FLINTA* CITY

We are the open working group “FLINTA* CITY” of the Tenants’ Union Berlin. At the core of our mission is the question: What would a patriarchy-free city look like, and how do we get there?

WHAT DOES INTERSECTIONALITY MEAN?

Intersectionality = (from the English “intersection”) refers to the interweaving of various forms of discrimination. A person can be discriminated against for various reasons: gender identity, sexuality, origin, language, immigration status, appearance, age, social background and status, body, abilities, disabilities, and more. Where multiple forms of discrimination intersect, new, unique mechanisms of discrimination emerge. Intersectionality involves an approach that exposes the complex multidimensionality of power and oppression relationships.

WHAT WE FIGHT FOR

We aim to create supportive and caring networks against the pervasive isolation, exploitation, and displacement. We want to strengthen ourselves and our relationships as FLINTA* individuals to become a force that challenges the old city’s structures. To achieve this, we work intersectionally*, as we view all our struggles as one common fight for a world free from domination. We are an open meeting, welcoming both MGB members and new FLINTA* individuals. For more information, feel free to contact us.
