Call for a demonstration on 8. May in Kassel
We, the anti-fascist initiative may want on 8. May bring the demands for the denazification of all areas of society and a society based on solidarity instead of exclusion on the streets! The demonstration marks the beginning of a series of events, which lasts until June 2nd. On the anniversary of the liberation from fascism, we want continuities of right-wing violence and discrimination in Kassel – and beyond – to name, make the resistance against it visible, Form anti-fascist alliances and demand a better life for everyone!
Kassel has become a symbol of right-wing terror and racism: the murder of Halit Yozgat and Walter Lübcke, the attempted murder of Ahmed, the attack on Effe and the recent bomb threats from the NSU 2.0 against the Walter Lübcke School. The attacks and acts of terrorism in Kassel, along with the attack in Halle and the murders in Hanau, are part of the recent history of right-wing violence, those from racist, anti-Semitic and anti-feminist beliefs are perpetrated. racism, nationalism, anti-Semitism, Antifeminism, Queer hostility and fascism are deeply inscribed in social structures. The breeding ground for right-wing violence is a social climate, where inhuman positions are not resolutely rejected, but right movements even experience influx. State institutions also provide the breeding ground for right-wing violence, who are deeply involved in the NSU complex, not release the files, Do not consistently pursue existing right-wing structures and criminalize those affected instead of protecting them. The demand from those affected and the anti-fascist:within, to draw far-reaching consequences from the acts, remains unheard. To remove the ground from right-wing violence, it is also important to face it there, where it is expressed in discriminatory attributions and everyday events. Black, (post)migrant, jewish, queeres, antifaschistisches und feministisches Leben sind gesellschaftliche Realität, which must be protected from this violence. This includes the development of offensive solidarity practices and the strengthening of resistance against right-wing violence – through consistent remembering and making visible an alternative based on solidarity in regional and supra-regional alliances!
Solidarity against right-wing violence in Kassel and everywhere!
