ARNE SEMSROTT // "Machtübernahme: was passiert, wenn Rechtsextreme regieren"

In the organizer's words:

The AfD at 30 percent, the firewall falls, Björn Höcke becomes Interior Minister. And now?

Journalist and activist Arne Semsrott brings the current political situation to the stage in a satirical-activist evening. He demonstrates what the anti-democratic right in power is up to and what we can do when it is actually already too late.

In his new non-fiction book "Machtübernahme", he speaks unfiltered and astutely about the immediate threat of right-wing extremism to democracy in Germany. Schools, tax offices, ministries, public broadcasting and the police form the democratic foundation of our society - but what happens when they fall? And how can the constitution and separation of powers be defended when right-wingers start to restructure the state in order to consolidate their power in the long term?

And what does Jens Spahn actually have to do with it?

On his new tour, Semsrott shows in an impressive and entertaining way what means civil society, the media, trade unions, civil servants, the judiciary and companies can use to counter a right-wing takeover - and why freeing prisoners is a first step in the right direction.
