Anti racism demonstration 17/10
On September 5th an extremist group called "Det Danske Folk" organized the largest far-right demonstration Denmark has seen since World War II. Approximately 1000 racists, fascists and nazis from all around the country gathered in Copenhagen to spread their hate in our neighborhoods and demand mass deportations of non-white minorities. Their call for "remigration", is nothing more than a rebranding of fascist thought, and many of the demonstrators felt safe enough to give the nazi salute. They are calling for a new demonstration on October 17th.
The extremist, far-right is on the rise all across Europe. In Denmark, this has been expressed mostly inside the parliament with mainstream parties (even self-proclaimed socialist parties) adopting the policies and language of the far-right, so they can cling on to power. Now, fascism is trying to set foot in our neighborhoods, too.
If you want to help show that this extremism is not welcome in Copenhagen, join the counter demonstration on 17th of October, 13.00 at Halmtorvet in Vesterbro.
