Uncategorized Download To My Calendar
Join Professor Fatima El-Tayeb of UCSD?s Ethnic Studies Department for a discussion of the 1904-1907 Herero and Nama genocide that Germany undertook in German South West Africa (modern-day Namibia) against the Herero, Nama and San people.

Considered the first genocide of the 20th century, it was a campaign of racial extermination and collective punishment to combat the anti-colonial resistance of the indigenous people of Southern Africa.

Dr. El-Tayeb will also discuss the ongoing struggle for reparations from the German government.
