“…The Oromo women leading the march are not impressed by Merkel’s gender, and do not imagine any solidarity between this rich white imperialist and themselves. In this sense, the marchers in the Hiriira join a long tradition of Black and Afrodiasporic women organising in Berlin, movements born of the knowledge that the German state sought to render them out of place, and white German feminists’ racism (Florvil 2020; Lennox 1995). Black German social movements, led by Black women, demonstrate the agency and power that comes from this distinct positionality, one in which they “claim their color and their voices” (Lorde 1991:xiv).…”

“…Viewing the Hiriira’s songs as a conversation amongst sisters is an affirmation of women’s distinct political power, and sisterhood as its own institution. Resonating with local histories of Black German activism, while the Oromo women demonstrate solidarity within their own community, they do not extend this relationality to Merkel (Lennox 1995). Some combination of her race and class differences, both of which enhance her hierarchal positionality, separate her from this community.…”

“…ethnisierten Differenzen besser dokumentiert und (akademisch) aufgearbeitet. Als Überblicks-und Grundlagentexte sind hier insbesondere Bettina Stötzers "In-Differenzen" (Stötzer 2004) sowie der bereits 1995 in der German Studies Review erschienene Beitrag von Sara Lennox (Lennox 1995) zu nennen. Zudem liegen Dokumentationen einiger Kongresse vor, die zentrale Arenen der Auseinandersetzung darstellten (Arbeitsgruppe Frauenkongreß 1985; Verein für Sozialwissenschaftliche Forschung und Praxis für Frauen e.

“…59 Für mich sind dabei insbesondere die Selbstpositionierungen weißer, mehrheitsösterreichischer Feministinnen von Interesse, die in den (selbst-)kritischen Diskussionen seit den 1980er Jahren stets zur Debatte standen (vgl. Lennox 1995;Stötzer 2004). Feministische Migrantinnenorganisationen, Organisationen Schwarzer Frauen und von Aktivistinnen of Color stehen damit -nicht zuletzt, um nicht erneut den kolonialistischen Gestus einer Wissensproduktion über Andere zu wiederholen -nicht im Zentrum der Untersuchung, sondern erscheinen ‚nur' an jenen (vielen) Stellen, wo auf ihre politischen und theoretischen Positionen zurückgegriffen wird (ohne die es die hier untersuchten Diskussionen gar nicht gegeben hätte).…”
