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. https://www.news18.com/news/world/be...s-2700535.html |

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

'Moors'
Quote:
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.
