Mokka-Milch-Eisbar Reopens on Karl-Marx-Allee in Berlin
The Mokka-Milch-Eisbar, a legendary café on Karl-Marx-Allee in Berlin, has reopened. The article also discusses the Postwendekinder network, which gives a voice to the youngest generation born in the GDR. Anja Görnitz, who grew up in a Plattenbau in Berlin-Marzahn, shared how she often concealed her background after the Wende to avoid stigma. Now, more than a decade later, the Vierte Generation Ost, who never experienced the GDR, are exploring their roots.
