Default Berlin Drops Derogatory Name for Metro Station after Anti-Racism Protests

Berlin Drops Derogatory Name for Metro Station after Anti-Racism Protests

July 4, 2020

Berlin's public transport company BVG said it would rename a city centre metro station that has become notorious for bearing a name based on a derogatory word for Black people.

The announcement comes amid a worldwide reckoning with buried legacies of racism and colonial crimes underpinning many western societies that was sparked by the death in the United States of George Floyd, a Black man, at the hands of a police officer.

Berlin's BVG said that the "Mohrenstrasse" metro station - literally Moor Street, using the medieval term for people from North Africa, would be renamed after another nearby street, the Glinkastrasse, named after 19th century Russian composer Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka.

The Moors were Arabs from North Africa. They weren't niggers.

The North African Berbers who were originally referred to as 'Moors' by Europeans weren't semites or negroes but many of the other Muslims who fought the Whites during the conquest of and subsequent series of wars on the Iberian Peninsula from 711 CE on were of many ethnicities including people we Westerners would consider niggers.

The word 'Moros' and its variants in many medieval Southern Euro languages simply refers to dark(er) skinned people in general, and the Semitic Arabs aren't 'from North Africa' their race originally inhabited the deserts of what we call Syria and Saudi Arabia today.

The douchebags stayed in their desert hovels until inspired by the latest ignorant Middle Eastern superstition whose 'prophet' was a goat fucking pedophile to rape, murder and pillage in other lands.


Can you dig it?
