…celebrate together and fight together! Stop the new asylum law!
Saturday, Oct 3, Café Stil-Bruch, 7 p.m. All refugees are welcome!
We invite all refugees and all people who already live here since a longer time to our second welcome2wuppertal evening at Café Stil-Bruch at Ölberg on Saturday. As every first Saturday’s night of each month we want to to cook and eat together, make music and listen to it and of course we want to talk. This time we have a special reason to really invite you all: Our goal is to get to know better, not only to be able to celebrate but also to fight together. The proposed tightening of the asylum law means a quick end of a «short summer of welcome» and for many refugees who already live with us and for those who just have been welcomed at the stations, the new law will have fateful consequences.
Facing the new law, solidarity must get a different quality now. This Saturday we want to create conditions for this by informing about the law and by talking about our options to deal with its consequences.
Before the new asylum law will enter into force, Germany wishes to celebrate itself at the „Day of German Unity“ on October 3 – just with the at most cynical slogan «overcoming borders». As cynical as this slogan is – it offers a chance to celebrate the right ones instead of politicians of foreclosure: This 3rd of October we should celebrate those who actually overcame borders – in real, during their flight or mentally on their way to the stations, the accommodations and on the streets. This we will do with a series of events by and for refugees.
Our w2wtal evening at Café Stil-Bruch is one of three self-organized appointments in Wuppertal on Saturday, which should be a further step to overcome borders together: This time such ones which still prevent joint actions.
From 2 p.m.: «Wuppertal is for everyone!» – Some people from Wuppertal organize a family afternoon with music, food and children’s games in and around Café ADA (Wiesenstraße 6, Wuppertal-Elberfeld)
