On 14th march, from 10 a.m., there will be an anti-racist
neighbourhood-football-tournament at Böttgestr. 8 in
Berlin-Gesundbrunnen with a socia-cultural schedule.
We invite everyone who wants to join and live in a society
without any racism and exploitation. The topic of this event
will be the ongoing fight for freedom of the refugees in
Berlin and the stories of those people who live in lagers in
Gesundbrunnen and Wedding. We will show some movies, videos
and and talk to artists whose work, like exibithions and
music, is related to this topic. Open disscusion rounds will
instigate a direct dialogue between the refugee activists and
the people from the neighbourhood. The current situation in
the lagers and their isolation through racism and exploitation
from the society is the reason why the refugees can not
organize themselves and promote their struggle. There are
barley attempts to overcome this dependence caused by the
"help" of the governal charity organisations. Participation
roses only by having access to resources of our society. This
tournament is a counterexample to the old rules of the game
which does not talk to people in need or lets them say and
decied what they really need. We, the refugees, political
activists and the youth from the neighbourhood tried to
cooperate and make all the decisions toghether. We know that
some of us have got benefits that others do not have. So we
want to raise our voice to overcome those benefits and become
a unity which strenghtens all of us.
