Since the Middle Ages, Africans have lived in Germany as slaves and scholars, guest workers and refugees. After Germany became a unified nation in 1871, it acquired several African colonies but lost them after World War I. Children born of German mothers and African fathers during the French occupation of Germany were persecuted by the Nazis. After World War II, many children were born to African American GIs stationed in Germany and German mothers. Today there are 500,000 Afro-Germans in Germany out of a population of 80 million. Nevertheless, German society still sees them as "foreigners," assuming they are either African or African American but never German. In recent years, the subject of Afro-Germans has captured the interest of scholars across the humanities for several reasons. Looking at Afro-Germans allows us to see another dimension of the nineteenth- and early twentieth-century ideas of race that led to the Holocaust. Furthermore, the experience of Afro-Germans provides insight into contemporary Germany's transformation, willing or not, into a multicultural society. The volume breaks new ground not only by addressing the topic of Afro-Germans but also by combining scholars from many disciplines.

It is high time that this
It is high time that this tag of “foreigners” be applied for children of parents of mixed race!! In this globalized era that we are living in, where we are free to move between strata of hierarchy in class, culture, and country (you name it!!) where there is free movement between societies and culture, it is ridiculous that we have this sort of narrow minded outlooks!! We are being hypocrites if we welcome the aspect of it being so easy where access to one thing is appreciated and another to discredit certain other aspects like mixed marriages, etc!!
Germans

Africans are treated badly
I agree with farhaj. Africans are treated very badly all over the world. I guess this is the main reason in which we find black people criminals in the most part of the world.
