Documents and supports the activities of Black Germans internationally and promotes scholarship relating to the historic and contemporary presence of Black people in Germany , Black Germans in the United States, and beyond. In partnership with interested scholars, institutions, and organizations, BGHRA advocates for the interdisciplinary inclusion of Black German history, life experience, and contemporary culture in education, and encourages bilateral exchange opportunities.
This year’s three-day, virtual event, Rekinning, Reckoning, and Justice, will be held on February 20-22, 2025 and will be free and open to the public. Our annual BGHRA Conference theme asks, what is next for us? what does justice look like? We wish to consider reparative justice and how, using this framework, we can reckon with state violence and displacement, as well as with family rupture. How are we healing?
