3 months agoCongratulations to @hendrik.bolz and @donpablomulemba for their powerful podcast "Springerstiefel," which dives deep into the right-wing violence that shaped East Germany in the 1990s and the lasting impacts of that time.
Through their gripping storytelling, this podcast series takes us back to a time when youth in Springerstiefeln (combat boots) dominated the streets, and anyone who didn’t fit into their extremist worldview became a target for violence.
What makes "Springerstiefel" so compelling today is not just its reflection on the past, but how it speaks to the ongoing social and political challenges we face.
In a world where meaningful conversations about extremism, violence, and identity are more urgent than ever, "Springerstiefel" provides a crucial platform for understanding and reflection. Thank you both for your courage, humanity, and dedication to these critical discussions.
