Hallo, ich heiße Tschördy Yegane Arani.
Schreibweise meines Namens in der Kindheit: Gita Yeganeh; später “eingedeutscht” auf Empfehlung unseres damaligen Rechtsanwalts hin – was ich heute sehr bedauernswert finde. Mein Name in meinem Ausweis lautet: Gita Marta Yegane Arani.
Meine Pseudonyme sind (u.a.) Tschördy und Palang LY und Palang Latif … .
Ich habe meine Kindheit in der Telemannstraße 5 in Frankfurt verbracht. Von 1979 bis 2021 lebte ich die meiste Zeit im Haus meiner Eltern im Bundenweg 7 in Frankfurt am Main.
Zwischendurch hielt ich mich für längere Phasen in London und an ein paar anderen Orten auf. Dazu schreibe ich später mehr.
In London befand ich mich zumeist an der Adresse. Ridgmount Gardens 75A, London W.C.1, das war in Bloomsbury in der relativen Nähe des British Museum, und, noch näher an der Tube Station Goodge Street.
Der Bundenweg 7 war seit 1980 bis 2021 der Sitz der Edition Farangis Frankfurt am Main. Unser altes Haus – Baujahr 1951, der Architekt war Wilhelm Ulrich aus Frankfurt am Main; meine Eltern erwarben das Haus 1979 von der Familie Wolf, deren Vater es erbaut hatte – unser liebes altes Haus wurde unmittelbar nachdem wir es wegen eines innerfamiliären Streits veräußert haben, abgerissen. Alle Bäume gefällt. Die großen Bäume standen unter Baumschutz … .
Seit Ende Oktober 2021 leben wir hier … und hier ist nun gegenwärtig der Sitz der Edition Farangis und ihrer Projekte in the making > https://farangis.de/hantwercker/

Mein Fokus sind Tierrechte. Ich habe eine eigene Definition über das, was Tierrechte im ethischen Sinne und im rechtlichen Sinne konstituieren sollten. Leider kann ich meine Message kaum raustragen, so wie Sie das bestimmt auch kaum können. Man könnte sich irgendwelchen Clustern anschließen, aber das führt auch zu keiner wirklichen Veränderung.
Hi! My name is Tschördy Gita Marta Yegane Arani. My other names are Palang Latif or Palang LY.
I am an active online publisher, specialized in the fields: Animal Sociology and Animal Rights, Human Rights, Environmental Ethics, and all in relation to Social Conflict/s. My pet subject is Animal Mythologies.
The access to my main pages is here:
and my new webpage, focussing solely on a multiperpectivial angle on Animal Rights related issues:
from right to left, back row: Uropa Wilhelm Lück, Großtante Martha Lück, geb. Fries, Uroma Friedericke Lück geb. Flender, Großtante Frieda Lück and Großonkel Paul Lück. vorne: Gertrud Waltraud Lück (Farangis), Irmgard Lück und Eckhard Lück.
I am currently working on an intensive examination of our family history also in connection with the legacy that my sister Miriam left me for archiving and further publication. So genealogy runs together with processing personal biographical key data.
Hi reader – being a member of the class Homo sapiens, how do we face each other … ?
I do and did have to listen all kinds of quite artistic racist speech, allusions and implications, and yes, in the past I also had direct racist slurs directed against me … by people who broadly tend to act as if they are highly anti-racist, today.
Racism simply becomes more “refined” I think. I’ve been affected by the kind of racism that notices when you are not fitting into the German/ic desired “nordic” normalcy and ideals … .
When your family is tied together by Germany and Middle East, people go bonkers about your ethnicity: “How dare you not be either/or!”. And if you don’t wish to fit into Western mainstream images of being the “mixed-race” type that supposedly applies to you, then you just get blurred out of any of the accepted “ethnic” maps.
I culturally do insist on not identifying as “white”. For information about alternatives to “whiteness” and implications of “whitness”, see my section on “black veganism“.
“Whiteness” resembles, in regards to its intra-human derogatoriness, the constituents of the German “völkisches” thinking, which is a locally, nationally and ethnically limited identifier.
If you don’t know anything about how the notion of “völkisch” worked, and how that pattern of racism functions, then you may want to read Miriam Yegane Arani’s (my beloved sister) presentation about “Race as a Visual Ideology” …

My current blogtivities in German:
- Gruppe Messel; Denkwerkstatt Antispeziesismus
My focus are Animal Rights – in particular my fields are: Animal Mythologies and nonbiologistic Animal Sociology. I have my own definitions about what should constitute Animal Rights, in ethical and in legal terms, i.e. that a definition of Animal Rights must address all detectable layers where nonhuman-derogation can occur, and that reductionist approaches are categorically insufficient > that is, when humans are willing to grant rights to nonhumans though with the given assuption that nonhuman animal behaviour could be seen and described in reductionist bioloctistic terms. We need a view on animality as cultures, instead of enforcing narrow focal views on them that see animal behaviour as limited (like to territory, foraging, breeding, and what have you).
In short: We need a full emancipative process in regards to becoming a society that endorses Animal Rights.
Unfortunately I can hardly spread my message – as little as you probably can spread yours.
One could join in with any social clusters, but I don’t believe that this will really bring about real change.
> Activists that mention all ethical environmental and social issues except animal rights and speciesism. Sounds familiar? Let’s make these awkward exceptions a cause for criticism.
