“It is not that Europe has denied its colonial history – that would be too crude. It is instead that Europe has developed a way of telling the story of its colonial history that ultimately seeks to erase that history.” – Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Presenting a challenge to dominant institutional discourses of repair, When the Jackal leaves the Sun brings together artists, activists, curators, lawyers, and cultural practitioners to create interventions and pedagogical tools that currently come to life throughout 6 Chapters. Grounded in radical Black, queer and feminist positions, When The Jackal Leaves The Sun creates an independent and transterritorial infrastructure and platform for artistic and transdisciplinary collaborations on memory, cultural and educational work from summer 2022 to summer 2024 in Nairobi, Windhoek, Cape Town, Kigali, Dresden, Dar Es Salam, Dakar, Sinne Saloum, Jaol-Fadiouth, Berlin and online.

When the Jackal leaves the Sun connects an intersectional spectrum of artists, curators, activists, lawyers, cultural practitioners and collectives to develop an account of Pedagogies of Repossession. Through co-developing and facilitating a process toward Pedagogies of Repossession, When the Jackal leaves the Sun seeks to disrupt and counter persistent colonial violence through artistic and political means, fostering memory, cultural education, and spiritual healing.
