Join us for the book presentation of ,,Deutsch genug? Warum wir endlich ...... über Russlanddeutsche sprechen müssen" on Thursday, May 15, 2025, from 19:00 to 22:00 at the Haus des Deutschen Ostens in Munich. The event will feature participants Ira Peter from Mannheim and Dr. Nino Aivazishvili-Gehne from the University of Regensburg.

This presentation will delve into the experiences and histories of the approximately 2.5 million Russlanddeutsche living in Germany, who often face stereotypes such as being seen as solely loyal to Putin or only speaking Russian. Ira Peter, who moved to Germany from Kazakhstan at the age of nine, will share her personal journey and the broader narrative of the Russlanddeutsche community, touching on themes of identity, integration, and the consequences of short-sighted policies.

This book is not just a recount of history; it challenges us to reflect on German identity and the importance of understanding diverse backgrounds.
