Calendar

Under the motto "Science against Fascism - Responsibility of Science in Times of Fascist Danger", activities will take place nationwide in the week from 1 to 7 June. Teachers, students and staff at the HGB Leipzig are also taking part in the week of action with events. The confrontation with authoritarian, right-wing extremist, racist and discriminatory ideologies is seen as an important and legitimate part of teaching at the HGB. The events during the Action Week can create spaces for a reflective debate and thus send a signal in favour of democracy and the freedom of art and science and against the growing fascist threat in our country.

Programme at the HGB Leipzig:

Monday, 01.06.

19:00-21:30, Lichthof
New Slogans for New Situations
Jule Flierl, Katja Schwalenberg, Mei Bao

Expanding words: Based on a collection of international slogans, we will expand and reassemble words, contexts and solidarities: personal and solidary, concrete and intersectional, resistant and future-expanding, local and international, demanding and inspiring, cheeky, serious, accusatory, naive, snappy or poetic.

Bring your favourite slogans, song lyrics, memes and quotes. We will invent new slogans, put slogans on our tongues, paint slogans on posters and display them in the atrium of the HGB for the week. The material can then be used for various protest formats - for banners, chants or musical formats.
