Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPoCs) wear a t-shirt bearing the german word SCHWARZFAHRER*IN while they distribute
post cards inviting passers-by to suggest new, non-racist words for SCHWARZFAHRER*IN.
Accordingly "branded" by wearing the t-shirt, BIPoCs exemplify the clichés assigned to them as prejudices, reflecting on the role of language in discriminatory processes.
We are looking for a new, non-racist word for the German term "SCHWARZFAHRER*IN" (literally "black rider") for fare dodger.
We would look forward to your suggestions at:
