Grateful to have presented our film PRISM made by Rosine Mbakam, Eléonore Yameogo and I at de Brakke Grond in Amsterdam, with @mu.zee. Thanks to the wonderful curators for finding the perfect context to present the film: during Keti Koti, to celebrate the abolished regime of slavery in Indonesia!

A ship carrying humanitarian aid bound for Gaza was bombed just off the coast of Malta on Friday, with activists saying that Israel bears responsibility for the attack on the vessel aiming to break Israel’s two month-long total aid blockade on the Gaza Strip.

The Gaza Government Media Office says famine is spreading in the besieged enclave, with “more than a million children at risk, amid a stifling blockade and shameful international silence."

One of the happiest updates I’ve written since I started following this story. 12 students back in status and maybe more to come. Across the country, students are saying their SEVIS is back.

Proud that my film "Cherry Blossoms," is part of the expo "What cannot be held" at Brakke Grond in Amsterdam, curated by Suzanne Wallinga. The title, What Cannot Be Held, was inspired by the words of the interpreter in Cherry Blossoms: the impossibility of capturing, translating or understanding.

This letter is a critique of the documentary 'Not in my country' made by PT Jones, published on 20/03/25 by a group of artists and academics, incl. myself. A day after its publication, DOCVILLE decided to cancel the screening of the film rightfully. Read our arguments here: notinmycountry.eu

Rindon Johnson is a visual artist and poet. Johnson’s work concerns the effects of capitalism, climate. For his exhibition at Cc Strombeek, Johnson examines the colonial history of the wood type mahogany in the 18th century and reflects on its ecological consequences. Very recommended exhibition!

My husband Emile van Binnebeke talks on 28 February at the expo of the artist Rindon Johnson at Cc Strombeek. In the 18th century, colonial Americans became enamored with mahogany, which became the height of fashion yet hiding a story of violent exploitation.
