  • Racism in German discotheques; BEING BLACK IS NOT A CRIME!

    I am an international student who’s lived in Bremen Germany for the past three years. Throughout this period I’ve interacted with several German’s and would personally say most Germans are the nicest people I’ve ever met. This is however when you personally interact with these people after a certain duration. However when it comes to certain social events Germans can become one of the most racist Homo sapiens ever to hit this planet.
    As I first pointed out I have lived in this city for three years and therefore I am very acquainted to its lifestyle and customs. Most German discos on a boring day when customers aren’t flooding in would accept “Anybody” even if they came in a clown suit or in the most “gangster” outfit as if in reminiscence of Tupac or Snoop Dogg. That is of course because they need their revenue. On a busy day, the security men recite their favorite quote to anybody not Caucasian “kein party” which translates no party.
    In fact I’m really puzzled when most Germans claim they knew nothing about the Holocaust. I mean how hard is it to notice the disappearance of about SIX MILLION SAME ETHNIC PEOPLE! This is precisely what is occurring at the discotheques. After standing in a long line in a bloody cold weather, at the end of your endeavor the security man as if it’s the only sentence they ever memorized in their life recites “no party” and redirects you while the other Caucasian behind you simply pass by and enter. What surprises me is that the “friendly” by standers (Germans, Caucasians etc) won’t utter a word. This is simply “OPEN DISCRIMINATION” but nobody cares! I mean if the disco organizers don’t want Blacks, Turks or any other minorities there they can stop wasting our time by writing under their nicely decorated sign boards “NO BLACKS OR MINORITIES ALLOWED”. It is not only time wasting but also embarrassing to be pushed aside simply due to racial affinity. It is demeaning to be black in Germany.
    I could go more into details about the nightlife in Bremen. Rather in conclusion, what I would like to say to other International travelers coming to Bremen and want to have a blast is please avoid clubs like Stubu, La Viva, Starlight, New York New York, Mirage etc, if you are not of Caucasian origin. I don’t regret being born Black and I don’t wish to be White. What I wish is for the cowardly security men to have the decency to tell me in my face I cannot party here because I’m BLACK!

     My husband was offered a very good job in Bremen. He's white and Im black and we have read about the racism in the city. We are not desperate for this job or any headaches. Can you tell me how bad it is there for black people?Thanks!
