What outrages us? How do we express our indignation? Based on the artwork Indignation by Cameroonian artist Justine Gaga, the students discuss these questions and the connection between art and protest. They also look at objects from colonial contexts and the continuity of colonial injustice right up to the present day. The pupils express their wishes for the future, criticise society and reflect on privileges. They express their own demands with self-designed posters, pamphlets and protest performances.

In the Humboldt Forum's foyer there is a 17 meter high media tower, called "cosmograph". It gives visitors comprehensive information about their visit and can transform into an art and light installation.
