Brandenburg Launches Week to Celebrate Jewish Life Amid Rising Antisemitism

The initiative aims to promote tolerance and counteract the fear caused by increasing antisemitic incidents.

Brandenburg's 'Jüdisches Kaleidoskop' week includes workshops, readings, music, and tours to highlight Jewish culture.
The initiative responds to a rise in antisemitic crimes following recent geopolitical tensions involving Israel.
Commemorative events will honor victims of the Nazi pogrom on November 9, 1938, known as Kristallnacht.
State Secretary Friederike Haase expressed concern over Jewish citizens feeling unsafe displaying religious symbols.
The Brandenburg government, along with the Fachstelle Antisemitismus, is committed to combating antisemitism.
