Umes Arunagirinathan is a heart surgeon, successful author, committed member of German society – and Black. Based on his biography, he pointedly describes the difficulties and discriminatory behavior that people of color have to deal with. Sometimes it is a stupid remark, sometimes a serious violation of their dignity as human beings. At the same time, there is a debate about what one is “actually still allowed to say” without being put in the right-wing corner.<\/p>\n

In his book, Arunagirinathan does not accuse, but clarifies. He does not see himself as a victim, but as a campaigner for a way of living together in which what we have in common plays the main role: the basic color German. This includes the German language, freedom of self-development, equal rights, tolerance and much more. It is what makes this society for Germans of all skin colors. We must not allow racism to destroy these values.<\/p>\n

Dr. Umes Arunagirinathan was born in Sri Lanka in 1978 and came to Germany as a 13-year-old unaccompanied refugee. He is a specialist in cardiac surgery and now works as a functional senior physician at Bremen’s Klinikum Links der Weser.<\/p>\n
