🏳️ Anti-fascist solidarity in Düsseldorf, NRW

🗓January 19, starts at 14:30
📍Linkes Zentrum Düsseldorf, Corneliusstraße 108, 40215

We invite you to an event dedicated to supporting Russian anti-fascists and left-wing activists, as well as strengthening international solidarity.

On January 19, 2009, Stanislav Markelov, a human rights activist and lawyer, and Anastasia Baburova, a journalist and anarchist, were murdered in cold blood in Moscow. This tragic day has become a symbol of remembrance and resistance around the world.

Today, the Russian authorities are waging aggressive military operations and building an authoritarian right-wing dictatorship, sponsoring far-right organizations like the "Russian Community" and "Northern Man". At the same time, they persecute those who stand for freedom, equality and justice. Left activists, anarchists and communists are imprisoned, tortured, humiliated and deprived of basic rights.

We are holding this event not only to express solidarity with prisoners of conscience, but also to discuss how leftists in the EU can participate in the fight against the Putin regime for radical socialist changes here and now.

The program of the event:

✔️Discussion of the current political situation in Russia and the situation of political prisoners;

✔️Stories about the fates of left activists in prison;

✔️Speech by former political prisoners who will share their personal experiences of struggle;

✔️Reading letters from anti-fascists from prisons;

✔️The opportunity to write a letter of support to prisoners of conscience;

✔️Discussion of the strategy of the left in the EU today.

Your participation is important! Together we can resist injustice, support those who have ended up in prison for their beliefs, and strengthen the international anti-fascist and socialist movement.

Join us! Together we are strong!
