We are grateful for your ongoing concern about the political appropriations and misuses of Dietrich Bonhoeffer's life and legacy. Board members and staff members of the Bonhoeffer Haus in Berlin, a Memorial and Place of Encounter, share those concerns. They have issued a statement condemning such appropriations. 

You can read the statement here in English.

Victoria Barnett: "There's no such thing as a Bonhoeffer moment."

Mac Loftin: "The new Bonhoeffer movie isn't just bad. It's dangerous."
