	Das Denkmal, so Gerz, könne dem mündigen Bürger nicht die Verantwortung für ein aktives und kritisches Politik-Bewusstsein abnehmen, denn - wie auf einer Bodenplatte neben dem versunkenen Denkmal zu lesen ist - "nichts kann sich auf Dauer an unserer Stelle gegen das Unrecht erheben". [G]	The monument, says Gerz, cannot take away the responsibility of adult citizens to foster an active and critical political awareness, since "in the long run, nothing can rise up against injustice in our stead," as can be read on a slab next to the sunken monument.
