![Recht ist ein Sticker auf blauem Untergrund zu sehen. Der Sticker ist rechteckig und rot. Das Rechteck ist in drei Teile unterteilt, so dass drei Boxen untereinander entstehen. In jeder Box steht in weißer Schrift "Wo kommt eigentlich der Ru[h]m her?". In der linken Bildhälft ist im Hintergrund des aufgeklebten Stickers der Flensburger Hafen im Sommer zu sehen. Zwei Menschen laufen Hand in Hand am Hafen entlang.](https://flensburg-postkolonial.de/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/dsc05211-scaled-e1650976396581-966x1024.jpeg)
