With reference to the report of 17.07.2020 on the coloring of colonial monuments and street names in Berlin, we would like to clarify that neither the alliance Decolonize Berlin e.V. - carrier of the coordination office for the creation of a city-wide concept for the reappraisal of the colonial history of Berlin - nor its member associations had knowledge of this action or were involved in it.  

Neither was the Decolonize e.V. alliance the author of the flyers left on site or of the press release of those professing this action.
