Less than one week and counting...

As students picked up their telephones in the final throes of the pre-trip week, it was clear that the anticipation of what we would experience on this trip was growing.  Today's targeted populations presentations were on the Afro-Germans and Afro-Europeans and many referenced the post-Kolonial efforts to highlight Germany's need to recognize the realities and implications of what happened in its former colonial possessions.  How exciting to think that one week from tomorrow, we will be meeting with members of that group to see what they are doing in Berlin's Afrikanische Viertel.
