Exciting insights into the world
Aside from the cultural events in Kassel, another, more serious topic is making headlines. Reports of the cruel treatment of prisoners in Salvadoran prisons are horrifying. Former inmates report severe abuse: shackles, beatings and even torture practices such as simulating drowning. Edwin Meléndez, one of the detainees, emphasized that they were told: “You are all terrorists,” underlining the brutality of their treatment. The reports from El Salvador have been deemed credible by independent forensic experts and reveal a horrifying picture of institutional torture.
A secret deal between the United States and Venezuela led to the release of imprisoned Venezuelan men who were falsely labeled as terrorists. The majority of them had received minimal legal protection and many complained about the poor conditions in prison. Despite the horrendous experiences, some of them regained their freedom, while they now struggle with ongoing physical and mental health problems.
How the events in Kassel and the global context come together shows that culture and the pursuit of a better life are often closely intertwined. Whether during the magic of winter or in the face of international crises: people deal with their surroundings and the world and look for ways to overcome the challenges.
