First CSD in Teltow-Fläming: Let it glitter! For queer visibility!
In Teltow-Fläming, a historical event is imminent: On July 12th, the district's first Christopher Street Day (CSD) is celebrated. Under the motto "Let it glitter!" the demonstration will begin at 1:00 p.m. at Luckenwalde train station and move through the city, with the aim of getting to the big summer party at the E-Werk in Luckenwalde at 3:00 p.m. It is a sign of visibility for queer people in a region who is often faced with queer hostility. Siegessäfe reports that the organizational team is not only for "glitter", but also for celebrations and the expression of necessary visibility.
The current political situation gives the activist a special reason for mobilization. The worrying incidents of violence against queer people are pointed out, such as the incidents in Bad Freienwalde and Brandenburg an der Havel. In order to ensure security during the event, a comprehensive security concept was developed, which was created in collaboration with experts for right -wing movements in Brandenburg. The support from the partnership for democracy Teltow-Fläming also strengthens this initiative and shows that the region is together.
diverse program and creative actors
Visitors can look forward to a varied program. A special highlight is the musical diversity: from punk to hip hop to hit, live music is played on two stages. Artists like Faravaz and Lena Stoehr factor appear and bring the city to tremor with their performances. The E-Werk Luckenwalde organizes workshops, karaoke and DJ dancing, while information stands of various queer associations, including the lesbian and gay association in Germany, Landesverband Berlin-Brandenburg e. V., ready. There are also rooms for the little ones from the KLAB youth club. The official website of the district of Teltow-Fläming emphasizes that this event also has exciting offers for children.
The rainbow flag, which was raised in June 2025 in front of the district house, not only symbolizes the diversity of the region, but also sets a clear sign against discrimination. Willi, a member of the organization team, is certain that such symbols give important impulses for future generations. Deutschlandfunk Kultur indicates that the CSD traditionally starts the pride season in June and shows a long-term struggle for equal rights and visibility of the LGBTQI*community.
A call to solidarity
In view of the current threats to queer rights, which manifest itself in a significant increase in queer -anti -punitive crimes, the CSD becomes an important symbol of solidarity. Historically, the CSD is in a long tradition of fighting against discrimination, which already began in the Empire. The following generations are required not only to celebrate, but also to put pressure on politics. The CSD in Teltow-Fläming is intended to encourage citizens to think about queer life in their region and to actively position themselves against queer hostility.
The organization team calls for broad support and wishes that many people from surrounding places will come to demonstration in order to set a strong sign of diversity and intolerance.
