Nazi heritage

Today I'll start this post in a rather different way by recommending a book: last week I've just read Nora Krug's Heimat which is a genious piece of art combining different creative styles producing an incredible visual result that ropes perfectly the personal search for her family's history.

This search is also a personal search for what it means Heimat, a german word which can hardly be translated as a mix of both Hometown and Belonging.

Krug looks incessantly for the role of her family during the Nacional Socialist times, drawing her own very personal conclusions on it, always looking for how it reflects in nowadays german society.

One week after the whole Thuringia scandal took place and the german political scene is still shaken by CDU's leader Karrenbauer's resign, the coming back of the right-wing scene is back on the spotlight in Germany.

Beatutiful life without nazi shops

Innumerous articles and talk-shows have been held all over the country, as well as public demonstrations against it, like it happened inThuringia's capital Erfurt or  in Dresden during the celebrations of the 75th anniversary of Dresden's bombing.

In the streets there is a constant appeal to fight the nazis as I've presented in some former posts.

In Barmbek's neighbourhood here in Hamburg there was an attempt of opening a shop with nazi clothing, but public protests have made its owners quit the idea, even though police protection was granted to them

Smash nazis

No fun bath to nazis, referring to Gauland's swim in a lake in 2018 when he saw his clothes robbed by someone who has shouted "Kein badespass für Nazis"
