Esin Turan summarised what prejudices youths must deal with in in a photo project against racism and discrimination. The listed prejudices appear to all contain an absurd everyday racism within them. »I’m Chinese, but I don’t eat dogs!« is written on the paper in front of a young woman. Some of the prejudices are so absurd, that one even begins to grin. We at renk. have always tried to disarm prejudices in a positive and creative way, and are happy that this photo project also has the same message. Right on!
