Gegen das Vergessen: Dieses Hörbuch erinnert an den Schriftsteller und DDR-Regimekritiker Jürgen Fuchs (1950-1999). Schon früh erhält er Publikationsverbot, 1976 wird er verhaftet und ins Stasi-Gefängnis Berlin-Hohenschönhausen gebracht, 1977 nach West-Berlin abgeschoben. Dort engagiert er sich weiter, hält Kontakt zur Bürger- und Friedensbewegung in der DDR, setzt sich in seinen Werken mit seiner Verfolgung und der dogmatischen und inhumanen Gesellschaft auseinander. Damit steht er auch im Westen wie kaum ein anderer im Visier des MfS und ist zahlreichen "Zersetzungsmaßnahmen" ausgesetzt. Nach dem Mauerfall bemüht sich Fuchs um Aufklärung der Stasi-Verbrechen. 1999 stirbt er mit nur 48 Jahren an Leukämie.

Nessuno sa il mio nome è la seconda raccolta di saggi di James Baldwin pubblicata per la prima volta nel 1961 e scritta durante la sua permanenza in Europa, quando la distanza dagli Stati Uniti, fortissimamente voluta, gli aveva permesso di riflettere in modo nuovo sulla condizione delle persone nere in una società dominata dai bianchi. Trascendere la sterile categoria di blackness, sia essa quella imposta dal mondo bianco o quella eretta a scopo difensivo dalla comunità nera, divenne il nucleo dell’opera di Baldwin come scrittore.
