مشترى هلال (Moshtari Hilal)
Hierarchies of Solidarity
How does solidarity emerge? When are political alliances formed beyond differences, and why do certain struggles seem to receive more solidarity than others? What makes up solidarity work and what contradictions, interests and strategies shape it?
In their new volume Hierarchies of Solidarity, சிந்துஜன் வரதராஜா (Sinthujan Varatharajah) and مشترى هلال (Moshtari Hilal) jointly reflect on a practice that, as an act against oppression, expresses itself in both seemingly small everyday gestures and global political contexts. The result is a revealing conversation that, underpinned by lived experience, traces the racist structures of the discourse landscape and offers alternative ways of understanding solidarity.
مشترى هلال (Moshtari Hilal) is an artist and writer living in Hamburg. சிந்துஜன் வரதராஜா (Sinthujan Varatharajah) is a freelance researcher and essayist living in Berlin. Hierarchies of Solidarity is the second title by Hilal and Varatharajah published by Wirklichkeit Books. Their first book English in Berlin: Exclusions in a Cosmopolitan Society came out in fall 2022.
