Translated with google translator:

A little lesson in civil disobedience or when cleaning becomes art.

Imagine that you walk quietly in the street. You see an old lady at the crossroads. She leaves a spray of his little black bag of wool covers and graffiti! Do not tell immediately that you have abused alcohol or any intoxicant. No. You may have just crossed Frau Mensah-Schramm. This honorable lady is not against street art. This is our inspiration this week and we will explain why.

Ms. Mensah-Schramm Irmela walks the streets of Berlin for 25 years to eradicate the Nazi markings. This German pensioner of 65 peel off stickers, snatch the posters, covers of black paint slogans such as "Jews in the oven," "foreigners out".

Unfortunately, the general public and mainstream media classify this type of entries in the category racist graffiti. Often wondered about the subject, "Mrs. Clean" Berlin Street likes to recall that it is "not against graffiti in general, only the hate slogans and Nazi symbols." While some would distinguish the tag (ugly, dirty, aggressive), graffiti (nice, nice, clean), Irmela Mensah-Schramm probably find the true distinction between good and bad graffiti.

Yet the police are not particularly sympathetic towards him. According to a police official, his actions constitute "willful damage to property." Like what, there is no age to get to vandalism. Especially when it comes to civil disobedience.

Recently, two Italian directors have devoted a documentary called "The Destroyer hater" (the destructive hatred). So here in action Irmela The hate-destroyer-Mensah-Schramm.
