BLACK GERMAN HOLOCAUST VICTIMS

This is a bit of history that few of us are aware of, I hope it enlightens.

So much of our history is lost to us because we often don't write the history

books, don't film the documentaries, or don't pass the accounts down from

generation to generation.

One documentary now touring the film festival circuit, telling us to "Always

Remember" is "Black Survivors of the Holocaust" (1997). Outside the U.S.., the

film is entitled "Hitler's Forgotten Victims" (Afro-Wisdom Productions). It

codifies another dimension to the "Never Forget" Holocaust story--our

dimension.

Did you know that in the 1920's, there were 24,000 Blacks living in

Germany, and how many of them were eventually caught unaware by the

events of the Holocaust? Like most West European nations, Germany

established colonies in Africa in the late 1800's in what later became Togo,

Cameroon, Namibia, and Tanzania. German genetic experiments began there,

most notably involving prisoners taken from the 1904 Heroro Massacre that

left 60,000 Africans dead, following a 4-year revolt against German

colonization. After the shellacking Germany received in World War I, it was

stripped of its African colonies in 1918.

As a spoil of war, the French were allowed to occupy Germany in the

Rhineland--a bitter piece of real estate that has gone back and forth between

the two nations for centuries. The French willfully deployed their owncolonized African soldiers as the occupying force. Germans viewed this as the


62/64

62

final insult of World War I, and soon thereafter, 92% of them voted in the Nazi

party.

Hundreds of the African Rhineland-based soldiers intermarried with German

women and raised their children as Black Germans. In Mein Kampf, Hitler wrote

about his plans for these "Rhineland Bastards".

When he came to power, one of his first directives was aimed at these mixed-

race children. Underscoring Hitler's obsession with racial purity, by 1937, every

identified mixed-race child in the Rhineland had been forcibly sterilized, in

order to prevent further "race polluting", as Hitler termed it. Hans Hauck, a

Black Holocaust survivor and a victim of Hitler's mandatory sterilizationprogram, explained in the film "Hitler's Forgotten Victims" that, when he was

forced to undergo sterilization as a teenager, he was given no anesthetic.

Once he received his sterilization certificate, he was "free to go", as long as he

agreed to have no sexual relations whatsoever with Germans.

Although most Black Germans attempted to escape their fatherland, heading

for France where people like Josephine Baker were steadily aiding and

supporting the French Underground, many still encountered problems

elsewhere.

Nations shut their doors to Germans, including the Black ones. Some Black

Germans were able to eke out a living during Hitler's reign of terror by

performing in Vaudeville shows, but many Blacks, steadfast in their belief thatthey were German first, Black second, opted to remain in Germany.

Some fought with the Nazis (a few even became Luft waffe pilots)!

Unfortunately, many Black Germans were arrested, charged with treason, and

shipped in cattle cars to concentration camps.

Often these trains were so packed with people and (equipped with no

bathroom facilities or food), that, after the four-day journey, box car doors

were opened to piles of the dead and dying. Once inside the concentration


63/64

63

camps, Blacks were given the worst jobs conceivable. Some Black American

soldiers, who were captured and held as prisoners of war, recounted that,

while they were being starved and forced into dangerous labor (violating the

Geneva Convention), they were still better off than Black German

concentration camp detainees, who were forced to do the unthinkable--man

the crematoriums and work in labs where genetic experiments were being

conducted.

As a final sacrifice, these Blacks were killed every three months so that they

would never be able to reveal the inner workings of the "Final Solution". In

every story of Black oppression, no matter how we were enslaved, shackled or

beaten, we always found a way to survive and to rescue others.

As a case in point, consider Johnny Voste, a Belgian resistance fighter who was

arrested in 1942 for alleged sabotage and then shipped to Dachau. One of his

jobs was stacking vitamin crates. Risking his own life, Voste distributed

hundreds of vitamins to camp detainees, which saved the lives of many who

were starving, weak and ill--conditions exacerbated by extreme vitamin

deficiencies. His motto was "No, you can't have my life; I will fight for it."

According to Essex University's Delroy Constantine-Simms, there were Black

Germans who resisted Nazi Germany, such as Lari Gilges, who founded the

Northwest Rann--an organization of entertainers that fought the Nazis in his

home town of Dusseldorf--and who was murdered by the SS in 1933, the year

that Hitler came into power. Little information remains about the numbers of

Black Germans held in the camps or killed under the Nazi regime.

Some victims of the Nazi sterilization project and Black survivors of the

Holocaust are still alive and telling their story in films such as "Black Survivors

of the Nazi Holocaust", but they must also speak out for justice, not just

history.

Unlike Jews (in Israel and in Germany), Black Germans receive no war

reparations because their German citizenship was revoked (even though they

were German-born). The only pension they get is from those of us who are


64/64

willing to tell the world their stories and continue their battle for recognition

and compensation.

After the war, scores of Blacks who had somehow managed to survive the Nazi

regime, were rounded up and tried as war criminals. Talk about the final insult!

There are thousands of Black Holocaust stories, from the triangle trade, to

slavery in America, to the gas ovens in Germany.

We often shy away from hearing about our historical past because so much of

it is painful; however, we are in this struggle together for rights, dignity, and,

yes, reparations for wrongs done to us through the centuries. We need to

always remember so that we can take steps to ensure that these atrocitiesnever happen again.

For further information, read: Destined to Witness: Growing Up Black in Nazi

Germany, by Hans J. Massaquoi.

PLEASE PASS THIS ON, AND ALWAYS REMEMBER...LEST WE FORGET!
