Neuburg distances itself from Paul Winter: Youth demands renaming!

In the district of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen there is a heated debate about Paul Winter's past, which has now also reached the youth district day! The city of Neuburg has already revealed the honorary citizenship of Winter, and the school that bore its name is renamed. In a recent meeting, the youth district council clearly spoke out for this renaming and demands that the school itself should be responsible for the new name, not politics.

"We have to promote an actively critical culture of remembrance in dealing with Paul Winter," says Lukas Schorer, the spokesman for the youth district council. However, the discussion about winter is only part of the bigger problem: dealing with the time of National Socialism in Neuburg is inadequate. Schorer points out that the city's Wikipedia entry treats many historical epochs, but does not adequately cover the Nazi era. This shows how important it is to deal with the past and actively shape the culture of remembrance.

The pressure grows!

The voice of the youth district council is an important step in the discussion about the critical examination of history. The demand for a comprehensive processing of National Socialism could have far -reaching consequences for the entire region. It remains to be seen how the school and the city administration will react to these demands. Time is pushing, and society expects clear signs of responsibility and change!
