dominated by man? Which roles do women play an concerts, in bands and on tour
etc.? Where do sexist behaviours exist and how can women react to them? The lecture
will concentrate on these and other questions -and after the lecture is planned
a discussion about the topics. Open for all gender. Number of the participiants: unlimited. Time: Friday, the 16th of September, 4-6 pm. Place: AJZ Kino, Heeper Str. 132 | |

| Annette
Profus [Essen], Yvonne Wolz: Instructed discussion on the topic " Criticism of the construct of the romantic two- person relation" | |
| Romantic
relations of two people only exist between two people, mostly between man and
women, they are exclusively heterosexist and full of claims to ownership. Even
in the left scene its not very different, just that its more proscribed to kiss
publicly and the whole gets shifted to private rooms. We want to discuss the construct
of the romantic "two person relation" and how a need for sexuality and
closeness can be stilled outside from this, what kind of alternatives do we have,
where are inhibitions and which role does for example competition amongst women
play.When we use text, films etc. we do not just want to discuss the subject on
a theoretical level, but to exchange about our own experiences in a safe context
( the private is still political). We will set the focus on a critical analysis
of, not on justification and disclosure of our own relation forms. Open for women, lesbians + transgender. Time: Saturday, the 17th of September, 6-9 pm. Place: AJZ Kino, Heeper Str. 132 | |

| Güler
Arapi, Mitja Sabine Lück [Bielefeld]: Persperctives on Racism and Antiracism in feminist settings | |
| In
this workshop we will illustrate different socially accesses- those affected by/
perspectives of colour and perspectives from dominant cultures- to the topic racism.
This happens with the aid of exercises who can make clear your own attitude to
racism. One central question could be: How does racism structure my live, and
affects my political and personal actions? How do I position myself in the context
of racism, although when I'm not personally affected? Because of the short time
we will just give you a short insight to the topic, following seminars can be
arranged with us. We, Güler Arapi und Mitja Sabine Lück, provide within the framework of "Girls Act- antiracist education" 1-3 day seminars since a few years. Our focus lies on the accentuation of the necessity of trans-cultural teams and the questioning of representation- politics with its dominant- culture structures. Open for all gender. Number of the participants: limited to 10 persons! Registration is required: girlsact@maedchentreff-bielefeld.de, or by phone: 0521 179450 Time: Saturday, the 17th of September, 11 am 6 pm. Place: Mädchentreff , Alsenstr. 28, 33602 Bielefeld | |

tampons were made into dress collages. Steffi tailors her deconstructed textil-
pieces for exhibitions, performances, and the very normal every day live. She
understands her creation as anti- uniforms, as moveable pictures, as very personal
contra- pieces who should offer a contrapart to the uniformed unity-porridge of

to the network of radical Textilprojects. The two will recreate throw- away- material
to wearable unicats. You can bring your own materials or or dig them out of the
"ragtreasure" ragbox. They will also care for tools. Anne and Steffi also work with material and sound collages. Anne is texting, talking, singing and screaming at spontaneous noise- performances in munichs' underground, steffi accompanies her with amplified sewing- and writing machine. Open for all gender.

Wen-Do-Group / AJZ [Bielefeld] Wen-DO | |
Wen-Do
is explicitly not a pure fight sport but a mixture of different disciplines. On
the one hand we will teach you useful and easy- to- learn techniques of self-
defence with which you can repulse. Another point will be the training of self-
assertion because self- defence does not just start by defending a physical attack.
Wen- Do offers you therefore a realistic view on your possibilities to defend
yourself with words, actions and glances. | |
