A historical #novel that puts a face to the 1904 Herero #genocide, the training ground for the #Holocaust.

Great Amazon review about #MamaNamibia: "Similar to Achebe's "Things Fall Apart." ... Achebe is a tough act to follow, but I think this book deserves a place on the shelf next to him. I believe Achebe would agree and be proud.

#Colonialism is alive and well in academia. Kudos, @juergenzimmerer, for taking a stand.

I resigned today from the German "African Studies Association" #VAD . They hold a workshop for their 50th anniversary reflecting on their history-without a single African speaker. I find this unacceptable&asked them to reconsider. They didn't see the need for this. So I am out.

Compelling speech by @DrBizimana on how intellectuals and political class conceived and organised the genocide against Tutsi.
To prevent future genocide, education must include values, critical thinking and empathy.

I'm always humbled by great reviews of "Mama Namibia." The latest one, from @HideawayReport, calls the novel "an important, beautiful book about a brutal and tragic moment in history that few people know anything about." https://t.co/q8XwD9V11b

German official says recognizing the 1904 Herero/Nama #genocide a political/moral issue, not a legal one. That means #Germany may never do what's right. https://t.co/VSPOtj4CVV
