One filming witness
" We were told we could continue demonstrating at #Westerpark and would be dropped off there. That was a lie. We were dropped off at a very remote truck car park. The police disappeared immediately. We didn't know what to do and how we would get away so we walked around a bit looking and thinking. Suddenly, all police vans pulled up and cops got out and snatched people and beat them up. For no reason and very randomly. "

Freedom for the One Who Thinks Differently
An open letter from a group of Jewish artists, writers, and scholars in Germany
"Bans on demonstrations and their violent enforcement only provoke and escalate violence. We also contend that the perceived threat of such assemblies grossly inverts the actual threat to Jewish life in Germany, where, according to the federal police, the “vast majority” of anti-Semitic crimes—around 84 percent—are committed by the German far right. If this is an attempt to atone for German history, its effect is to risk repeating it."
