Dominance & Racism: Guardians Of The Post-Racist Galaxy - Ikenna Azuike

Описание: For the second installment of the #StudiumGeneraleGent series, we invited Ikenna Azuike to an in-depth conversation about his recent documentary entitled "The Post-Racist Planet" (available here:    • The Post-Racist Planet | VPRO Documentary  . Ikenna takes us on a creatively rich layered journey towards an intimate understanding of racism and anti-racism. What would the world be like without racism? How do we create such a world? Pioneers working on creating a post-racist world show us the way forward.

kenna Azuike is a Nigeria-Brit living in the Netherlands. He worked as a lawyer in major British and American law firms, but determined that it was not his passion. In 2008 he made a daring career switch: he started an organization to promote awareness and sustainability, Strawberry Earth, and started at the very bottom of the ladder in journalism. In 2011, he started a satirical Youtube Vlog "What's Up Africa" out of frustration at the unbalanced and often incorrect portrayal of Africa in the Western media. In addition, Ikenna makes programs for Dutch television, and he aspires to make a pan-African showcasing the many talented comedians of the African continent.
