Marwa El-Sherbini, during the third month of her pregnancy, is stabbed to death by Alex Wiens in a German courtroom in 2009. Her husband rushes to help, gets seriously injured by the perpetrator as well as shot at by a German federal police officer. Alex Wiens remains unharmed. He was charged with making racist harassment of Marwa El-Sherbini and her three-year-old child in a playground.

In this court scene, a deeply rooted and cultivated violence against everyone who is “different” is unleashed in Germany. The exposed profound racist structure of an intergenerational reproduced colonial domination and ethno-nationalist ideology is downplayed in the German public sphere as an isolated case.
