What would life be like for a Black boy growing up in Nazi Germany? This unprecedented autobiography answers that question with the spellbinding true story of Hans J. Massaquoi’s life in Hamburg during the height of Hitler’s regime.

Hans is the son of a Black Liberian diplomat father and a white German mother. His father returns to Africa at the beginning of the war, leaving them behind in poverty and without the means to flee. Bewildered, Hans is force-fed ceaseless anti-semitic and anti-African propaganda in his schools. Within this tense atmosphere, increasingly violent Nazi policies and Allied bombing raids make Hans and his mother’s lives a desperate day-to-day struggle for survival.

Through countless close calls, Hans perseveres by his ingenuity, strength of character and a liberal dose of good luck - eventually going on to find his father in Liberia and emigrate to America.

Peter Jay Fernandez’s intense narration brilliantly punctuates all of the tragedy and triumph in this monumental audiobook.

Destined to Witness: Growing Up Black in Nazi Germany chronicles the compelling journey of Hans-Jürgen Massaquoi, offering a poignant perspective on life during Hitler's reign. For twelve harrowing years, Hans, among the marginalized non-Aryan population, endured dehumanization under the Nazis. His story is a powerful testament to resilience and prompts deep contemplation.

The narrative's engaging tone ensures a riveting read, maintaining a steady pace that never falters into dull moments. Hans's story captivates, providing insight into a lesser-known aspect of history. I highly recommend adding this thought-provoking biography to your reading list for its empowering narrative and the invaluable perspective it offers on a tumultuous era.

I found this book intriguing. It allows one to experience the life of people living in Nazi Germany and two subsequent countries, Liberia and the USA & offers much in gaining an understand of the varied thoughts of the people living under the rulership at that time. The story opens up one’s understanding bringing compassion for the suffrage of those not in agreement with the rulership of the day. Fantastic read

All should read this detailed story of the life of Hans Massaqoui
