Their army, made up of women, has a single weapon: dance.<\/p>\n\n<p>Based on the tradition of Bikutsi, a traditional Cameroonian music and dance practiced by Beti women to relieve pain, Blick Bassy has created a powerful, multidisciplinary show &#8211; a feminist manifesto in which women are the agents of social emancipation. In this musical fairy tale between fiction and historical reality, dance becomes an act of resistance.<\/p>\n\n<p>Now, for the first time in Europe, the pan-African version with dancers from Cameroon can be experienced, which emphasizes the choreographic peculiarities and the cultural Cameroonian approaches.  <\/p>\n\n<p><em>Bikutsi 3000 <\/em>has already toured in Cameroon and also addresses the young African population with the aim of triggering a reflection on roots, identity and postcolonial emancipation. Equally, the project promotes international choreographic collaboration.<\/p>\n\n<p><b>Tickets<\/b> exclusively via Qultor:  <\/p>\n\n<p>02.06.23, 21:00 Uhr: <a href=\"https:\/\/tickets.qultor.de\/event\/bikutsi-3000\/bikutsi-3000-2023-06-02-2100\/tickets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https: <\/a>\/\/tickets.qultor.de\/event\/bikutsi-3000\/bikutsi-3000-2023-06-02-2100\/tickets  <\/p>\n\n<p>03.06.2023, 19:00 Uhr: <a href=\"https:\/\/tickets.qultor.de\/event\/bikutsi-3000\/bikutsi-3000-2023-06-03-1900\/tickets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/tickets.qultor.de\/event\/bikutsi-3000\/bikutsi-3000-2023-06-03-1900\/tickets<\/a> <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" style=\"font-style:normal;font-weight:700;text-transform:uppercase\">Organizer<\/h2>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.africologne-festival.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">africologneFESTIVAL \/ afroTopia e.V.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Blick Bassy&#8217;s Afrofuturistic narrative, the Queen of Nkolmesseng in present-day Cameroon leads a resistance through the centuries to bring the continent&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8161,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","mec_category":[318,319],"programmbereich":[],"mec_tag":[394],"class_list":["post-8183","mec-events","type-mec-events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mec_category-art-en","mec_category-culture-en","mec_tag-africologne-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec-events\/8183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec-events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/mec-events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8183"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec-events\/8183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8185,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec-events\/8183\/revisions\/8185"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8183"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"mec_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec_category?post=8183"},{"taxonomy":"programmbereich","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/programmbereich?post=8183"},{"taxonomy":"mec_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/african-futures.koeln\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/mec_tag?post=8183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
