How Germany’s colonial genocide shapes Namibia today 👇🏼

Since everyone here seems to want to lean more about this topic, here are a couple of more links from DW’s coverage of Germany’s colonial genocide in Namibia. First up, a talk show episode of our DW Africa format, The 77 Percent:

Here is an interview with a descendent of genocide survivors speaking out against the German government and how it has dealt with that chapter of history:

An explainer looking at why so little is known in Germany about this important chapter in history:

@abierkhatib Germans should give Namibians back their land, this is quite unacceptable. Israel’s genocide has opened a pandora box of so many horror stories around the world.

The audacity of that restaurant owner is triggering

many are not welling to accept facts because they don’t want to loose what they took by force.

I love how this also shows Germans refusal to accept what happened

70% of land is still white owned in Namibia? Are these German descendants?

What is he still doing there. Namibians should kick him out, he still disrespects them. He can't even acknowledge that his ancestors did something wrong.

A horrific and very painful history💔 The audacity of the likes of Nobert to ignore the horrors they have inflicted on others!
