A Multimedia Project about artists and their right to express their views freely. D w dot com the freedom. Is celebrated seventieth anniversary ill be talking to German Jewish anthropologist danny krantz about the difficult relationship between germans and jews welcome. Thank you theyve got a funny back theres a german rapper a moroccan heritage in his lyrics he compares himself to holocaust victims. How does that make you feel as lose despite involves. I find it repulsive i had to ask myself what he thinks hes doing. As
that funny thing is an idol for many young people in germany what implicit message is he sending to them on the spot thank. You i think when a public figure makes this sort of statement and there is no reaction or only a delayed reaction. The message is that its totally ok. And whats your funding meaning. Its ok to Say Something disrespectful to auschwitz survivors. Is coming and its also ok to be disrespectful to jews to other minorities because you talked about auschwitz and there were only jews that i was fit so it was a mass genocide. It was not even aware of that thank you know probably not which i find highly disturbing. As he mentioned that this controversial musician was awarded the prize he got an awful lot on impious. Definitely. For there are no limits his music is part of the mainstream mainstream. Things but
of course he didnt just appear out of nowhere. Because they stand narratives like this dont just develop overnight to need to do political movements someone had to lay the groundwork. And thats inspiring represents the Youth Culture this ruin the same background as the f. T. For example and someone like beren hooker who referred to a Holocaust Memorial as a monument of shame. When this could go in these jews and germany i watching another development with great concern. Theres been a sharp increase recently in the number of muslim immigrants here with some of these people come from a culture that teaches them the jews and israelis are the enemy the. Kindest and least are you concerned about the situation in g. T. C. And because. I thought maybe i would take a more nuanced view of that situation and if not all muslims are fed negative
images of jews by society or by their family. But israel plays a very specific role in the arab world. And i think we as a Heterogeneous Society need to make sure that the debate about israel and palestine is civilized is this. To my posts you know its. Theres just been an incident in berlin where two israelis wearing a kippah were attacked by young men who spoke arabic. Then youre going to the balkans and you told me earlier that you sometimes wear a Star Of David Necklace. Even now before we could see just what not. Because ive never had a problem no ones ever said anything about it no ones ever her arrest me because of it. Obviously a Star Of David Necklace is less noticeable than a kid but we need to talk about the fact that antisemitism is not a marginal phenomenon and studies about Mainstream Society have shown that theres
changed programs have contributed to this positive view among young israelis. Because it was thought. Does is to force survey arrive with these expectations about what happens after that they just project. Is something going to germany or is this simply you see one on this in mind they were projecting and this is a very transnational migration movement. Transnational comes if youre going on here again. As a kind of theres a lot of shuttling back and forth its not migration in the sense of moving somewhere permanently clay tend to come and check things out often because they have some kind of stipend or because theyre studying. There usually highly educated lots of engineers and medical doctors who come here for the opportunities but its not like they plan to live here forever. You cant compare it to the wave of immigration to the United States around Eight Hundred Fifty or so so its not i mean the kufa guys. You could say that theyre moving from the land of the
holocaust to the land of the perpetrators do israelis think in these terms or have they had enough of that. Stuff on its. Stuff on theyve had enough we conducted a Representative Survey and eighty percent of those questioned said that the holocaust did not play a role in their everyday life. But in interviews and ethnographic studies the subject did come up with a comment to mr alice so they emptied my last heist for example you might be on a train with one of the study participants and suddenly they might say hey the trains going to say as in advance a conference this is one these are things that change your awareness obviously they can come as a shock to people. And theyre also confronted with antisemitism and general ignorance about israel going to end up with friends and it is if theyre constantly confronted with The Middle East conflict. Conflict confidant yet the absolute
majority of israelis who are here are liberal secular and politically modern which if not left wing. Is this. They say the holocaust doesnt play a role in if i tell you. Life and its not the First Association that they make with germany what role does the holocaust play in your family the holocaust in iraq from you. This is. Tough its a source of pain a colleague of mine once put it very well he said that when we celebrate holidays its hard to ignore how many members of the family are missing out. On this tank thats even my family its a kind of phantom pain because i never knew those people but it still feels like somethings missing when attuning stop us must fear that she didnt encourage borning to learn and grow up that you started in britain and join our research in germany and occasionally in israel where. Word is that and why it is. On time and i will say that people are my home people with whom i share values and ideals. People in close to and care about it doesnt matter if theyre in britain germany or israel. And i wouldnt call a particular country my home although i have to say and this is something that should make people think that i am aware that in germany there are mechanisms in place that make me foreign land. A family tight its got tired food so im expected to speak about issues from a jewish perspective no one expects me to speak about issues from a german perspective specked. Both perspectives exactly thank you for the. Like you to complete three sentences for. He says that. Relations between jews and germans will have improved. When people stop asking me if i feel safe as a jew in germany and if things got worse after the refugees started arriving if
they didnt. To me the seventieth anniversary of the state of israel means. It means a lot it means theres still a lot of work to do and it means that i must and will continue to work for Israeli Palestinian understanding. Was from a germany is. Germany is the country i grew up in the cologne dialect is my Mother Tongue but i also see germany as a difficult home yes. I feel that puts me in here i have to use an expression from the field of psychology in a double blind. And i cant leave but i cant necessarily stay. There are times when i just have to leave it there are times when a certain type of discourse certain exclusion mechanisms simply drive me to distraction so far. So vile but then there are other times when im really
heartened by the investment that people here make in democracy. Invest but do the. Like me theyre willing to defend and promote democracy diversity and acceptance even and not just tolerance.
