A ritual of Black × Brown kinship amidst rising racism and Islamophobia — a gathering that refused erasure.

Vibrations of Blackness was the BlindianProject’s first ritual gathering in Berlin—part supper club, part sonic altar, part diasporic communion. In a city where Blackness is flattened and hypervisible, this night carved out a room where we witnessed one another without interruption.

Ugandan food became archive.
Cinema became ancestor.
Dance became refusal.
Steam rose like prayer.

Guests didn’t watch the work—they entered it. They ate inside it. They breathed through it. The table became choreography; the room, a temporary homeland stitched from scent, rhythm, and memory.

In the midst of rising racism and Islamophobia, this gathering became both shelter and signal: a space where joy acted as infrastructure and kinship became its own protection.

A communal altar disguised as a supper club.
A ritual that held us.
A gathering that refused to disappear.
