In Germany, thousands again positioned themselves against the right on Saturday. According to the police, about 3,500 people took part in the demonstration “Bochum in solidarity – hand in hand against the right”. In Bordesholm, Schleswig-Holstein, about 2,500 people took to the streets against right-wing extremism.
In Magdeburg, people demonstrated with banners, rainbow flags, soap bubbles and music.
“Diversity without alternative”
Crafted and self-designed signs include ‘Respect instead of exclusion’, ‘Nazis are shit’ and ‘Diversity without an alternative’. According to police reports, up to 3,000 people gathered. The organizers spoke of approximately 6,000 participants.
There were other events with several hundred participants each in Bernau and Gaggenau in Baden-Württemberg. According to the police, more than a thousand people demonstrated in Berlin against an event with former AfD politician André Poggenburg.
For weeks, tens of thousands of people have been taking to the streets across Germany against the right. The protests were sparked by a report from the media company Correctiv about a rally of the radical right on November 25 in Potsdam, which was also attended by AfD politicians and individual members of the CDU and the very conservative Union of Values.
