We remember the right-wing terrorist attack on the synagogue in Halle 2019 and on the Kiez kebab in this episode. The guest is Ismet Tekin, a survivor of the attack and co-owner of Café TEKIEZ, which is the name of the former Kiez-Döner today. Also guests are Jelle and Nele from the solo-group TEKIEZ. Among other things, the conversation is about trust and mutual empowerment processes, networks of solidarity, and at the same time the recognition of different affectednesses and also political interpretations.
About the event
On Yom Kippur 2019, the highest Jewish holiday, a right-wing terrorist attempted to murder those inside the synagogue in Halle/Saale; after failing to gain entry to the building, he killed passerby Jana Lange outside the building and, shortly thereafter, guest Kevin Schwarze at the Kiez-Döner snack bar.
