A quarter-million protest in Berlin against the return of fascism


Nearly 250,000 people demonstrated Saturday in Berlin against racism, the far-right Alternative for Germany’s witch-hunting of immigrants, and the reactionary policies of the grand coalition government. Organized around the central slogan “#indivisible—solidarity instead of exclusion,” the protest was one of the largest in recent German history. The protest was the culmination of a growing mobilization against the grand coalition government of the Christian Democrats and Social Democrats, which is implementing the xenophobic and right-wing extremist positions of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) in all major policy areas.
