Kroegcollege: On Fascism

Every two or three months, Studio/K pays homage to the ‘Kroeg’ (café) as a place where different kinds of people come together and speak freely about daily life or have political discussions. People often feel overwhelmed by all the information in the media about current political and social issues, and struggle with how to interpret the debate or how to take action. For those a new series of programs, called /Kroegcollege. The evening will focus on a social phenomenon, with experts sharing their insights. And afterwards, you can discuss and socialize while enjoying a drink!
