Freedom of the press and opinion

While everybody is talking about refugees, we talk to them: the Divan series with Berlin’s “Tagesspiegel” daily newspaper

Defending freedom of the press and freedom of expression means lending a voice to those who are usually just the subject of others’ conversations. We wanted to talk to “the refugees” that the media has been reporting on constantly over the past few years. What are their thoughts on flight and migration? How do they feel about their current situation in Germany? #jetztschreibenwir (#ourturntowrite) was therefore the Tagesspiegel headline on 15 October 2016. The issue was written and designed by journalists from Syria, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan and other countries who have had to flee their countries of origin.
