Was the Holocaust a unique event or did it have its roots in earlier historical events? How do we put earlier colonial genocides in context and conversation with the Holocaust? On this episode, we talk about the connections between the German genocide of the Herero and Nama in Namibia and its occupation of eastern Europe.

On this episode I talked with Jürgen Zimmerer about this topic. We also looked at the role that the colonial genocides play in German popular memory as well as the fierce current debate over German official apologies and reparations.

Jürgen Zimmerer is a Professor of History at the University of Hamburg.
