Overview of the day of action against the PKK ban in Germany

On Saturday the decentralized day of action against the PKK ban in Germany will take place. The initiative "Our Utopia against your Repression" and the umbrella organization KON-MED have published an overview with information about the places and times.

On Saturday, November 21, actions will be held across Germany to call for an end to the ban of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in Germany, which is now 27 years long. The PKK ban in Germany will mark its 27th anniversary on 26 November.

The nationwide initiative "Our Utopia against your Repression" came to the public a few weeks ago with an eponymous appeal to the public, which contains the idea of joint struggles for an anti-racist, anti-capitalist, feminist, ecological and democratic society and is supported by numerous political groups. While a large demonstration had been planned in Cologne for Saturday, the organisers decided to hold a day of action due to increasing numbers of new corona infections and the resulting stricter rules in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
