"For the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house. They may allow us temporarily to beat him at his own game, but they will never enable us to bring about genuine change. And this fact is only threatening to those women who still define the master’s house as their only source of support.” - Audre Lorde
Orangen und Datteln (Oranges and Dades) by Karl May
Illutration by Schneider;
Christ and Muhammad juxtaposed in opposition
Caption: The Modern Arab and his Steed; NYC 1910s

INTERVIEW-TIPS
It is NOT A SCRIPTED Q&A BUT AN INTENSE (professional) CONVERSATION.
Take a minute beforehand to have a casual chat.
Don't launch straight into the sensible topics.
Keep the conversation discoursive, subjective & personal.
Show enthusiasm to shake the feeling of possible hostile situation and the need to be on one's guard.
Talk only 10-20%
Pick up words and phrases to refer back to for more intimate and honest information/opinion/story.
Steer the conversation to get what you came for but there is no need to be bossy.
Remind at the end which topics have been talked about to create an opportunity to add something.
Offer the other a chance for questions.
Lay out the plan with this conversation or project in general.
