Generation ADEFRA – Schwarze Frauen in Deutschland (Black Women in Germany) is a Berlin-based German cultural and political organization for Black women and other women of color. Founded in 1986, it is considered the first grassroots activist group for Afro-German women.
== History == ADEFRA was founded in 1986 by a small circle of Black feminists and lesbians, including Katja Kinder, Elke Jank, Katharina Oguntoye, Eva von Pirch, Daniela Tourkazi, Judy Gummich, and Jasmin Eding. They were inspired by the American poet and activist Audre Lorde and other activists' coinage of the political self-definition "Afro-German," and had joined together in part to produce the book Showing Our Colors: Afro-German Women Speak Out. As confirmed in ADEFRA's 20th-anniversary brochure in 2006, the initial meetings with Lorde, her subsequent visits to Germany, and the publication of Showing Our Colors were crucial catalysts for the movement.
