Abstract: A primeira newsletter do projecto MEMOIRS tem a data de 5 de maio de 2018. Nela, Margarida Calafate Ribeiro escrevia sobre os fantasmas pós-coloniais à solta na Europa e eu próprio ilustrava este tema abordando os conflitos de memória e de pós-memória presentes na controvérsia em torno da mudança de nomes de rua no chamado “Bairro Africano” de Berlim. No meu breve texto, salientava-se que a alteração iminente da toponímia berlinense, com a retirada de nomes ligados ao passado colonial alemão, era o resultado de vários anos de pressão por parte de organizações agrupadas na iniciativa “Berlim Pós-Colonial”, protagonizada em boa medida por cidadãos alemães de ascendência africana.
The first newsletter of the MEMOIRS project is dated May 5, 2018. In it, Margarida Calafate Ribeiro wrote about the postcolonial ghosts loose in Europe and I illustrated this theme by addressing the conflicts of memory and postmemory present in the controversy surrounding the change of street names in the so-called “African Quarter” of Berlin. In my brief text, it was stressed that the imminent change of the Berlin toponymy, with the removal of names linked to the German colonial past, was the result of several years of pressure from organisations grouped in the “Postcolonial Berlin” initiative carried out to a large extent by German citizens of African descent.
