The Wretched of Today – Part II: Bangladesh – Dar al Janub

The Wretched of Today – Part II: Bangladesh

The Wretched of Today – A Discussion Series on Current Events in Afghanistan, Palestine and BangladeshWith this small series we want to examine current events in the global south for their historical dimension and not only ask ourselves whether we are in times of great upheaval, but rather where the changes are leading. To this end, we want to evaluate the victory of the Taliban and the associated defeat of the United States and its allies. Furthermore, we want to discuss the 11 day war of the Palestinian resistance against the Zionist colonial power and work out the consequences for both sides – the colonized and the colonizers – on the different levels in the spirit of Fanon. As a third round table, we turn our gaze to the bloody street protests in Bangladesh in spring 2021 and try to link local protests and their global dimension of imperial rule.Participants:Isra Ibrahim –
