| 100 years after the battle at Waterberg
and the extermination of the Herero by the German Schutztruppe
under the command of General von Trotha, the remembrance
of a gruesome colonial war is omnipresent. Herero and
Germans discuss the question of guilt and apology and
how a common life can develop in light of the legacy of
the war. Peter Dreckmann tells us about the events
in the German colony during the years 1904/05 and their
effect on the peaceful co-existence and reconciliation
in the future. |
