Sugestnames For A College Movie Fest

If zicken

Hi,

of recent events I have time to write down my frustrations here.

We had to unserer Fotografiegruppe im August ein Portrait-Shooting in einer Ruine veranstaltet. Ein echt toller Platz. Das Wetter war super und es waren einige Damen als Motive (neudeutsch Modells) anwesend . Also sollte einem schönen Tag eigentlich auch nichts im Wege stehen....

Mein erstes Motiv war eine junge Dame, die das vorher noch nie gemacht hatte (Ich nenne sie hier mal Modell X). Es schien ihr viel Spaß zu machen. Darüber hinaus hatte sie verschiedene Outfits dabei und auch ein paar schöne Ideen. Ich hatte zwar an dem Tag auch noch andere fotografiert, aber von ihr hatte ich die meisten Aufnahmen gemacht.

Zu Hause war ich von den Ergebnissen begeistert und hatte bis jetzt natürlich auch so manches Foto in der fotocommunity veröffentlicht. Die Resonanz war durchweg gut. Ich denke auch, dass sie auf den meisten Aufnahmen gut und vorteilhaft rüber kam. Auch von den anderen Teilnehmerinnen habe ich ein paar Fotos veröffentlicht. Die waren damit durchweg zufrieden.

Gestern kontaktiert mich Modell X und meint, dass die Fotos schrecklich seien und verlangte, dass ich sie aus der fotocommunity löschen soll. Da war ich erst mal total baff. So etwas kann natürlich vorkommen und wäre an sich noch kein Beinbruch, aber dass es der Dame erst nach einem Monat einfällt, als ich schon jede Menge Zeit in die Bearbeitung der Aufnahmen investiert hatte, das ist das was mich etwas ärgert und frustriert.

Sie bekommt jetzt noch, as promised, a copy on CD. I will delete all the originals, because they are worthless to me. What should I do with photos that I can not publish?

If I have learned something from the whole story, then it is: Say
accurately predicted from what may happen with such recordings. Especially when those photos never before has of can do. IT CAN avoid much frustration.

The joy of photography I'm going through such Zickereien definitely not spoil and can hope that this remains an exception.

LG all Josef

Addendum:
I now have decided that they get nothing from me. Why should you what type, what they find horrible. I'm not a monster. ;-)

Why was it right to cancel the exhibition?

Statements of support...

"As a retired Sergeant Major who served in the United States Army for 28 years, 23 of which were in foreign countries, including 20 in Germany, I stand in support of Philippa Ebéné's decision to rescind her support for this exhibit. In fact, I as I 'm certain would my fellow soldiers who served either in the Second World War or as a member of the US Occupational forces commend her for her courage. We hope that her superiors will recognize her as a woman of principal and at some point resurrect this effort with appropriate dignity. Additionally, I applaud the efforts of the community of persons of color in Germany for their support of Ms.Ebéné. "

Sincerely,

Sergeant Major Milton Johnson, US ARMY RET.

--

This summer I spent three months in Germany, six weeks of which was as a student in Berlin. As part of my coursework for my class, "Berlin After the War," I visited several museums and exhibits that included representations of the US Troops and Allied Occupational Forces in Germany during and after World War II. Having grown up as a Black German adoptee in an African American military family I frequently heard stories from my father and his friends about their tours in Germany during the war and the occupation period. I was deeply saddened to note that in the museums and exhibitions I visited in Germany nowhere did I find any evidence of Black soldiers’ presence or service. While I am extremely disappointed at the cancellation of the exhibition, I agree with Philippa Ebéné's decision. People of Color who fought against the Nazi regime and therefore played a crucial role in breaking the regime , are heroes and deserve to be recognized as such. The manner in which this exhibit would have proceeded would have been disrespectful. As much as I would have loved to have seen Germany acknowledge them, I would not have appreciated having their contributions degraded. I am grateful to Phillippa Ebéné for insisting on an appropriate tribute.

cancellation of the exhibition "The Third World in the Second World War": courageous, proper and important!


(English version follows German version)


Die Inspired Comm-Unity begrüßt die Entscheidung der Geschäftsführerin der Werkstatt der Kulturen die Ausstellung "Die Dritte Welt im Zweiten Weltkrieg" abzusagen.

Inspired Comm-Unity ist ein 2008 gegründetes Netzwerk Schwarzer Menschen in Berlin. Ziel des Netzwerkes ist es, die selbstbestimmte Repräsentation Schwarzer deutscher Geschichte und Gegenwart in Deutschland zu fördern, Rassismus entgegen zu wirken und damit die Gemeinschaft Schwarzer Menschen bundesweit to strengthen. In addition to the implementation of the annual Black History Month in Berlin, supported Inspired Comm-Unity creative, innovative and contemporary contributions of black people in Germany.

We observe with growing concern the public discussion about the cancellation of the exhibition and particularly the defamatory statements about Philippa level and their perceived motivation.

is a fact: The exhibition portrays problematically the contributions of Black people in the Diaspora during the Second World War. Only because of the title, could create the impression gained all black people belong to the so-called "Third World ". Sorry

We understand that it is still not in 2009 obviously possible to commemorate the contributions of Black people during the Second World War in a dignified manner: A simple but clear" thank you "is long overdue

the workshop. the cultures are accused, they operate with the cancellation of the exhibition censorship. In fact it is so that Philippa Ebéné is censored. We find this unbelievable and shameful!

This exhibition is of significant importance to many people in Germany, not least for the that can identify so personally, that people have fought and their relatives, as well as school children from different ethnic backgrounds. It is in this context to emphasize the negative posts is inappropriate, tasteless and shows great disrespect. One such "... yes, but who were also evil" statement would be equally inappropriate in other situations memorial. Such episodes as the "Mufti of Jerusalem" must of course also be treated only in an appropriate context for it. not to support

The decision by Philippa Ebéné the issue long ago is not censorship, but a clear expression of opinion regarding the need for the effects and intentions of cultural events in a multicultural Stadt wie Berlin gut zu überprüfen.

Inspired Comm-Unity steht voll und ganz hinter der Entscheidung von Philippa Ebéné und findet diese Mutig, Richtig und Wichtig!




English Version

Cancellation of the Exhibition "Die Dritte Welt im Zweiten Weltkrieg" (The Third World in the Second World War): Brave, Correct and Important!

Inspired Comm-Unity welcomes the decision of the head of the Werkstatt der Kulturen to cancel the exhibition "Die Dritte Welt im Zweiten Weltkrieg".

Inspired Comm-Unity is a network of Black people in Berlin, formed in 2008. The aim of this network is to promote the self-determined representation of Black people in Germany, in historical as well as in present day contexts. We also combat racism while at the same time strengthen the network of Black people across the whole country. Alongside the co-ordination of the annual Black History Month in Berlin, Inspired Comm-Unity supports creative, innovative and contemporary contributions of Black people in Germany.

We have been observing the public discussion about the cancellation of the exhibition with increasing concern. We particularly object to the defamatory statements about Philippa Ebéné and her alleged motivations.

Fact is: The exhibition portrays the contributions of Black people in the Diaspora during the World War Two in a problematic way. The impression could be gained from the title alone that all Black people belong to the so-called "Third World".

We deeply regret, that even in the year 2009 it is obviously still not possible to commemorate the contributions of Black people during World War Two in a dignified and appropriate way. A simple but unequivocal "Thank You" is long overdue.

The Werkstatt der Kulturen has been accused of censorship. In actual fact, it is Philippa Ebéné who has been censored. We find this unbelievable and shameful!

This exhibition is of great importance for many people in Germany, not least for those who can identify with it personally: people who fought in World War Two and their relatives, as well as school children of various ethnicities. To stress the negative contributions in this context is inappropriate, crude and is distinguished by a large dose of disrespect. A similar "...yes, but they were also bad" statement would be just as inappropriate in other commemorative situations. Episodes like that of the so-called "Mufti of Jerusalem" should of course also be focussed on, however the context must be fitting.

The decision of Philippa Ebéné to not support the exhibition is a long way from censorship. It is in fact a clear statement of opinion about the importance of thoroughly assessing the effects and intentions of cultural events in a multi-cultural city like Berlin.

Inspired Comm-Unity fully supports the decision taken by Philippa Ebéné and considers it to be brave, correct and important!
