Program of the day
2 p.m.: Raising of the Progressive Flag in front of the university
Then, at around 2.30 p.m., we will move to the Classroom of the Future and start the reading by two protagonists, whose stories are part of the book WIR SIND WIR by author Kobai Halstenberg and who will tell them themselves.
Afterwards, we will talk to each other.
About "WE ARE WE"
About the freedom to be us: Young trans* people talk about their experiences.
How do young trans* people feel in today's society? What is it like for them to be born with a body in which they do not recognize themselves? What obstacles do they face? How did parents and friends react to them coming out?
Eighteen young people talk about their transition, about exclusion and discrimination, but also about empowering encounters and acceptance. They talk about their wishes and dreams - and the happiness of finding themselves.

Press reviews of "WIR SIND WIR"
"This book is also an enrichment for the public debate, which all too often ignores the realities of trans people's lives." (Inga Hofmann; Tagesspiegel)
"This book needs to be talked about!" (Christian Höller; queer.de)
