Late-Night-Real-Talk #4 mit Burak Yılmaz & Lena Marbacher

In the organizer's words:

The new talk show by podcaster and author Burak Yılmaz is entering its fourth round. Together with author and journalist Lena Marbacher, the focus in March will be on power, abuse and courage. How is power currently exercised in economic and political contexts? Why is there a system of abuse of power and how can we defend ourselves against it?

Lena Marbacher is a freelance journalist, author and entrepreneur. Her book "ARBEIT MACHT MISSBRAUCH" was published by S. Fischer in October 2024. Before that, she co-authored the Spiegel bestseller "Unlearn Patriarchy" with an article about work. Lena is now a retired co-founder of the business magazine "Neue Narrative" and its publishing house. Before that, she was a partner in a self-organized management consultancy. She speaks as an expert on the future of work to representatives of politics and business and at conferences. She completed her doctorate at the Bauhaus University Weimar.

Burak Yılmaz is an author and podcaster. He grew up in Duisburg, post-migrant. His educational path - elite Catholic grammar school, Koran school, university - crosses milieus. In response to anti-Semitism in his youth center, he organizes trips to Auschwitz with Muslim teenagers. He wrote about his experiences in his book "Ehrensache. Fighting against Jew-hatred".

Burak and Lena's talk will be complemented by a musical act by the Schwuhplattler.

Queer by tradition: for over 25 years, D'Schwuhplattler have been the first association in the world to combine homosexuality and the traditional Burschenplattler. They are not only ambassadors for tolerance and acceptance, but also promote a lively exchange between tradition and queer life. Over the years, what started out as a small group of enthusiastic Munich Plattlers has become an association known far beyond the borders of Bavaria. D'Schwuhplattler no longer only perform at queer events, such as Christopher Street Days in Germany and abroad, but also at district festivals, charity events and cultural events. After participating in the project "The school of narrative dance" at Villa Stuck, among others, D'Schwuhplattler made their debut at the Gärtnerplatztheater in "Der Vogelhändler". D'Schwuhplattler have already appeared at the Münchner Kammerspiele in "New Beginnings" and "What is the city but the people".
