I love stumbling on things during archival work. Maybe this is common knowledge, but I didn't know that after the 1896 Colonial Exhibition in Berlin some 20 people brought to Germany to be 'displayed' remained. These people were overwhelming men from the German colonies. Has anyone written on this?

I’m very happy to announce that I won a book prize from the Berkshire Conference of Women Historians.

You can download the book for free at tinyurl.com/kahnbk. It’s about the history of Turkish migration to Germany and anti-migrant racism.
