Description
This walking tour through Berlin’s city centre is focusing on the often overlooked achievements of its very high-achieving women.
What happened to revolutionary Rosa Luxemburg? Why did Marlene Dietrich leave Germany forever? How did a Third Reich-era pilot go on to lead a sexual revolution in post-war Germany? How did a Prussian queen hold sway over Napoleon? And how did a theologian’s daughter become the most powerful woman in the world?
Discover the life of May Ayim, a German-Ghanian feminst who was the first academics to study Afro-German women’s history in Germany. Learn how German women were left to remove the rubble from post-WWII Berlin’s streets by hand in 1945, and find out how Marlene Dietrich left Germany and began actively opposing the Nazis.
Hear the story of how one girl that grew up in East Germany became one of the most powerful and respected world leaders of the modern age.
