This is my generation, baby / Talkthema: Warum wählen junge Menschen rechts?

In the organizer's words:

"Young, cool, right-wing extremist" was the headline of the ARD magazine Monitor on the voting behavior of young people in East Germany. What sounds exaggerated actually gives rise to the question: Why do young people vote on the right? Is TikTok alone to blame? Or is it growing up in times of multiple crises? Shouldn't young people in particular be interested in protecting democracy and therefore their future?
The generation talk THIS IS MY GENERATION enters the next round: Moderated by Sophia Spyropoulos (MDR) and co-hosted by Mika Schlegel (Jugendpresse Sachsen e.V.), Dr. Johannes Gemkow (University of Leipzig, research interests include social media, populism and youth) discusses with other experts from science and politics and a 10th grade class from Humboldtschule, Gymnasium der Stadt Leipzig. The drums of Aline Patschke (munterfel) will provide the musical beat for the discussion.

Free admission.
