Fremder im Dorf / Schwarzer Körper

Book • 2023
James Baldwin's essay 'Ein Fremder im Dorf' (Stranger in the Village), written in 1953, recounts his experiences as the first black man in the predominantly white Swiss village of Leukerbad.

He writes about the racism and cultural isolation he faced.

More than sixty years later, Teju Cole visits the same village and reflects on how things have changed yet how racism persists.

Cole's piece, 'Schwarzer Körper,' engages in a dialogue with Baldwin's work, highlighting the ongoing issues of racial identity and social politics.
