Morgane Llanque
Journalist and Author
Morgane Llanque comes from a German-Latino American family. She studied history, politics, and cultural journalism and was a fellow of the Catholic School of Journalism, as well as a Transatlantic Media Fellow of the Heinrich Böll Foundation and a fellow of the IJP (International Journalists’ Programmes) in London. She works for the Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations (Institut für Auslandsbeziehungen) and writes for Die Zeit, taz, The New Statesman, and Good Impact magazine, where her column “Histourism” appears. Her first non-fiction book will be published in November 2025.
During her fellowship, Morgane Llanque will examine contemporary intersectional alliances in the U.S., including interethnic, queer-feminist and environmental initiatives relating to the values of the Rainbow Coalition founded by Fred Hampton in 1969. Her focus is on intersectional resistance that advocates for a more just society in the USA and unites rather than divides.
