Tupoka Ogette was born in Leipzig in 1980, the daughter of a Tanzanian student of agriculture and a German student of mathematics. Shortly before the fall of the Berlin Wall, her mother emigrated with her to West Berlin, where Ogette lived until she graduated from high school. She holds a master's degree in African Studies and German as a Foreign Language from the University of Leipzig and a master's degree in International Business from the Graduate School of Grenoble. Since 2012, Tupoka Ogette has worked nationwide as a consultant and trainer in the field of racism critique.

Learning to Think Critically of Racism" is a SPIEGEL bestseller. In 2019, Ogette was named one of the 25 most influential women of the year by Edition F magazine.
