Papers dealing with how German popular culture responds to racial violence in modern Germany and Europe. How the non-Caucasian "Others" of Germany and Europe confront and force society to deal with their presence and contributions to society. Comparative submissions and those dealing with responses to racial violence in other European countries will receive full consideration.
