Nationwide demos: Together against hatred and incitement on November 3rd!
Numerous demonstrations against right-wing extremism, hatred and anti-Semitism are scheduled for November 3, 2025 in Germany. These protests are not only a reaction to the increasing right-wing trends, but also part of a broad movement that is committed to democracy, tolerance and peaceful coexistence news.de reported. Large-scale demos as well as workshops, readings and discussions are planned in various federal states in order to counteract the growing right-wing extremism.
The movement has gained momentum since the beginning of 2023, with millions of people in Germany actively campaigning against the AfD and its possible collaborations with established parties. [rnd.de].

The protests are also supported by online events, including the new meeting of the Bremen local group today with the title “AfD ban now!”. These digital formats provide a platform for people who want to participate from different locations without having to travel.
Political backgrounds
The protests are in the context of a political debate that is being observed not only by the demonstrators, but also by politicians and scientists. The AfD is seen by many as a threat to democracy. In various cities such as Riesa and Hamburg, there have even been conflicts between protesters and the police in the past, which underlines the urgency of the issue, as Wikipedia notes.
The protest movement is also accompanied by criticism of some parties' migration policy plans, which are interpreted as paving the way for a right-wing trend. Similar mobilization is being observed in Austria, particularly against the Freedom Party of Austria, demonstrating the cross-border dimension of the fight against right-wing extremism. The importance of these protests is emphasized by protest researcher Lisa Bogerts, who classifies them as a third wave of pro-democratic protests.
The coming weeks will show how the protests will develop. In view of the increased mobilization against right-wing tendencies in Germany, those responsible are called upon to take citizens' concerns seriously and to promote dialogue.
