More about the book

The narrative explores the complex impact of American soldiers' race relations during the 1945 occupation of Germany, revealing how these dynamics influenced German perceptions of race. As biracial children born from American soldiers became focal points of scrutiny, the postwar era saw a shift in Germany's racial discourse from antisemitism to issues surrounding color and blackness. This examination highlights the unexpected consequences of American racial practices on German society, shaping attitudes well into the 1960s.
