5vor12 in Köln

/ cologne, protest, 5vor12

We went to another protest against right-wing parties and right-wing wannabes. There was some rain in the beginning but the weather became better later. There was an awful lot of people (which was good), so we went up a parking garage to take pictures from above.

The theme was "5 to 12. Let's get loud" and there was everything from music through percussion to simply noise.

It's good to see many people rise against the tendencies we see in politics today. I hope we are able to turn things around at the voting next month.

Sign saying Wir bleiben bunt

As they say in Cologne "Hätz statt Hetze" - "Heart above hate".
