#historianontour

#photogenic is something else, but here some #snapshots of me presenting my current project at the #conference of all institutes for the history of medicine in South-West Germany. It was a good opportunity to get some valuable feedback and constructive criticism. #historianontour #historyofmedicine #history #Heidelberg

My first #publictalk I was quite excited to talk about my research on the workhouse in #Dresden in front of a broader audience. It was a good #experience. This conference was about how people with #disability or who were seen as #socialdeviant were treated in the past, focussing on the timeperiod between 1945-1989/90, the time of the #gdr #ddr I think it is important to remind ourselves how blurred the borders between normal and abnormal behaviour are and how arbitrarily people are labelled and marginalised. Especially today, it is important to remember to what #stigmatisation can lead to... #historianontour #historyofmedicine #history #conference #pirnasonnenstein #pirna

#grateful that I had the chance to visit a few of the original #buildings of the former #workhouse in #leuben and that the current director of the home for disabled people showed me around. I am looking forward to working together in the future. I had very mixed feelings while walking through the space, where people classified as #socialdeviant were housed between 1883 until 1955. #history #letsnotforget #historyofmedicine #historianontour #Dresden #autumn #sun

The #symposium tomorrow will be about how people with #disability or #socialdeviant #behaviour were treated in the #past focussing on the time after #1945 (#ddr #eastgermany #eastgermanhistory #gdr ) The #venue of this #conference will be the former #psychiatry in #pirnasonnenstein where also many people who were seen as "lesser human beings" were #euthanised during #ww2 #thirdreich Let's never forget to what #hate and #scapegoating can lead to... #history #letsnotforget #historianontour

Arrived in #pirna for my #presentation about the #workhouse #dresden tomorrow #sunset #historianontour
