lecture: Bernd Langer

Today, the double flags of the ›Anti-Fascist Action‹ are the most frequently used symbol in the left-wing scene. Everyone can also imagine something under ›Antifa‹. Antifa same black block; at least that's what the media conveys in the wrong way. Because the history of this movement goes back a long way and can by no means be reduced to militancy.
Anti-fascism became a concept as early as the 1920s, albeit Antifa, as we know them today, dating back to the 1970s and reestablished in the early 1990s. This time phase is also the focus of the lecture, depicting the different political strategies from militancy to alliance politics. Their suitability in view of the current political challenges should be put up for discussion
