after much arm twisting on the part of the government Deutsche Bahn has finally relented. The railway had previously refused to allow an exhibition detailing the deportations of jews during the NS regime to be mounted in its railway stations. DB chief Mehdorn had suggested that the stations were not the right venue for the topic, suggesting a museum would be better as the stations are too crowded and people are in to much of a hurry - thereby showing that he missed the goddamn point entirely. The exhibition follows a similar successful french project detailing the deportations of 11,000 french jewish children. Looks like DB is practicing a little Vergangenheitsbewältigung of its own....
Scatboarding IS a crime!
