(In Danish below)

The 6th of February there is an action day for Pegida in all of Europe, and the Danish gathering of Pegida supporters, called „For Frihed“ (For Freedom) is as usual calling for a „peaceful walk“ from Axeltorv. It now looks more like a hate-filled racist meet-up where among others Gavin Bobby, who according to Pegida themselves, have „been part of stopping many planned mosque constructions in England“ wants to hold a speech. Therefore the network No Pegida is calling for a demonstration from Blågårds Plads to directly show Pegida that we do not accept their racist agenda in Copenhagen or any other place and that we do not accept their agitation for even more hatred towards Muslims and migrants.

Pegida is constantly trying to make their racist agenda widely accepted by seeming to be a group of „concerned citizens“ who are only interested in freedom. At their meetings there are fur-wearing citizens of Hellerup with placards suggesting that all Muslims are terrorists and known Nazis wearing mouthguards, all together in an uncool alliance. At Pegidas last event there were Nazis from Party of the Danes (Danskernes Parti), the Danish National Front (Danskernes Nationale Front), Danish Defence League and Blood and Honour. It is clear that Pegida are only interested in freedom for the few. We want to show an alternative to the split in society between cultural, religious and ethnic groups which Pegida is pushing for, and make it clear that everyone has a right to free expression in our society.

We’ll be very happy to see you all so grab a hold of your friends, family, comrades and colleagues and join up to show that Copenhagen is and remains multicultural!

***Time for the demo will come later***

——————–

Den 6. februar er aktionsdag for Pegida i hele Europa, og den danske samling af Pegida-tilhængere, organiseret under navnet For Frihed, indkalder som sædvanligt til en ”fredelig vandring” fra Axeltorv. Det ligner nu mere et hadfyldt racist-træf, hvor blandt andet Lars Hedegaard fra Trykkefrihedsselskabet og Gavin Bobby, der ifølge Pegidas eget udsagn har ”medvirket (mere end) til at sætte stolen for døren for mange planlagte mosque byggerier i England”, vil holde tale. Derfor indkalder netværket No Pegida til demonstration fra Blågårds Plads for direkte at vise Pegida, at vi ikke accepterer deres racistiske dagsorden i København eller nogen andre steder, og at vi ikke finder os i deres opildnen til yderligere had mod muslimer og indvandrere.

Pegida forsøger stadig gøre deres racistiske dagsorden bredt accepteret ved at fremstå som en gruppe ”bekymrede borgere”, der bare går ind for frihed. Til deres arrangementer går pelsklædte Hellerupborgere med skilte, der antyder at alle muslimer er terrorister, og velkendte nazister med tandbeskyttere dog sammen i en uskøn alliance. Til Pegidas sidste arrangement var nazister fra Danskernes Parti, Danmarks Nationale Front, Danish Defence League og Blood and Honour mødt op. Det står klart, at Pegida kun går ind for frihed for de få. Vi vil vise et alternativ til splittelsen af samfundet mellem kulturelle, religiøse og etniske grupper, som Pegida fremskynder, og sammen gøre det klart, at alle har ret til at udtrykke sig frit i vores samfund.

Vi glæder os til at se jer allesammen, så grib venner, familie, kammerater og kolleger, og vær med til at vise at København er og forbliver Mangfoldig!
