- Bahlsen has long downplayed its involvement in the National Socialist regime. Historians Berghoff and Grieger now reveal the actual conditions under which forced laborers were employed by the company.
- Verena Bahlsen's claims that her grandfather treated forced laborers 'well' have raised eyebrows. Grieger points out that such narratives belong to the outdated discourse of the 1970s and 1980s and are no longer tenable in contemporary discussions.
- The conversation surrounding corporate roles during the Nazi regime is more relevant than ever. Grieger encourages a critical reassessment of historical narratives and warns against reverting to old misconceptions.
- The historians advocate for a deeper exploration of Bahlsen's past to uncover the truth about its treatment of forced laborers. There is a call for the public to engage more with the historical realities.
