VIDEO: Zakiyyah Iman Jackson | On Race, Species and Becoming Human

A Series of More-Than-Human Encounters #4. To highlight the International Day Against Racism, Zakiyyah Iman Jackson takes the floor to share her innovative thinking on the intricate relations between race, species and the idea of ‘the human’.

AUDIO: On Enclosed Spaces and The Great Outdoors

First intended as a performative conference, On Enclosed Spaces and the Great Outdoors - 4. Grounding has been reworked into a series of radio contributions that was streamed in three parts from Kaaitheater.

VIDEO: By any beats necessary

This year, two young men have already lost their lives in a Brussels police station: Ibrahima Barrie and Ilyes Abbedou. When around 100 demonstrators took to the streets to protest against police impunity, 245 people were brutally arrested, many of them passers-by. And for the first time, a police union broke the culture of silence. On 28th February, Headquarters of the Mouvement, who have been in residency at Kaaistudio's since Summer 2020, invited several dancers and spoken word artists to give a voice to victims of police violence.
