Content Left Column:
Guest workers, foreigners, punks and dirt? In the 1960s and 1970s, Kreuzberg was always perceived as a marginalised district for the forgotten and outsiders of society. Today, the district looks very different. Although many still see Kreuzberg as the symbol of a multicultural Germany, a lot has happened in the borough in recent decades due to gentrification and ongoing debates about integration and migration.
Trotz aller Veränderungen ist aber gerade die Geschichte der Gastarbeitermigration für immer eng mit Kreuzberg verwachsen und prägt bis heute über den Bezirk hinaus das urbane Berlins. Gleichzeitig bleiben diese Aspekte der Vergangenheit und Gegenwart der Stadt oft im Verborgenen und sind für viele nicht leicht zugänglich. Warum haben sich die ersten Gastarbeiter*innen in Berlin hier niedergelassen? Wie veränderten sie den Bezirk und wie veränderte der Bezirk ihre Lebensweisen? Was ist davon heute noch übriggeblieben?
