play and its improvisational methods as empowering for the teenage actors instead of an audience. I analyze the usage of Augusto Boal’s educational theater and the inclusion of African diasporic authors like bell hooks and Sojourner Truth. My analysis in Chapter III builds on the usage of “diasporic iconography” (Jacqueline Nassy Brown) to describe the Alltag [daily life] of many Black people in Germany and redefine traditional notions of Heimat [home]. Chapter IV reflects on a two- act family drama that utilizes the African diaspora to make allusions to literature, politics, and mythology. Chapter V examines a mother-son relationship. East Germany imprisons the mother who desires individuality in the communist state, and the Afro-East German son vii fails to establish meaningful relationships but is able to reconcile the mother-son relationship in outer space. Afro-German theater forges connections across boundaries to the diaspora, pushes national boundaries to put them into question, and creates a space for Black Germans in German society. viii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS .............................................................................................v ABSTRACT .....................................................................................................................vii CHAPTER I.

Il gruppo britannico torna nel capoluogo partenopeo a distanza di 8 anni esatti dallo suo primo e unico live in città (9 luglio 2011 a Bagnoli). Skin, Ace, Cass Lewis e Mark Richardson festeggiano 25 anni di carriera con un tour e un nuovo album tutto dal vivo - “25live@25 “pubblicato il 25 gennaio per Carosello Records - che documenta i migliori momenti della band sui palchi di tutto il mondo. Il doppio live contiene le canzoni degli esordi come “Little baby swastikkka”, “Selling Jesus”, “Intellectualise my blackness”, “Yes it’s fucking political”, brani ancora rilevanti e decisamente attuali. Gli Skunk Anansie sono un gruppo musicale con un sound e uno stile ben definito, una sintesi di heavy metal e musica di protesta rabbiosa, "nera" e femminista, con testi politicizzati e influenze ibride funk, blues, punk rock, reggae e hip hop. La band inglese è composta dalla cantante Skin (al secolo, Deborah Dyer) e da Cass (Richard Lewis) al basso e seconda voce, Ace (Martin Kent) alla chitarra e cori e Mark Richardson alla batteria e seconda voce.

  • Berlin - Wikipedia
    Berlin - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin Coordinates: 52°30′26″N 13°8′45″E Berlin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Berlin (/bɜːrˈlɪn, ˌbɜːr-/, German: [bɛɐ̯ˈliːn]) is the capital and the largest city of Germany as well as one of its 16 Berlin constituent states, Berlin-Brandenburg. With a State of Germany population of approximately 3.7 million,[4] Berlin is the most populous city proper in the European Union and the sixth most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Located in northeastern Germany on the banks of the rivers Spree and Havel, it is the centre of the Berlin- Brandenburg Metropolitan Region, which has roughly 6 million residents from more than 180 nations[6][7][8][9], making it the sixth most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Due to its location in the European Plain, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. Around one- third of the city's area is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers, canals and lakes.[10] First documented in the 13th century and situated at the crossing of two important historic trade routes,[11] Berlin became the capital of the Margraviate of Brandenburg (1417–1701), the Kingdom of Prussia (1701–1918), the German Empire (1871–1918), the Weimar Republic (1919–1933) and the Third Reich (1933–1945).[12] Berlin in the 1920s was the third largest municipality in the world.[13] After World War II and its subsequent occupation by the victorious countries, the city was divided; East Berlin was declared capital of East Germany, while West Berlin became a de facto West German exclave, surrounded by the Berlin Wall [14] (1961–1989) and East German territory.

  • Afrikanisches Viertel
    Afrikanisches Viertel Das Afrikanische Viertel in Berlin ist mit seiner großen Zahl an Afrika- und Standort Kolonialbezügen im Stadtbild einmalig in Deutschland. Alle Straßen und Plätze zwischen Seestraße, Müllerstraße und Volkspark Rehberge wurden in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts nach afrikanischen Orten, Ländern oder Personen der deutschen Kolonialgeschichte benannt. Die Geschichte dieser Straßennamen ist alltägliche Erinnerung und Mahnung zugleich. Mit rücksichtsloser Gewalt und mit Betrug bean - spruchte das deutsche Kaiserreich zwischen 1884 und 1918 Teile Afrikas als Kolonien. Diese oft vergessene Kolonialzeit war geprägt Ein Kolonialviertel für Berlin Um die »deutschen Kolonien in Straßennamen zu vergegenwärtigen« erhielten die Straßen und durch gesetzlich sanktionierten Rassismus, Willkür und Gewalt und Plätze zwischen Müllerstraße, Seestraße und Jungfernheide über systematische Ausbeutung der afrikanischen Bevölkerung. Jahrzehnte hinweg Namen, die mit dem von Deutschland bean - spruchten »Kolonialbesitz« in Afrika verbunden waren. Spiegelbild der deutschen Sicht auf Afrika in vier Epochen Das Afrikanische Viertel, dessen Entstehung vom Berliner Magistrat ausdrücklich als Kolonialviertel geplant war, entstand um 1900 am damaligen Stadtrand Berlins. Der U- Bahnhof Seestraße war Endhaltestelle der neuen Berliner Nordsüdbahn. An das Afrikanische Viertel schlossen sich weitläufige Grünflächen und Wälder an: Die Rehberge und die Jungfernheide. In den Rehbergen plante Carl Hagenbeck die entwürdigende Ausstellung von Menschen aus Kolonien in so genannten Völkerschauen. Die Namen für Straßen und Plätze im Afrikanischen Viertel wurden nicht auf einmal vergeben. In über 50 Jahren zwischen 1899 und 1958 sind immer wieder Straßennamen mit Afrika- und Kolonialbezug hinzugekommen. Insofern spiegelt die Geschichte des Viertels den Blick auf den afrikanischen Kontinent aus vier Epochen deutscher Geschichte wider, der sich im Laufe der Zeit grundlegend verändert hat.

  • First Century German Literature and Film
    Abstract Title of Document: AMERICAN BLACKNESS AND VERGANGENHEITSBEWÄLTIGUNG IN TWENTY- FIRST CENTURY GERMAN LITERATURE AND FILM Christina Wall, Doctor of Philosophy, 2014 Directed by: Professor Elke P. Frederiksen, Department of Germanic Studies This study represents a unique examination of the convergence of constructs of Blackness and racism in twenty-first century novels and films by white Germans and Austrians in order to demonstrate how these texts broaden discourses of Vergangenheitsbewältigung. The increased prominence of minority voices demanding recognition of their national identity within Nazi successor states has transformed white German perceptions of “Germanness” and of these nations’ relationships to their turbulent pasts. I analyze how authors and directors employ constructs of Blackness within fictional texts to interrogate the dynamics of historical and contemporary racisms. Acknowledging that discourses of ‘race’ are taboo, I analyze how authors and directors avoid this forbidden discourse by drawing comparisons between constructs of American Blackness and German and Austrian historical encounters with ‘race’. This study employs cultural studies’ understanding of ‘race’ and Blackness as constructs created across discourses. Following the example of Toni Morrison’s Playing in the Dark (1992), my textual analyses show how these constructs create a “playground for the imagination” in which authors confront modern German racism. My study begins with a brief history of German-African American encounters, emphasizing the role American Blackness played during pivotal moments of German national identity formation. The subsequent chapters are divided thematically, each one comprised of textual analyses that explore discourses integral to Vergangenheitsbewältigung. The third chapter examines articulations of violence and racism in two films, Oskar Roehler’s Lulu & Jimi (2008) and Michael Schorr’s Schultze gets the blues (2008), to explore possibilities of familial reconciliation despite historical guilt.

  • Heimattransgressions, Transgressing Heimat
    Vanessa D. Plumly Heimat Transgressions, Transgressing Heimat Black German Diasporic (Per)Formative Acts in the Decolonization of White German Heimat Landscapes Black/Afro-Germans1 embody the fear of sexual transgressions and miscegeny that racist discourse in the former German colonies instilled in white Germans and that Wilhelminian Germany legally sanctioned through the ius sangui- nus definition of German citizenship.2 The Third Reich further exploited this through its enactment of the Nuremberg laws, which once again considered Black Germans non-members of the imagined national German community. Today, Black Germans remain excluded from the reunited Berlin Republic, even though a new citizenship law passed in the Federal Republic in 1999 signaled a transition away from Germany’s blood-based definition toward a more civic one, and despite the fact that some Black Germans can trace their German ancestry over three or more generations.3 White Germans’ constant questioning of Black Germans’ origins because of their racial constitution and visible diasporic roots performatively enacts this resolute denial of their na- tional identity and belonging.4 1 The word Afro-German is used most often to denote Black Germans with one white German parent and one black or African/African diasporic parent, and Black German is most often used to denote anyone who chooses to identify with the term and has had similar experi- ences of racial exclusions. See Katharina Oguntoye, May Ayim (Opitz), and Dagmar Schultz, Farbe bekennen: Afro-deutsche Frauen auf den Spuren ihrer Geschichte, Frankfurt a.M. 1992, p. 10. 2 El-Tayeb makes clear that »›German blood‹ meant explicitly ›white blood‹«, in Fatima El- Tayeb, »We are Germans, We are Whites, and We Want to Stay White!« Amsterdamer Beiträge zur neueren Germanistik (2004), 56.1, pp.

  • POST-COLONIAL GHOSTS on the LOOSE in EUROPE Margarida Calafate Ribeiro 1
    FILHOS DE IMPÉRIO E PÓS-MEMÓRIAS EUROPEIAS CHILDREN OF EMPIRES AND EUROPEAN POSTMEMORIES ENFANTS D’EMPIRES ET POSTMÉMOIRES EUROPÉENNES Saturday, 5th May 2018 untitled | 2018 | Ana Vidigal POST-COLONIAL GHOSTS ON THE LOOSE IN EUROPE Margarida Calafate Ribeiro 1 The 100th anniversary of the Battle of the Lys fell on April 9, 2018. The presidents of Portugal and France as well as the Prime Minister António Costa took part in the celebrations and the television and the newspapers marked the event emphatically. Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa stressed the significance of the human sacrifice involved, and the need to recognise it; Emmanuel Macron described the Portuguese military cemetery of Richebourg as a “symbol not of nationalist rancour but of European friendship and solidarity,” designating the “shared past” as a space of public memory for future generations. Along the same lines, António Costa underlined during the closing ceremony that “a hundred years later, we celebrate peace and reconciliation between European peoples and our desire to build a common future together.” An exhibition opened, Roots, focussed on the descendants of the Portuguese soldiers buried in Richebourg and on very different memories of this familial, national and European history. POST-COLONIAL GHOSTS ON THE LOOSE IN EUROPE The exhibition called on us to re-interrogate this conjoined past in its organic relation to the present in Portugal, in France and in Europe. In European history, 1918 marks the end of the war and with it the disintegration of three great empires - Germanic, Austro-Hungarian and Russian - and the emergence of nine states - Austria, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Finland.

    PS32 Colonial Past in the Neo-Colonial Present 08:30 - 10:40 Friday, 20th April, 2018 Meeting Room 6 Track Track 5 08:35 - 08:55 PS32 Colonial Carcerality and the Neocolonial Indian Prison Mira Rai Waits Appalachian State University, Boone, USA Abstract Nestled within the elite Alipore district of Kolkata, capital of the Indian state of West Bengal, is the Alipore Central Jail. Still in use today, Alipore functions simultaneously as a memorial to anti-colonial resistance and as a testament to the lasting legacy of colonial infrastructure in the neocolonial setting. Constructed in 1910 using a radial plan, Alipore was commissioned to replace the dilapidated buildings of the old Alipore Jail, built a hundred years earlier. With its “modern” plan, this new Alipore promised to provide a more secure prison facility for Calcutta, which had become especially politically-charged, during the growing turbulence of the nationalist movement. In the decades that followed, many of the most prominent figures of the movement would reside within the jail as political prisoners. Today the cells that once contained these leaders have been repurposed as memorials; busts sit atop pedestals inside the cells with commemorative plaques marking the leaders’ dates of incarceration. When the British left India in 1947, the leaders of India’s newly-independent government, many of whom were political prisoners, viewed the reform of the colonial prison system as a top priority. Jail committees were formed and the Indian government sought the help of the UN to improve prison designs and management in the immediate aftermath of independence, however the vast majority of Indian states including, West Bengal, continue to this day to utilize colonial buildings and the colonial model of management.
