The New Black Movement and accompanying black organizations were established in both Germanies in the early 1980s. These organizations work to give black Germans a voice and to rediscover and tell the rich history of these people.
Where did they come from? They can be the children or grandchildren of Africans who emigrated from former German colonies in the early 20th century. Or exchange students and workers who came to the former East Germany from then-communist countries such as Mozambique. Others are the offspring of African-American soldiers in Germany during the post-World War II occupation and the Cold War. Or they can simply be immigrants from Africa and their descendants.
This series of films by and about Afro-Germans reflects issues from different perspectives and decades. All films are in German with English subtitles. Tickets $4/$7.
