Because of a large demonstration against right -wing populism, streets around the Brandenburg Gate are already closed during the day. This was announced by the Berlin Transport Information Center. A “sea of lights” for democracy and against a right of right with around 10,000 participants has been announced for the afternoon from 4.30 p.m.
The organizers mobilize against the AfD, US President Donald Trump and other right-wing populist tendencies. Behind the call is among other Fridays for Future, the campaign organization Campact and the group of parents against the right.
Climate activists Luisa Neubauer and the publicist Carolin Emcke are among the speakers. The organizers said: “We do not leave our democracy and society to the right -wing extremist and hatred. At the moment when Weidel, Trump, Kickl, Musk and Co. spread darkness, we turn the lights on.” The demonstrators should bring flashlights, fairy lights and candles.
