Editor who grew up black in Nazi Germany dies
MIAMI -- Hans Massaquoi, a former managing editor of Ebony magazine who wrote a distinctive memoir about his unusual childhood growing up black in Nazi Germany, has died. He was 87.
His son said Massaquoi died Saturday, on his 87th birthday, in Jacksonville. He had been hospitalized over the Christmas holidays.
"He had quite a journey in life," said Hans J. Massaquoi,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Jr.,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], of Detroit. "Many have read his books and know what he endured. But most don't know that he was a good,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], kind,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], loving,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fun-loving, fair,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], honest, generous,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], hard-working and open-minded man. He respected others and commanded respect himself. He was dignified and trustworthy. in 1999 and a German translation was also published.
Massaquoi's mother was a German nurse and his father was the son of a Liberian diplomat,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. He grew up in working class neighborhoods of the port city of Hamburg.
Massaquoi recounted a story from 1933, when he was in second grade in Hamburg. Wanting to show what a good German he was, Massaquoi said he cajoled his baby sitter into sewing a swastika onto his sweater. When his mother spotted it that evening,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], she snipped it off, but a teacher had already taken a snapshot. Massaquoi,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the only dark-skinned child in the photo, is also the only one wearing a swastika.
He writes that one of his saddest moments as a child was when his homeroom teacher told him he couldn't join the Hitler Youth.
"Of course I wanted to join. I was a kid and most of my friends were joining," he said. "They had cool uniforms and they did exciting things - camping, parades, playing drums."
Germany was at war by the time he was a teenager and he describes in the book the near-destruction of Hamburg during the Operation Gomorrah bombing attack in the summer of 1943,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
He wrote about becoming a "swingboy" who took great risks by playing and dancing to versions of American swing music, which was condemned by the Nazi regime. After the collapse of Germany at the end of the war,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he said he was able to save his mother and himself from starvation by playing saxophone in clubs that catered to the American Merchant Marine.
Eventually he left Germany, first joining his father's family in Liberia,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], before going to Chicago to study aviation mechanics. Army while on a student visa in 1951. suit over Islamic diet
