Witnessed is a book series written in English by Black authors, who live or have lived in Germany, and is edited by Sharon Dodua Otoo

Witnessed will issue two publications annually. The first of the series will be published in Autumn 2012. It is called “Imagine if Black Artists Actually Mattered? Visions of Euality in Germany.”
The authors – who are free to choose how to share their stories – will participate in readings and cultural events. For selected works, educational materials will be developed to support the introduction of the literature in schools and universities.
The authors will be representative of Black English-speaking peoples regarding gender, sexual orientation, political views, class, religion, nationality, illegalisation status and ability status.
