Some 10 million non-citizens living in Germany are unable to vote. In Berlin, the number is even higher – 1 of every 5 residents. The voting exclusion in Germany extends to local issues, even though all residents – regardless of citizenship – are subject to the same taxes, fees and laws. Is it time to allow the growing number of non-citizens in Germany a say at the ballot box? Or would that spark a German identity crisis?  Host Soraya Sarhaddi Nelson talks to: Berta Del Ben, of Democracy for All, an initiative seeking to expand voting rights in Berlin and beyond; Adetoun Kueppers-Adebisi, of the Federal Conference of Migrant Organizations (BKMO), and president of the Black German culture, media and education archive AFROTAK; Jennifer Johnson, American political rights activist in Berlin and former head of the Women’s Caucus Chair for the Democratic Party of Wisconsin.Senior Producer Dina Elsayed and Nelson produced this episode.
