As a living archive, it invites users to imagine how remembrance could and should
look like today as an active form of resistance and change. By scrolling over the names of victims, users of the platform
are given an overview of right-wing extremist attacks and police brutality in Germany and the former GDR within the last 40
years, including cases that have not yet been properly recognized as hate crimes by state and local authorities.
