#NSU-watch

Die rassistische Mordserie des »#Nationalsozia­listischen_Untergrunds« (#NSU) markiert eine Zäsur in der bundesrepublikanischen Ge­schichte. Die Taten des NSU, sein Netzwerk und die Rolle der Behörden sind noch lange nicht aufgeklärt.

NSU-Watch wird von einem Bündnis aus rund einem Dutzend antifaschistischer und antirassistischer Gruppen und Einzelpersonen aus dem ganzen Bundesgebiet getragen, die seit über einem Jahrzehnt zum Themenkomplex arbeiten.

Der Kern der momentanen Arbeit von NSU-watch ist die Beobachtung des Strafprozesses am Oberlandesgericht in München. Wir sind an jedem Verhandlungstag im Gerichtssaal dabei, berichten über Twitter (@nsuwatch) und erstellen detaillierte Protokolle.

Neben den Protokollen der Verhandlungstage ist die Vermittlung von Wissen über Neonazis und den NSU zentrale Aufgabe unserer Arbeit. NSU-watch als Projekt von antifaschistischen und antirassistischen (Recherche-)Gruppen hat Zugang zu umfangreichem Wissen über die neonazistische Szene und die im NSU involvierten Strukturen. Wir vernetzen kompetente antifaschistische Projekte und Einzelpersonen – auch mit Anwält_innen der Nebenklage – und erarbeiten gemeinsame Einschätzungen und Expertisen.

Building an anti-fascist culture post-Brexit

A vast amount has already been said about ‘Brexit’ and the general climate of nationalism and xenophobia in which the vote took place. We want to concentrate on where we can go from here. Between rising fascism on the one hand, and despair on the other, we think it’s essential we build a culture of anti-fascism based on solidarity and autonomy. Solidarity here means taking action to support each other against those who seek to impose their authoritarian and racist ideal of a uniform society. Autonomy means unlearning our habit of looking to leaders for solutions, and taking the initiative to organise for ourselves.

Why Amnesty Has Launched an Emergency Campaign on Racism

Of course, bigotry existed before this referendum, but undeniably the campaign was marked by divisive, toxic rhetoric as well as a failure from political leaders to condemn it and it seems clear that we are now reaping the referendum rhetoric whirlwind.

Ask your local council to stand against hate

Violence. Vandalism. Hate speech. Racist slogans on t-shirts. In the last few days, reports of hate crimes in the UK have increased. Fuelled by years of hostile rhetoric, coupled with divisive campaigns, we are now seeing racism and xenophobia on the rise on our streets and in our communities.

After ‘Brexit’ Vote, Immigrants Feel a Town Turn Against Them

BOSTON, England — A few days after Britain voted to leave the European Union, Monika Baginski was in a supermarket, chatting with a friend on the phone in her native Polish, when a man followed her down the aisle. “You foreigner,” Ms. Baginski recalled him saying. “You’ll be out soon.”

Britain’s Brexit Hate Crime Problem

This weekend a silent march and vigil was held in the town of Harlow, Essex to commemorate Arkadiusz Jozwik. The 40-year-old Polish man, who had lived in the UK for four years, was attacked with a friend a week earlier in the town and died of head injuries.

How foreigners became the convenient scapegoat of the referendum campaign

The Brexit campaign was never really about the EU or even immigration. It was about foreigners. Foreigners became a scapegoat for all the things that are not working properly – including in the NHS and in schools. But the government could not have confronted this use of xenophobia, writes Rodney Barker. Doing so would be to admit that these failures were not because of immigration but because of its own policies.

Racism, Crisis, Brexit

This article offers a conjunctural analysis of the financial and political crisis within which Brexit occurred with a specific attentiveness to race and racism. Brexit and its aftermath have been overdetermined by racism, including racist violence. We suggest that the Leave campaign secured its victory by bringing together two contradictory but inter-locking visions. The first comprises an imperial longing to restore Britain’s place in the world as primus inter pares that occludes any coming to terms with the corrosive legacies of colonial conquest and racist subjugation. The second takes the form of an insular, Powellite narrative of island retreat from a “globalizing” world, one that is no longer recognizably “British”. Further, the article argues that an invisible driver of the Brexit vote and its racist aftermath has been a politicization of Englishness. We conclude by outlining some resources of hope that could potentially help to negotiate the current emergency.
