Is it enough to just remember? We are standing here in front of the Gestern Heute Morgen – Selbstjustiz Stele. This stele is a stark reminder of the dark days of August 1992. During those horrific days, Rostock-Lichtenhagen became synonymous with xenophobic violence. This stele stands as a silent sentinel. It represents the “vigilante justice” that gripped this city. It serves as a chilling reminder of the consequences of unchecked hatred and prejudice. The Gestern Heute Morgen – Selbstjustiz Stele is not just a monument to the past. It’s a call to action for the present and future. It reminds us that we must remain vigilant against all forms of intolerance. We must remember that the fight for a just and equitable society is an ongoing one.
