Berlin plans two monuments to migrants DW 04/27/2024
Briefly

Migrants are always portrayed in negative terms. I think it's time to relate the positive things also about the first generation. Many arrived unable to speak German, but they worked, brought up families and kept this country running. I want the voices of these people to be heard.
More than 25% of Germany's 83 million people have a migrant background, according to the Federal Statistics Office. Among children, the figure rises to 40%.
Over a million monuments are estimated to exist in Germany. Yet few reflect its multicultural history. Frankfurt first floated the idea of commemorating 'guest workers' in 2004, but a result is not expected until the 2030s.
