When we were born, we were told as blacks we were inferior. As we grew of age, we realised we were blacks but human. Now though victims we can change our fate for we are sure we colonised no country, kidnapped non to toil for us, dropped bombs on no one, enslaved no people and sent non to the Gas Chambers

The Escape-

On June the 28th, 1998 I and my friend Nwana Benedict climbed into a ship loaded with timber on our way into exile. Five days later we surfaced out of our hideout and in an attempt to convince a surprised crew of our desire to seek asylum in Portugal, we were detained. This chapter illuminates the dramatic 30days in the ship, life as blind passangers, our relationship with the angry crew and the political intuition that convinced them to let us land in Germany. It describes the detail planning behind the 3am disembarkment and the traumatic walk in a cold windy morning to an unknown destination. Breath taking.

 

Chapter 1

 

The Experience

 

On July 30 1998, we landed at the seaport of Nordenham, northern Germany and immediately walked our way to an asylum camp. This chapter unveils the long journey of an asylum seeker in Germany. Life in room number 2 as one of seven men in a 20sqm room. It catalogues the humiliation living as a black in a country still engage in self-denial, the threat of deportation, neo-nazis attacks and the struggle against these vices. It also dwells in my battle with the German deportation apparatus that took us up to the European Court of Human and Peoples Right. Life as a German political prisoner. and much more from illegally crossing borders to attend conferences, and occupying institutions. It is a rich and ongoing journey.

 

Chapter 2

 

Police as Instrument of State Terror

 

The German police has killed more refugees than a combined force of rights extremists and racist forces put together.This chapter tries to examine this anomaliy and traces the mentality of this police force right down to the Defence Squadron used by Hitler to terrorise foreigners. It ponders on the reason why despite such bestiality committed, they go unpunish.It list some victims and how they were killed.

 

Chapter 3

 

The Apatheid Germany

 

In 1982, the German parliament enacted an apatheid legislation called the residence obligation law that confined refugees to specific residencial districts. The official reasons were to curb asylum misuse and protect refugees. Read in this chapter why Germans don't want us to travel without permission and the punishment reserved for violators. This law came into force at a time when calls were loud for the Berlin wall to be torn down, when blacks in South Africa were gradually emerging from the shadow of a white supremacist system. This chapter  tracks why a country that understands the vices of divide and restriction and the virtues of the freedom of movement could impose on others same devilish plans as to make them economic and political liabilities. It catalougues the struggle against this racist apatheid system, the tribulation of the unjustly afflicted and why for us, civil disobedience was and is the only way out.

 

Chapter 4

 

Racism and Legalised State Militias

 

Whites have been taught blacks were apes and they were the modern form of homosapien. This has been the concept of white domination in the last 400 years. This falacious idea outlived every resistance and despite the death of Chris Hanni, Malcom X, Martin Lurther and the  suffering and sacrifices of millions of people, Germany and europe still hold on to this moroned philosophy. This chapter deals with racist guardian concepts and the contradictions between democracy and the existence of armed militias and right extremist formations who would prefer we were all put in Zoos

 

Chapter 5

 

The Interpretation (Political Hypocrisy)

 

For the past 400 years, European countries have overthrown every existing political system by the use of force. Insecured within their borders, self confident European nation-states rolled tanks across borders, enslaved other people and let others do the fighting for them. Unable to shape the world according to their dictates, countries that yesterday brought so much suffering,  pain and humiliation to humanity are trying to forge an economic and political union to compensate for their individual weaknesses. This chapter deals with the true reasons behind the concept of European Unionism, the insecurity that breeds imperialism and the desperate fostering of the guardian concept, anti-Americanism, the desperate Franco-German axis on the one hand and the Anglo-Eastern axis on the other hand and how we are caught in the middle of this elephant dance

Not Guilty is the journey of an African refugee through the complex and restrictive center of fortress Europe as seen through the eyes of one person.

It recounts my daring escape from the enemys' seaport, spending thirty days in a ship loaded with stolen African timber as I brave the banging and roaring waves of the Atlantic Ocean on my way into exile. Germany tried to break my will, discounted my dignity and imprisoned me for sixteen days when I stood my grounds seeking this illusion called freedom. The ship saved my life but Germany took my dreams hostage.

Like millions of others who seek respite on this continent, I faced denigration from man made laws. The instrument of oppression wasn't limited to carefully crafted legislation like the residence obligation law. The German police, a relic of Hitler's notorious schutzstaffel (SS), are the most visible instrument of State oppression that refugees in general and blacks in particular have to face. This book relates the brutality of the German police and the club wielding neo-Nazis, angry for having lost the war. It analyses the fear and insecurity of the Europeans and the brutality and rage with which they continue to prey on their victims.

It is written from the perspective of the victim. From experiencing midnight rades, jumping into airplanes to rescue arrested refugees being deported and facing the true mind of europeans still convinced that blacks are apes and whites modern homosapiens.

Everything written in this piece is just factual and only a microcosm of what we have faced and continue to face. It is written in honour of all those who escaped European puppet systems in Africa to seek protection here but were either murdered or maimed. It is in honour of all those brave ones who still resist on the same spot where Ndeye Mareama, a mother of two from Senegal met her death through a close range Police gun shot in Ascaffenburg, Oury Jallow from Sierra Leone killed and burnt in Police custody in Dessau, Williams from Nigeria permanently put in a vegetative state by police in Düsseldorf.

We colonised no country, kidnapped no one to toil for us, enslaved no people, segregated no one, racially attacked non, imprisoned no one and dropped no bombs on any country. We took no peoples' land, didnt kill a single jew or arab. Weighing us on an honest scale therfore, we are

NOT GUILTY

Nicht Schuldig  beschreibt die Reise eines afrikanischen Flüchtlings durch das komplexe und restriktive Zentrum der Festung Europa aus der Sicht einer Einzelperson.

Es erzählt von meiner waghalsigen Flucht aus dem Hafen des Feindes, 30 Tage in einem mit gestohlenem afrikanischen Holz beladenen Schiff, dem Dröhnen und Brüllen der Wellen des Atlantischen Ozeans trotzend, auf dem Weg ins Exil.

Deutschland versuchte meinen Willen zu brechen und meine Würde herabzusetzen und setze mich für 16 Tage in Gefängnis, weil ich meinen Standpunkt auf der Suche nach der Illusion namens Freiheit vertreten habe.

 

Das Schiff rettete mein Leben, doch Deutschland nahm meine Träume als Geisel.

 

Wie Millionen anderer, die eine Atempause auf diesem Kontinent gesucht haben, wurde auch ich durch menschengemachte Gesetze erniedrigt.

 

Das Instrument der Unterdrückung beschränkt sich nicht auf die bedacht konstruierte Gesetzgebung wie das Residenzpflichtgesetz.

Die deutsche Polizei mit der Mentalität von Hitler's berüchtigter Schutzstaffel (SS), ist das sichtbarste Instrument staatlicher Unterdrückung, der Flüchtlinge im allgemeinen und Schwarze in besonderen ausgesetzt sind.

 

Diese Buch erzählt von der Brutalität der deutschen Polizei und den Prügelschwingenden Neo-Nazis, verärgert, den Krieg verloren zu haben.

Es analysiert die Angst und Unsicherheit der Europäer und die Brutalität und Wut, mit der Sie fortfahren, ihre Opfer zu jagen.

 

Es ist aus der Sicht der Opfer  geschrieben.

 

Es handelt davon, mitternächtliche Razzien am eigenen Leibe zu spüren, in Flugzeuge zu springen, um gefangene Flüchtlinge vor der Abschiebung zu retten,das wahre Gesicht der Europäer zu zeigen, die immer noch davon überzeugt sind, dass Schwarze unter Menschen und Bettler sind und Weisse moderne Homo Sapiens.

Alles, was in dieser Arbeit beschrieben wird ist tatsächlich geschehen und nur ein Mikrokosmos von dem, was wir erdulden mussten und weiter ertragen müssen.

Es ist all denen gewidmet, die den europäischen Marionettensystemen in Afrika entkommen konnten, um hier Schutz zu finden und entweder ermordet oder verkrüppelt wurden.

Es ist all den Tapferen gewidmet, die an der selben Stelle widerstehen, an der  Ndeye Mareama, Mutter von zwei Kindern, in Aschaffenburg durch Polizeikugeln aus Nahdistanz getötet wurde, Oury Jallow aus Sierra Leone im Dessauer Polizeigewahrsam getötet und verbrannt wurde, Williams aus Nigeria in Düsseldorf durch die Polizei in einen permanent vegetativen Zustand versetzt wurde.

Wir haben kein Land kolonisiert, haben niemanden entführt, haben niemanden versklavt, haben niemanden ausgegrenzt, niemanden eingesperrt und keine Bomben auf irgendein Land geworfen.

Wir haben niemanden das Land genommen, nie einen einzigen Juden oder Araber getötet.

 

Vor jedem Gericht der Welt würde das Urteil gegen uns lauten:

 

                         NICHT SCHULDIG

 

 
 

 

Oury Jallou was murdered in Police custody in Dessau on 7th January 2005 and in a desperate move to eliminate any incriminating evidence, his body was incinerate.They called it suicide. We suspect  murder
