Another milestone in the history of
Afrogermans and Germany as a whole. One born of love, respect,
friendship, loyalty, self-conciousness, courage, perseverance and
staying true to a cause. In moments like this, I imagine what the
dynamics in the Afro-German community
would be, if respectable ones we've lost, like May Ayim and Vera Heyer
were still alive. It is comforting to know that their spirit still lives
on through friends, believers, sympathizers and commited individuals
and groups . Thank you Each One Teach One for taking on a respectable
cause.
On Friday the 21.03.2014 the doors of the first library of African literature by people of African heritage in Germany opened in Wedding, Berlin.
The private collection of books, newspapers, documentaries, all together about 2000, was made by Vera Heyer, an Afro-Grman, who died 19years ago. Vera Heyer was raised in an orphanage and developed a passion for books on black history and African heritage, because to her, books were provide a path to heritage especially for kinds who lack family ties. Read your history..know yourself.
