Exposing and Abolishing Police Brutality
Radical Black traditions, shaped by resistance to colonialism and slavery, offer a powerful critique of modern punitive institutions. With a focus on Europe and Switzerland, this forum explores two central strands of these struggles for Black lives: on the one hand, independent forms of organising that expose police brutality and deaths at the hands of law enforcement; on the other, the ideas and practices that make it possible to imagine a world without police.

Belleville Beats
In the north of Paris, La Perm’ welcomes the teenagers of Belleville as a second home. This community space has become both a refuge and a place of creation for Matthieu, Solo, Kany and their group. Through debates, shared dreams and collective projects, they build a space for resistance in the face of the transformation of their neighbourhood, while preparing Belleville en Vrai, a festival where everything they have sown can finally come to fruition.
