Peace prayer in Dresden: solidarity against violence and agitation!
Peace prayer in Dresden: solidarity against violence and agitation!
In the past few days, the city of Dresden has paid special attention to peace and social cohesion in the face of growing tensions and violent attacks on migrants. On Tuesday evening at 6:30 p.m., the community of the Ascension Church in Dresden-Leuben invites you to a prayer of peace. The aim is to promote "peaceful and strong coexistence" and at the same time decide to reject mood against migrants. Dieses Gebet wird in einer Zeit angesetzt, die von einem überstürzten Vorfall an einer Straßenbahnhaltestelle geprägt ist, bei dem zwei 18-Jährige mit Bierflaschen verletzt wurden, was die Gemüter in der Stadt zusätzlich erhitzt hat, wie MDR reported.The events took dramatic twists when two men with Tunisian citizenship were identified and arrested as suspects. The investigators found their arrest a music box that belonged to the injured young people. An investigation process is currently underway due to assault and theft. These events fall into a time when the right -wing extremist party "Free Saxony" calls for a demonstration and demands the return of "criminal migrants".
Peace prayer and demonstrations
On Monday evening, numerous people also took to the streets in Dresden and the surrounding area to take part in the so -called "Monday walks". In Sebnitz, for example, around 450 demonstrators walked peacefully through the city. This demonstration was organized by the small town, right -wing extremist party "Freie Sachsen". The demands of the protesting ranges up to an immediate border protection and an end of the asylum flood, as Antenne Saxony reports. At the same time, a prayer of peace took place in the Peter Pauls Church in Sebnitz, in which the peaceful coexistence was advertised. There, the non -party Mayor Ronald Kretzschmar also spoke to the guests.
The acts of violence that have been piling up recently are not only isolated cases. At the end of July, four masked men were identified who had attacked refugee accommodation in Sebnitz. Afghan residents were brutally attacked, and a 20-year-old German was suspected. The investigation continues to identify further participants.
radicalization and social cohesion
In this context, the increasing radicalization in society cannot be ignored. These phenomena are not new, but find fertile soil in times of controversial migration debates. As the Federal Center for Political Education, radical currents such as right-wing extremism and anti-Semitism are social challenges. They manifest themselves in racially motivated attacks on refugees and an increasing encouragement for right -wing extremist movements.
This radicalization often leads to intolerance and the foreclosure of different groups in society. Migrants in particular have seen themselves more than "strangers" and experience discrimination since September 11, 2001, which promotes retreats and increased acceptance of extremist positions.
The current developments in Dresden are therefore not only a local matter, but also reflect a broader phenomenon that affects all of Germany. The call to more civil courage and political educational programs that tackle the causes of radicalization is more urgent than ever. During this restless time, prayers of peace and the dialogue between the citizens are of crucial importance in order to pave the way to a more harmonious mutual with each other
