Härte gegen Punk / ERSTE ANTIFA GENERATION – In Halle, Potsdam und Ostberlin

In the organizer's words:

The attack by skinheads on a punk concert in the Zion Church in Berlin in 1987 revealed what many subcultural youths in the GDR already knew: the state with its anti-fascist doctrine had a neo-Nazi problem. This was not officially allowed to be true, and so right-wing extremist and xenophobic violence was played down and concealed by the government.

Left to their own devices, antifa groups were founded in various cities in 1988 and 1989. We talk to Jakob and René from Potsdam, Dietmar from Berlin and Torsten from Halle about the goals and conditions back then and ask ourselves what we can take away and reflect on from these experiences today.

As a special historical treat, a Super 8 film shot by the first Antifa group in Potsdam in 1988 will be shown that evening. There will also be a small special exhibition by and about the Potsdamers.
