Listing Overview
The decolonial audio walk narrates the stories of the 106 Black children, women, and men at the Carp Pond in the summer of 1896. They were the performers of the first German Colonial Exhibition in Treptower Park. "Recruited" by the Imperial Government and colonial authorities in the German-colonized territories, they came to Berlin and had to perform the colonial staging of the exhibition organizers for an entire summer. Their life at the Carp Pond was not only marked by the racist gaze of the audience and the pseudoscientific research of ethnologist Felix von Luschan but also by many small and large acts of resistance. They resisted with humor and collective refusal. Listen and look around.
