Lecture Series Against Right-Wing Extremism: (R)ight to Female Bodies—On the Visual Politics of Right-Wing Female Influencers

November 16, 2026: "Right-Wing Female Bodies" – On the Visual Politics of Right-Wing Female Influencers

The Kassel Lecture Series Against Right-Wing Extremism will take place again during the 2026–27 winter semester. In memory of the racist murder of Halit Yozgat, which was committed by the far-right NSU in 2006 not far from the Holländischer Platz campus, annual courses on varying topics have been held since 2012, aimed equally at students and the broader community. An interdisciplinary team from the departments of Human Sciences, Humanities and Cultural Studies, and Social Sciences organizes the lecture series in collaboration with scholars and practitioners. In the 2026–27 winter semester, the individual lectures will be held under the theme “Young, Dynamic, Far-Right? New and Old Far-Right Youth Cultures.”
