Deutsche Afrika-Schau ("German Africa Show") was an exhibition touted as an ethnographic depiction of African people and customs that toured Germany in the 1937 to 1940. It was a continuation of earlier Völkerschauen ("people shows"), a human zoo anthropological exhibition that toured in Germany in the decades before Nazi Germany. Nazi propaganda used the Deutsche Afrika-Schau to support returning the German colonial empire and featured depictions praising the African Askari soldiers who had fought for the last Kaiser during World War I. This was, however, at a time when African minorities in Germany were denied basic rights. Bayume Mohamed Husen who had taught Swahili was part of the show along with .

  • Die Deutsche Afrika-Schau war eine an das Konzept der Völkerschauen anknüpfende Wanderschau, die mit Unterstützung der nationalsozialistischen Behörden von 1936 an durch das Deutsche Reich reiste, bis sie 1940 verboten wurde. Das Unternehmen sollte in Deutschland lebenden Schwarzen eine Verdienstmöglichkeit bieten und diese gleichzeitig unter staatlicher Kontrolle halten. Die Wanderschau warb im Sinne der NS-Propaganda für die Rückgewinnung der ehemaligen deutschen Kolonien. (de)
