About the Speaker:

 

Büşra Cebeci was born in 1993. She studied Journalism at Selcuk University. After her internship at Bianet she started to work as a reporter at sendika.org and continued to work as a reporter at Medyascope between 2018 – 2020 and then she started to work at sozcu.tv. Mainly working on Political Islam and Muslim Community, she continue to work as an independent reporter.

 

September’s Theme is Dare.

 

To dare is an act of faith. We work up the nerve to make the soaring leap, even when we don’t know what the outcome will be. At the core of daring, you’ll find bravery and defiance entwined. We dare to challenge the stories passed down to us that no longer fit, the stories that limit our imagination. 

 

As we shed the stories that no longer serve us, but a way forward seems uncertain, how can we summon the courage to do impossible things? In The Field Guide to Getting Lost, Rebecca Solnit invites us, “Leave the door open for the unknown, the door into the dark. That’s where the most important things come from, where you yourself came from, and where you will go.” The door is open. Do you dare step through?

 

CreativeMornings/Porto Alegre chose September’s theme of Dare and Mitti Mendonça illustrated the theme.
