Hundreds of thousands march through Berlin for the rights of queer people

“Only strong together – for democracy and diversity” – this was the motto of the Christopher Street Day demonstration on Saturday through Berlin. Despite moderate weather, several hundred thousand people came – and a star guest.more

Oranienburg is celebrating its second Pride this year. The community of lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgender and intersex people will demonstrate for their rights. After a demonstration, there will be a celebration on the Schlossplatz.

Last year, according to the organizers, there were between 500 and 800 participants.

A few weeks ago, the small right-wing extremist party Free Saxony called for a protest against the CSD in Bautzen. At the CSD in Frankfurt (Oder), however, the situation remained relaxed.
