Protest against extremely right -wing fraternities in Mainz: Stay vigilant!

The city of Mainz is faced with a significant protest next Saturday, August 3, which is organized by the "Campaign Center for Closing Rheinhessen". The rally takes place at 11 a.m. in Stahlbergstrasse, the seat of the Germania Halle fraternity in Mainz. This time the protest takes place according to the recent cancellation of the annual foundation festival of the fraternity, which could not take place as planned due to massive resistance.

root of resistance

The fraternity Germania Halle zu Mainz has attracted attention in the past because of its ethnic, racist and sexist ideologies. This has led to a strong mobilization of citizens who want to set a clear sign against extremely right -wing freedom in their city. The organizers of the protest intend to prevent the so -called "fascists" from building structures in Mainz, since the city has not yet been known as a stronghold for right -wing ideologies.

The influence of the fraternity on society

The fraternity is often associated with the young alternative (yes), which underlines the concerns about political influence. The organizers of the protest indicate that the continued existence of such groups must be observed in order to protect society from spreading extremist views. "If we want Mainz to stay that way, we have to remain vigilant," said the words of the activists.

success of the Antifa movement

The successful closure of the "Center Rheinhessen" at the beginning of the year is evaluated as evidence that anti -fascist work can have positive effects. The results of the European elections, in which the AfD in Mainz is weak, are also an indication that resistance to extremely right views has an effect. The situational and structural challenges that were created without a fixed center for right -wing activities have made the AfD election campaign significantly more difficult.

upcoming mobilization and their importance

The planned rally represents a further step towards strengthening civil society. The local initiatives clearly show that many citizens are committed to the spread of extremist ideologies and defend the social values of the community. At a time when social cohesion is put to the test, it is crucial that people are actively involved in making a sign of solidarity and tolerance.
