This course seeks to explore possible intersections (and divergences) between Black German, Turkish German and German Jewish experiences and aesthetic interventions into German public and political discourses on memory, racism, citizenship, immigration, and history. We'll engage in close readings of literary texts in tandem with secondary sources, examining similarities, overlap, and differences.
