Vasco Esteves

Veio de Portugal para a Alemanha em 1969 como refugiado político. Em Portugal, foi dirigente estudantil, e na Alemanha lutou pelos direitos e pela organização dos imigrantes portugueses e apoiou a Revolução dos Cravos em Portugal.

É considerado uma testemunha histórica sobretudo dos anos 60 e 70, quer da resistência contra o fascismo em Portugal, quer da primeira geração de imigrantes portugueses na Alemanha Federal.
