Silence in migration. Q&A with Sulaiman Addonia | Kulturwochen Eritrea 2025

When it comes to migration, certain topics are discussed at length, while others are largely ignored. We often hear about upper limits, demarcation and integration. But when it comes to cultures in the diaspora, queer people fleeing their homes, love and sexuality in the context of migration, and many other personal stories, reasons for fleeing and everyday exclusion, Europe falls silent. Sulaiman Addonia has written about precisely these issues in his books ‘Silence is my mother tongue’, ‘The consequences of love’ and ‘The Seers’.

In a cosy evening gathering, we will talk to Sulaiman Addonia online about his books and the silence surrounding certain topics related to migration. Bring your questions and join the conversation with him.

This event is part of the series „Es geht auch anders! Visionen für eine Migrationspolitik der Zukunft“ of the Heinrich-Böll Foundation network in Germany. The Kulturwochen Eritrea 2025 are the organisers.
