Graffiti Workshop with Berlin Massive by #FemGeniusesinBerlin

This podcast—led and produced by Mekael Daniel, joined in discussion by Nizhooni Hurd and Maysie Poland—examines our graffiti workshop at Mauer Park along the Berlin Wall with Berlin Massive. Founded in 2004, Berlin Massive is an association of hip hop graffiti writers, beatboxers, rappers, B-Boys, B-Girls, designers, songwriters, and DJs that develops cultural and educational projects, organizes jams and battles, gives workshops and seminars, and other activities primarily at schools and in youth centers.

Mekael is a 21-year-old rising senior from Denver, CO majoring in Feminist & Gender Studies and minoring in Chinese Language at Colorado College. She is the youngest of five children and is an avid artist who enjoys many mediums from painting to dancing. She likes to think about things, such as her subjectivity as a Black woman, and to channel her thoughts into art. In her free time, she likes to meditate (i.e., do nothing), read, and sleep.
