SFB 1288 doctoral researcher Malika Mansouri (subproject B06) opened up the lecture series "Linie 4" ('Line 4') of the Bielefeld Graduate School in History and Sociology (BGHS) at Volkshochschule Bielefeld, an educational institution. The name represents the bridge between Bielefeld University and the city of Bielefeld via the 'line 4' of the Bielefelder tram. The focal point of the public lecture series is the dialogue between researchers and a wider public.

A short interview with Malika Mansouri and a photo can be found via the BGHS's website.

We have uploaded a few new videos to the SFB's YouTube channel. You can find some lectures from the international conference "Contact – Conquest – Colonization" (11-13 October, 2018) or the latest addition, a panel discussion on the alleged 'two cultures' of Science and the Humanities (in German) which was recorded during the SFB's annual conference "Vergleichen – interdisziplinäreär" ('Comparing – interdisciplinary').

Also during the annual conference, Klaus Reinhold (Evolutionary Biology, Bielefeld University), Angelika Epple, and Walter Erhart have been interviewed for the Deutschlandfunk (Dlf) on the conference's topic. The radio report was part of the programme "Aus Kultur- und Sozialwissenschaften" ('Cultural and Social Sciences') on 28 March and can be heard here via the Dlf's website (in German).
