Many of their remains were shipped to Berlin by Moritz Merker on request of museum director Felix von Luschan for racist research. Descendant families have been demanding their repatriation since decades without knowing where exactly the ancestors were kept.

Mangi Molelia ruled the kingdom of Kibosho at the slopes of mount Kilimanjaro from 1897-1900. He succeeded his powerful father Mangi Sina, who resisted the German colonial army, but was eventually defeated in 1891 by Hermann von Wissmann.

On Sunday, we are opening a small but special exhibition: Celebrating Womanhood. Cultural Heritage from #Kilimanjaro. It combines historical objects with current knowledge and diverse perspectives – and shows the significance of this cultural heritage, which is over 100 years old, to this day.

Vor 10 Jahren schuf die #UN ein Mandat für die Rechte von Menschen mit #Albinismus. Seither hat sich viel bewegt – aber brutale Gewalt wie der Mord an Asiimwe N. in #Tansania 2024 zeigt: Der Kampf ist nicht vorbei. Post aus #Genf – von @seitzramona.bsky.social:

Post aus Genf: UN-Expertise für Menschen mit Albinismus

Seit zehn Jahren gibt es das UN-Mandat einer unabhängigen Expertin für Menschen mit Albinismus. Vieles wurde erreicht, große Aufgaben liegen noch bevor.

Today on International Albinism Awareness Day, I share my latest for @riffreporter.bsky.social (in German). Few days ago when in Geneva, I wrote about 10 years of UN mandate for the Independent expert on rights of persons with albinism. www.riffreporter.de/de/internati...

When we say God Over Everything (GOE), It is stopping your work, study, or hustle to pray. It’s choosing halal even when haram feels easier and Fun. May Allah guide us to the right path and grant us khusnul khatima. Ameen.
