About The Event

DANCE DEMONSTRATION AT RATHAUSMARKT LÜBECK WE will be dancing and demonstrating for an end of violence against girls, women and other FLINTA* in front of the town hall of Lübeck on the Rathausmarkt Lübeck on June 19, 2024 from 6:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. The 19th of June is the international day to end sexual violence in conflicts and we want to raise our voices for the victims of sexual violence everywhere. "According to the UN, a third of all women and girls are beaten or raped at some point in their lives. That is one billion women worldwide who are victims of violence. One Billion Rising is a worldwide movement that was launched in September 2012 by New York artist and feminist Eve Ensler. Since then, a billion women and men have been called on Valentine's Day to leave their homes, schools, businesses and workplaces and to jointly protest against violence against girls and women. (...) So leave your work, leave your school, interrupt the Day, rise for Revolution! Dance, drum and demand an end to the violence!" (Quote from OBR Berlin)
