Additional quotes by Aminata Touré

What about Black Girls? With German-Turkish boys? What about us? For a long time I didn't even dare to dream certain things because they seemed presumptuous. Dreaming is not about something being realistic. It's about dreaming what you imagine for yourself, for the world, for your environment, for your family. And anyone who has to limit themselves when dreaming is not free or equal.”

“I am looking forward to the new campaign for the nationwide elections for children and youth representatives in Schleswig-Holstein this autumn. With regard to young people, I have one request: continue to be involved, get involved directly, and actively shape your future! There are already almost 80 children's and youth committees in Schleswig-Holstein. In terms of population, this is the highest in the country. But let's get even better! Every generation has the opportunity and the task to change society to some extent for the better.
