Oranienburg CSD March Calls for Rural Queer Visibility

The march carries the motto “Sicher leben – sichtbar lieben” in a year marked by disruption attempts from right-wing extremists.

Overview

  • Organizers set a 13:00 start for a demonstration route through Oranienburg.
  • Candy Boldt-Händel reported 500 to 1,500 registered participants for the event.
  • The Oranienburg gathering seeks greater visibility for queer people in rural areas and underscores the scarcity of local safe spaces.
  • Reports note ongoing discrimination in schools, which organizers cite as a reason for continued public demonstrations.
  • The Oranienburg event forms part of a regional CSD series scheduled to conclude in Cottbus on October 25.
