Je zei het enigszins zachtaardig: You said it somewhat gently

Short story written for the booklet Am I Evil? – Brussels Edition, part of a collective project with 17 authors, curated by Basani and Ciresola and printed by Nadine.

The booklet of 𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘌𝘷𝘪𝘭? first Brussels edition collects the 17 texts produced by the participating writers.

The texts are very different from each other, as very different the process of self-positioning in the field of power we have explored has been for each author. Every text is authored by a single person, yet still carries in itself, consciously or more or less evidently, deviations, notes, questions, holes, scars, and touches left by the encounter with the (writing) perspective of — at least — another participant. Creating space for decolonizing practices within the 𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘌𝘷𝘪𝘭? journey meant also, and maybe firstly, creating a collective space where the participants — all coming from very different ways of writing — could get to know each other and exchange, when possible, through the (writing) practice itself.
