#CharlieKirk #SouthAfrica "How could debates over whether hypothetical 10-year-olds should be able to access abortion services ever seem like satisfying intellectual point-scoring in a country where we don’t have to invent these 10-year-olds for discursive purposes; they already exist." (2/2)

2025: Germany still hasn't fully acknowledged the genocide on Shark Island. Tourists camp where bones lie buried — and now a green hydrogen project risks wiping out the site completely.
Ovaherero Traditional Authority (OTA) & Nama Traditional Leaders Association (NTLA) demand to stop leisure activites or industrial robbery  of their ancestral land and protect the santity of Shark Island at any cost; https://forensic-architecture.org/investigation/shark-island

1905: The German colonial power built the concentration camp where thousands of Nama and Ovaherero were murdered as part of an extermination war—now considered the first genocide of the 20th century.

In Germany, many people associate Sunday evenings with a popular detective series: Tatort [eng: crime scene]

This Sunday, August 31 at 8PM @medico2.bsky.social turns the spotlight on a real and unresolved crime scene far from Germany’s cities: Shark Island in Namibia @forensicarchi.bsky.social

"We live in a moment where atrocity is not hidden but hyper-visible […] This is how genocide denial functions now. It rarely arrives as a blunt denial of death […] It does not claim that Palestinians aren’t dying. It simply asks, “how do we know they’re dying like this?” A crucial read—William Shoki

On our annual publishing break, Gaza’s genocide continues to unfold in real time yet slips from public grasp. This is not just a crisis of politics, but of how reality is mediated—and why we must build spaces where meaning can still take root. africasacountry.com/2025/08/on-s...

Rückwärtsgewandter geht es kaum: Mit dem (falschen) Argument, es habe damals kein internationales Recht gegeben, verweigert Deutschland Verantwortung für den Völkermord an Nama & Ovaherero.

Wohin man schaut: Keine Lehren aus der Geschichte. Deutschland 2025. Wir waren schon mal weiter.
