german colonial history is downplayed in our society, although in 1914 the german colonies were the third largest colonial empire in terms of area. the genocide by king leopold ii in the congo and the genocide in namibia both took place after the congo conference. the genocide of the ovaherero and nama began 120 years ago. despite their resistance, up to 60,000 ovaherero and 10,000 nama were murdered by the german colonial empire. the consequences of colonization are still felt today, because colonialism was never over and neither is the fight against it. the politics of remembrance should create justice and remember those who fell victim to conquest and not the perpetrators. we do not need statues of perpetrators and colonialists. we fight alongside all oppressed peoples of this earth and declare war on the prevailing colonialism. anti-colonial struggle must become practical!
