"WASEEM by WORD UP! with a concert on the topic of hip-hop & anti-racism.

Hip-hop culture is a global, very diverse and political (youth) movement in which socially/structurally disadvantaged people can speak out, raise their voices and make themselves heard. Therefore, hip hop can be understood as an anti-racist empowerment and political movement. Through the history of hip hop we can learn a lot about anti-racism and decolonisation and in the WORD UP! workshops rappers and poetry slammers can make social conflicts and disadvantages visible with their stories - WORD UP!
Regarding the workshop, you can find more information here.

We want to close the evening with a live concert by Waseem. Waseem is a German-Egyptian artist & activist, part of the international rap crew DSDNG, DJ at KREW and poet at i,Slam. He also organises hip-hop events himself & the AusARTen Fertival in Munich. He is on the federal board of Die Urbane, a hip-hop party in the Office for Arts & Culture. All his activities are anti-racist & empowering and you can hear that in his music - German rap with oldschool flavour and political, positive & poetic lyrics. You should experience this multi-talented activist live!

WORD UP! is a project of the Bezirksjugendrings Oberbayern und des Kreisjugendrings Ebersberg.
