Reading with Gamze Kubaşık and Christine Werner

Reading takes place in cooperation with the bookstore Sputnik and the Seebrücke Postdam.

Semiya is fourteen years old, Gamze twenty, when their fathers were murdered by the right-wing extremist terrorist cell "National Socialist Underground", NSU. The two young people who grew up in Germany share the same pain. The prejudgement of the German police and the disinterest of the public hit them both with full force.

In this non-fiction book for young people, the young women, who are connected by their fate, tell directly how they experienced the shocking events at the time and how the murders tore them out of their previous lives in memoirs, phone calls and chats. But also how they were able to develop a tremendous strength together that has kept them fighting to this day: against forgetting and for a future without exclusion.
