Autonome Schule Zürich

«Szenen der Flucht»
Papierlose Zeitung

Migrants take the floor themselves. They talk about migration and politics, life and resistance from their own perspective - personally, journalistically and poetically.

  • Thu 12/12 20:00 – 21:30

Copyright: Collective work by the ASZ art class, charcoal on paper. Depicted are people who have made the crossing from Libya to Lampedusa (drawn from photographs by Dan Kitwood).

Writing means raising your own voice. To put your own experience into words. But which voices are heard in public? In Switzerland, people usually talk about migrants rather than with them. The Autonome Schule Zürich's Papierlose Zeitung does things differently. Here, the migrants themselves have their say. They talk about migration and politics, life and resistance from their own perspective - personally, journalistically and poetically.

Various authors read from the latest issue of Papierlose Zeitung: stories of flight, of the adversities and rays of hope afterwards. These provide insights into the different realities of life for those who have been rejected, temporarily or permanently admitted. The reading will be accompanied by visual art and music.

Free entry.
