Decolonize the Internet
If you want to learn how to write, edit and publish articles on Wikipedia, then this is for you!
During its inception, the internet was seen as a vital instrument for democracy and equality. In 2020, amidst a global pandemic and racial inequalities that are very much still alive, it is time to ask: Whose stories are told and who is telling these stories on the internet? And how do Artificial Intelligence, Algorithms and Bots shape our view of the world and perpetuate racisms and inequalities? This is where the new Goethe-Institut project “Decolonise the Internet” sees its core.

Feminisms instead
That little word that ruffles feathers and brings out strong reactions.
A white people’s thing!
Not African!
Only bitter women are feminists!
Are our mothers in markets feminists? Yet, they work hard!
