Musicians are sending a clear message against the right: 500,000 free student newspapers. The youth campaign Kein Bock Auf Nazis will soon print 500,000 student newspapers, which will be distributed for free at concerts, schools, and youth centers across Germany starting in January. In the newspaper, Die Toten Hosen, Die Ärzte, Beatsteaks, ZSK, Fettes Brot, KIZ, Casper, and other artists make a strong statement against neo-Nazis and racism. In addition to information about the neo-Nazi scene, the focus of the new issue is on sit-ins against right-wing marches. Kein Bock Auf Nazis calls for mass blockades to prevent the largest neo-Nazi march in Europe in Dresden again next year.
"We consider neo-Nazis to be stupid, dangerous, and ugly! That’s why we support every anti-fascist protest, every blockade, every action that stands against the right-wing madness," say the Beatsteaks about their motivation to support the campaign. Joshi from ZSK states: "With the student newspapers, we want to encourage people not to look away, but to actively stand in the way of the Nazis. We stand by this: preventing neo-Nazi marches is damn well our right and our duty."
Bands, fans, and organizers - everyone can help distribute the newspaper. The newspaper can be ordered in packages of 250 for the cost of postage starting now: http://keinbockaufnazis.de/bestellung. The packages will be shipped at the beginning of January. Larger quantities than 250 copies are possible upon email request to kban@apabiz.de.
Kein Bock auf Nazis is a volunteer project that was started in 2006 by the band ZSK. With the help of donations, 250,000 free DVDs and more than one million student newspapers have already been distributed nationwide in recent years.
