Carnival Al-Lajiin / My Right is your Right! – Das antirassistische Bündnis "Refugee Club Impulse (RCI)" sowie "My Right is your Right!" laden anlässlich des Globalen Tages gegen Rassismus am 20. März 2016 zur Demonstration "Carnival Al-Lajiìn" (Karneval der Geflüchteten) durch Berlin-Tempelhof und Kreuzberg ein. Das selbstorganisierte Bündnis stellt sich gegen die Isolierung und Diskriminierung von Geflüchteten.
An dem Bündnis "My Right is your Right!" sind u.a. die Arbeiterwohlfahrt, das Bündnis gegen Rassismus, der Flüchtlingsrat Berlin und die Lesbenberatung sowie Kulturinstitutionen wie das Grips-Theater, das Maxim-Gorki-Theater, die Schaubühne und das Deutsche Theater beteiligt.
Forderungen/Statements des Bündnisses: "Nein zur Asylrechtsverschärfung! Nein zur Isolierung und Spaltung von Menschen! Gegen alle Mauern und Zäune! Nein zum neuen Asylgesetz! Gegen Rassismus und Hass! Für das Recht zu bleiben! Stoppt alle Abschiebungen! Alle Menschen haben das Recht zu bleiben, wo sie wollen, und zu entscheiden, wie sie leben wollen! Wir brauchen Solidarität, nicht Wohltätigkeit! Wir wollen alle Rechte für alle! Wir machen den "Carnival Al-Lajíin_Al-Lajiáat", weil wir uns gegen eine Abschottung Europas stellen, weil wir den Umgang mit Geflüchteten in Deutschland verurteilen und weil wir die Lager in Berlin verhindern wollen. Es geht um Menschen mitten unter uns und um ihre Menschenwürde, um die Menschenwürde von uns allen. #20M #MRIYR"

Jihye Han, Artist Statement
Throughout cultural experiences in various countries, I have always questioned my subjectivity and felt a sense of separation. The feeling of separation isolates space and imply distance physically, but separation can have different meanings such as physical connection. I explore tangible and intangible relationships within liminality spaces using elements both physical and emotional. I ask myself about my subjectivity “What determines and who controls the line between internal and external or proper and improper? Where do I belong with intersectional identities? Liminality of spaces are created as a way to blur the lines from stereotypes that lies underneath the surface. I envision these obstacles; addressing of my subjectivity, cultural heritage and immigrant’s life, as invisible boundaries that represent my identity, my history and my culture in the boundaries of interior and exterior space while aiming to balance tradition and modernity.
My work seeks to create abstract narratives based on identity, childhood memory, heritage and visual language. In addition, it can be reconciliation between tradition and contemporary art in which reflects on technology and the act of thinking about environmental, cultural and political issues. My works intentions are to transfer my identity and personal experiences into tangible shapes of the body as well as develop immersive environments utilizing clay and mixed media. The sculptural aspects respond to what I see as invisible boundaries developed from a social dialogue. My works hope to illustrate physical properties of time-based and interactive media. I am interested in the ability to allow the audience to see things that they had taken for granted.

The IAEA Event: Net Zero Needs Nuclear Power will highlight the crucial role of nuclear power as part of the energy mix. The Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Mr Rafael Mariano Grossi will announce the ‘IAEA Statement on Nuclear Power’ supported by 40 countries, both those already operating nuclear power plants and newcomers. Together these countries acknowledge that all available low-carbon technologies, including nuclear power, should be recognized, and actively supported. The Statement underlines the benefits of nuclear power, including that nuclear power plants produce no harmful greenhouse gas emissions; that nuclear energy contributes to energy security and the stability of power grids; and that it mitigates air pollution at a local level.

Ein deutliches Statement gegen die Verfolgung von Homosexuellen in Russland ist zum weltweit besten Pressefoto des Jahres gewählt worden. Die Jury des Wettbewerbs World Press Photo zeichnete den dänischen Fotografen Mads Nissen mit dem renommierten Preis aus. Er fotografierte das schwule Paar Jon und Alex in einem intimen Moment in Sankt Petersburg. Das Foto ist Teil eines größeren Projekts des Fotografen zum Thema "Homophobie in Russland".
Das Foto nehme auf eindrückliche Weise Stellung zu einem universalen Thema, begründete die Jury ihre Wahl. Für Homosexuelle, Lesben, Bisexuelle und Transgender werde das Leben in Russland zunehmend schwieriger. "Sexuelle Minderheiten werden mit rechtlicher und sozialer Diskriminierung konfrontiert, Verfolgung und sogar gewalttätigen Hass-Verbrechen von konservativen religiösen und nationalistischen Gruppen", heißt es in dem Bericht der Jury.
"Dieses Foto hat eine große ästhetische Kraft und zeigt Menschlichkeit", sagte die Vorsitzende der Jury Michele McNally, Direktorin für Fotografie der New York Times. „Gewalttätige Bilder werden heute von Terroristen für Propagandazwecke produziert. Unsere Antwort darauf muss subtiler ausfallen“ sagt das Jurymitglied Alessia Glaviano.
Die Jury wählte aus rund 98.000 Fotos aus 131 Ländern die Sieger aus. Preise wurden in acht Kategorien an 42 Fotografen vergeben. Die Siegerfotos werden in einer Ausstellung ab April in Amsterdam und anschließend in über 40 Ländern gezeigt. Vom 5. bis zum 28. Juni werden sie im Willy-Brandt-Haus in Berlin ausgestellt.

GRAND OPENING World Press Photo, Willy-Brandt-Haus, Berlin 2015
The Freundeskreis Willy-Brandt-Haus e.V., Gruner+Jahr and the magazines Stern and Geo present the photo exhibition.
A clear statement against the persecution of homosexuals in Russia has been voted the world's best press photo of the year. The jury of the World Press Photo competition awarded the prestigious prize to Danish photographer Mads Nissen. He photographed the gay couple Jon and Alex in an intimate moment in Saint Petersburg. The photo is part of a larger project by the photographer on the subject of “Homophobia in Russia”.
The jury justified its choice by stating that the photo impressively addresses a universal topic. Life in Russia is becoming increasingly difficult for homosexuals, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender people. “Sexual minorities face legal and social discrimination, persecution and even violent hate crimes from conservative religious and nationalist groups,” the jury's report states.
“This photograph has great aesthetic power and shows humanity,” said jury chair Michele McNally, director of photography at The New York Times. “Violent images today are produced by terrorists for propaganda purposes. Our response to this must be more subtle,” said jury member Alessia Glaviano.
The jury selected the winners from around 98,000 photos from 131 countries. Prizes were awarded to 42 photographers in eight categories. The winning photos will be shown in an exhibition in Amsterdam from April and then in over 40 countries. They will be exhibited at the Willy Brandt House in Berlin from June 5 to 28.

This is the pioneer home of Phil Peterson Sr. (built in the late 1800s), later owned by Phil Peterson Jr. This later became the home of John L. Lloyd and his wife, Grace (Shier) Lloyd. The property had 1,700 acres, although John Lloyd sold all the land except the house and one acre to Henry Lloyd (no relation). Henry Lloyd owned the barn in the background on the right.
