<\/b>Images and Words Against Forget\u00adting
<\/b>To mark the 60th anniver\u00adsary of the with\u00addrawal of the drug thalido\u00admide from the market on Novem\u00adber 27, 1961, 65 thalido\u00admide victims had their portraits taken. In the photo book \u201cImages Against Forget\u00adting \u2014 Portraits of Conter\u00adgan Victims\u201d and the accom\u00adpa\u00adny\u00ading book \u201cWords Against Forgetting\u2014Conversations with Conter\u00adgan Victims,\u201d they share stories of their great\u00adest joys, their saddest moments, and their dreams. These two works are not only a biograph\u00adi\u00adcal collec\u00adtion for those affected by Conter\u00adgan, their fami\u00adlies, and their friends, but also docu\u00admen\u00adtary accounts by eyewit\u00adnesses for future gener\u00ada\u00adtions.
The books, published by the Inter\u00adessen\u00adver\u00adband Contergan\u00adgesch\u00e4digter NRW e.V.
