Democracy event in Rostock: Faces against the right on October 27th!
When the light of culture shines on the streets of Rostock, something very special often happens. On Monday, October 27, 2025, Anne Manke and Kai Mattern will be guests at the Rostock City Library, located at Kröpeliner Straße 82. From 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. there will be an event by the photography initiative “Faces Against the Right,” which will focus on the commitment to democracy, openness and respect. The Hanseatic and university city of Rostock supports this event and thus shows its commitment to diversity and participation.
The “Faces Against the Right” project aims to make attitudes visible. It is not just a simple exhibition, but rather a gallery of messages that appeals to people to work for a colorful and respectful society. Portraits are created of individuals who fight for these values. A shoot that only takes a few minutes will certainly inspire and encourage many.
Diversity in the city library
The project's exciting autumn tour covers 19 German cities, which shows how high the interest in such campaigns is. Participants are cordially invited to wear neutral or monochrome clothing - as logos and slogans are highly undesirable here. If you want, you can register online, but it is not absolutely necessary to take part in the event. For further information on this, it is worth visiting the Faces Against Right website, which provides detailed insights and all the necessary information here.
The importance of such initiatives cannot be underestimated. At a time when values such as respect and openness are often under scrutiny, events like this offer a platform to actively advocate for democracy. This is also supported by the organization “Democracy Life!” that pursues innovative approaches to promote democracy and strengthen social cohesion. On their website, those interested can find a wealth of information about the topic and background information that is essential for understanding current social developments here.
In a world that is often polarized, such projects offer a welcome opportunity to promote dialogue and set an example for an open society. The joint portraits are not only intended to document, but also to encourage people to become part of this important movement themselves. “Faces Against the Right” is more than just a name – it is an invitation to show up and stand up for your beliefs.
Be there when Rostock sets an example for diversity and respect and let us continue to promote the exchange about democracy and living together!
