The wounds inflicted on 60,000 Herero and 10,000 Namas in the erstwhile colony of Southwest Africa have yet to heal. The scars from the exhibition of human remains in museums and the manipulation for racist scientific hypotheses are added to the scars from concentration camps and slave labor. After a century of denial, both countries' governments agreed to compensate each other for 1.1 billion euros over 30 years. However, the victims' relatives do not believe their demands are being heard.
Germany announced on May 28, 2021 that it had achieved a Reconciliation Agreement with Namibia.Between 1904 and 1908, it committed genocide against the Herero and Nama peoples in South West Africa (now Namibia), according to this agreement. The German Bundestag (German Federal Parliament) and the Namibian Parliament must yet approve the deal.
The draft agreement is one of the first formal Reconciliation Agreements to be negotiated on a state-by-state basis between a former colonial authority and a former colony.
