SUN September 7, 2014, 11:00 AM-11:30 AM
Bischofshof
Panashe Chigumadzi is a young author and visionary from Zimbabwe. She’s convinced that new stories and ways of telling them are precisely what are needed in order to overcome still-prevailing colonialist clichés and perspectives and to go beyond them to construct a new African identity. She’ll give an account of her work, experiences and successes in the Sunday lecture in the idyllic courtyard of the Bischofsitz.
