Ceremonial naming of the Çetin Mert Park

11th May | 3 pm | Green Space Skalitzer Str./Mariannenstr.

Çetin Mert (1970-1975) lived with his family in Kreuzberg. His mother Münevver was one of the first migrant workers to come to West Berlin from Turkey. On his 5th birthday, May 11, 1975, Çetin was playing on what was then Gröbenufer (now May-Ayim-Ufer) near Oberbaumbrücke when he fell into the Spree and drowned. The full width of the Spree belonged to East Berlin and entering the border area was life-threatening. He could not be rescued. Çetin Mert was one of the youngest victims of the division of Berlin (1961-1989).  Before he died, four children had already drowned near the Oberbaum Bridge. After his death, there were protests by Berliners of Turkish origin. In October 1975, the Senate and the GDR government signed an agreement on rescue measures in the event of accidents in Berlin's border waters. To prevent further accidents, a fence was erected on the banks of the Gröbenufer.

 

T The following spoke: Clara Herrmann (District Mayor Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg), Anna von Arnim-Rosenthal (Berlin Wall Foundation, Director of the East Side Gallery), Dr. Jens Schöne (Deputy Berlin Commissioner for the Reappraisal of the SED Dictatorship, BAB), Safter Çınar (Board Spokesman Turkish Federation in Berlin-Brandenburg). Musically framed by: Encan Acıkada.

Film evening “Mein Kiez. History(s) of the divided Berlin”

16th May | 6 pm | Roof top FHXB Museum

As a film student in 1991, Can Candan interviewed migrants of Turkish origin from Kreuzberg: What did the fall of the Wall mean for them and their everyday lives? What fears and hopes did they associate with it? How did they deal with the flare-up of racism?

In “Walls 2.0”, authors Jana König, Elisabeth Steffen and Inga Turczyn interview some of the participants in “Duvarlar” again: How do they view issues such as racism, nationalism and economic exploitation today? Are there new 'walls'? People from the eastern part of Berlin also have their say.

 

“Duvarlar - Mauern - Walls” (D, 2000), directed by Can Candan
