In the organizer's words:
RAGE AGAINST ABSCHIEBUNG is the largest regular anti-racist festival in southern Germany, organized by the Bavarian Refugee Council. The proceeds and donations go directly to concrete refugee work.
Under the motto "smash the card, cash the money!", this year's organizers want to draw attention to the systematic exclusion of refugees - including through the payment card - and counter it with practical solidarity.
RAGE AGAINST DEPORTATION is taking place in Munich for the 23rd time this year.
The idea:
The idea for the first RAGE AGAINST DEPORTATION festival was born in 1996, when the Prager Straße asylum work group urgently needed money to intervene in the event of a dramatic deportation. The first Rage was therefore conceived as a one-off charity festival. In 1999, however, the Bavarian Refugee Council resurrected the festival and turned it into the largest regular anti-racist band festival in southern Germany.
Since then, we have regularly tried to address the issues with our festival: The European deportation machinery, Fortress Europe, the perfidious isolationist policy, the exclusion of refugees, migrants and illegalized people and everyday racism to the public.
Of course, we also want to generate as much money as possible for our work. Solidarity with refugees is uncomfortable! Our work must therefore be as independent as possible. All of our guest bands therefore waive their fees and our helpers also work on a voluntary basis. The profit from the proceeds of the RAGE AGAINST ABSCHIEBUNG festivals has become an important financial basis for our work over the years.
The purpose:
At previous festivals, an average of around 700 paying guests ensured proceeds of around 5,000 euros each, which went directly to refugee work. In addition, political campaigns such as airport demos, seminars on refugee issues and a march to Wolfratshausen (home of the former Minister President) usually take place around the festival. Through targeted press and public relations work, we can also draw attention to the work and issues of the Bavarian Refugee Council.
