(Distantly GR-related) Black Lives in Germany : A Multigenerational Struggle for Acceptance

[Kai Frederik Lorentzen]

"Enzian is also known, though not to his face, as Otyikondo, the 
Half-breed. His father was a European. Not that it makes him unique 
among the Erdschweinhöhlers here: there's German, Slavic and Gypsy blood 
mixed in by now too. Over the couple of generations, moved by 
accelerations unknown in the days before the Empire, they have been 
growing an identity that few can see as ever taking final shape. The 
Rocket will have a final shape, but not its people."

(Gravity's Rainbow, p. 316, Picador/Viking)
