Massive protests in Seesen: 450 mobilized against AfD citizen dialogue!
In Seesen, a small town in the Harz Mountains, an event organized by the “Alternative for Germany” (AfD) party was held yesterday, which caused noticeable unrest. The so-called “citizen dialogue” took place in the Jacobsonhaus, bringing together around 80 party supporters. But the mood was not only tense on the AfD side. At the same time, a protest was formed under the motto “Seesen against right-wing extremism – against the AfD's citizen dialogue”, which cast a clear opposing vote with around 450 participants. A clear sign from the population that shows that people in Seesen don't just want to accept what's going on.
The counter-event was anything but quiet. Various speeches and musical performances made it clear what they think of the AfD. The atmosphere was characterized by a festive mood that wanted to take a stand together against extremism. The police kept an eye on the situation and reported that it was largely trouble-free. The local police received support from the Hanover riot police and the Goslar police station to keep both events under control, but the overall situation remained calm.
Police presence and support
The presence of law enforcement officers was not only necessary out of caution, but also because of the tension that the AfD event can bring with it. According to the report from regionalheute.de, the events took place without any notable incidents. The strict security precautions taken by the police helped ensure that both gatherings remained peaceful, which visibly relaxed the organizers and participants of the counter-event.
“The organizers have shown a good hand,” said the Goslar police inspector, who assessed the events as entirely positive. The commitment of the citizens of Seesen to position themselves against right-wing extremist ideologies is important and shows a lively political consciousness in the city.
Overall, what happened in Seesen shows how important it is to actively stand up for your own values and beliefs. While the AfD had a modest 80 participants, the opponents shone with a strong voice of around 450 people. A clear sign that in Seesen, history is not only told, but also discussed in a lively manner. The echo of this day will resonate for a long time and will continue to shape the political climate in the region.
