Sterilisierung der Rheinlandbastarde. Das Schicksal einer far... by Reiner Pommerin

The German philosopher Anton Wilhelm Amo was an enslaved African himself. The German state Brandenburg was one of the most significant trading place for enslaved Black people in whole Europe but nowadays nobody knows about it. We make a little jump until the 18th century, where the enslavement and colonialism were going on.

But these are so far only my personal conclusions. If you ask me I personally believe the common picture of Christian saints with a golden halo around their heads standing on a mountain is the sun shining through the Black African hair and the white Celts and Germans saw the sun shining through our hair, because they had to look up and they had to look up because we sat on moving gray mountains – elephants, when people like Hannibal or earlier African queens,* and kings rode through the European mountains. Until now we know, that the earliest mentions of Black people in Germany were Saint Maurice and his Theban legion, which were Black Egyptians around 200 ad.

We’ve always been a part of this country, and sometimes even a significant one. For more detailed information about the history I also want to refer to the other great blogs on the “Arriving in the future” website, which greatly describe and summarize many chapters of Black history in Germany. I think it is important to understand the current situation and the current state (of mind) of Black people in Germany. In this blog I want to briefly summarize the history of the Black German movement from my perspective. Hello and welcome to my second blog post!
