„Culture Vultures“ – #23 -„CULTURE VULTURES“ TAKING THE KNEE – SYMBOL OR SHOW?“ [Talk – English version]

05. November 2025  – fbs (youtube)

Ready for the next round of ‘Culture Vultures’?

Today in our next “Culture Vultures” conversation, we, Florence and Bettina, will explore the power of gestures and rituals – such as taking the knee – and the significance and impact they carry.

  • I, Florence will share her perspective on where she draws the line between a sincere act of allyship and a symbolic gesture without real follow-through.
  • We ask: Do these gestures truly spark awareness, understanding and change – or do they sometimes remain just that, gestures, without the walk-the-talk behind them?

We’d love to hear your thoughts: Are such actions fleeting trends that fade as quickly as they appear? Or should they serve as ongoing reminders – helping us keep important issues in sight and conversation alive?
