Stadttour Köln: un_unterbrochen. Sprechen über rechte Gewalt.

In the organizer's words:

Where in Cologne are anti-Semitic, racist and National Socialist ideas inscribed in the urban space? Where is it visible and where is it buried under many layers and (made) invisible? During the city walk, experts will use these questions to talk about the history and current acts of violence and assaults in connection with the stations visited in order to expand the collective memory with places and names. The tour is intended to make it clear that the EINZELTÄTER film trilogy can only provide a small insight and that so many more names need to be mentioned, more survivors need to be heard and more so-called individual acts need to be adequately dealt with.

Speakers:

• Bengü Kocatürk-Schuster (Initiative Herkesin Meydanı - Space for All)
• Fatma C. (victim of the racist bomb attack in Platenstraße in 1992)
• Hans-Peter Killguss (NS DOK Cologne)
• Daniel Vymyslicky (Reporting office for anti-Semitic incidents)
• Martin Rapp (Initiative Tatort Porz)

Pssst! In addition to the city tour, as part of the event series "un_unterbrochen. Talking about right-wing violence", the documentary film trilogy EINZELTÄTER: München, Hanau, Halle will be shown in Mülheim's Raum für Alle and a panel discussion with experts and those affected will be held in the Rautenstrauch-Joest-Museum.

Note on the city tour

The city tour will take us to four places in Cologne where right-wing violence has left (in)visible traces. There we want to learn more about these acts and the dynamics behind them, as well as talk about the consequences for those directly and indirectly affected.

We will meet on Saturday, 3.5.2025 from 11:30 am at Lenauplatz in Cologne-Ehrenfeld to start together at 12:00 pm to the first station. At Lenauplatz, all participants will receive headphones so that they can follow the speakers at each station.

The routes between the stations are covered independently. We recommend using a bicycle or public transportation. The route is planned so that both are possible. We provide rickshaw seats and wheelchair rickshaw seats for people who are unable to ride a bike due to an impairment or disability. These can be booked free of charge during ticketing, as long as there are still places available.

The routes between the individual stations are not part of the event and are covered by the participants on their own responsibility, at their own risk and by a route chosen by each participant. The Sommerblut-Kulturfestival, the Dokomotive platform and VARIANTE exclude liability for the distances traveled between the stations.

Turkish-German interpretation will be provided during the city tour.

Please contact Katharina(katharina.wuerzberg@sommerblut.de) if you have any concerns or questions about accessibility.
