Anger is loaded with information and energy.

Marronage is the movement towards making the destruction of imperialist white supremacist capitalist patriarchy real. Only then can we create something new. We must help each other realize that our reality is not a nightmare we can wake up from, but something we must rebel against.
\n<\/span><\/i>\u2013 Marronage, Marronage is Resistance<\/span><\/p>\n

In this second iteration of the series we invite Marronage, a Copenhagen-based decolonial feminist collective, to delve into their varied practice and reflect on the formats, contexts, affects and alliances that have shaped their work. They will also present a small installation displaying publications and other printed matter related to their practice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since 2016 Marronage has brought feminist and decolonial critiques to bear on Danish colonial amnesia as well as the colonial legacies of oppressive systems we contend with today: transnational adoption, detention centres, racist narratives in education, discrimination against undocumented people, to name just a few. The collective is a forum for conspiring together and dreaming of ways to dismantle modernity\u2019s structures.<\/span><\/p>\n

***<\/span><\/p>\n

Marronage<\/strong> is a Copenhagen-based decolonial feminist collective that emerged in 2016 to politicise the centennial of Denmark\u2019s sale of the former Danish West Indies to the United States that took place in 1917. Together with other like-minded collectives and comrades, they organize discursive events, workshops, demonstrations, actions, interventions, journal and book publications, video, audio, imagery, and financial support with the aim of working towards the abolition of a still-colonizing world.
