“Queer Berlin – JEMEINSAM” – so the Motto of the 41. Berlin’s Christopher Street Day in 2019. The CSD Forum erntetet a lot of Häme, on our queer mirror-Facebook-page. “Sounds as if someone at Scrabble – hell! – 100 points wanted to come! This Motto can be(n)/a woman drinking is not nice!”, about one User wrote. And another commented: “How embarrassing. Anita then Kupsch on or Harald Juhnke?”
others pointed out that in the year 2019, the Stonewall uprising celebrates a round anniversary – and the Motto of this political Dimension can hardly do justice to. 50 years ago, gay and transgender people staged a protest in New York’s Christopher Street after a police RAID in the queer bar “Stonewall Inn” for the first time massively against these raids: the birth of the modern homosexual emancipation movement, of which the CSD is reminiscent in his name.
A decision of the CSD forum after a long discussion
After a long discussion, the Berlin CSD Forum decided on Wednesday evening with a two-thirds majority, the Motto is once again up for discussion. For CSD spokeswoman Karina Thinius this is “a normal procedure”. A large, internal dispute or even a quarrel of the CSD Alliance did not exist.
You have rather, the CSD Board of Directors, “addressed the Community momentum”: “We are committed to the open discussion in the Forum, to demonstrate with a Motto, with as many participants as possible can identify with.“
It’s supposed to be “timely” new
How exactly is the motto of determination, the process goes now, right now, is still open. It is clear, however: anyone Who would like to contribute about the naming, the design of the Berlin Gay Pride, is cordially invited. For example, in the three working groups to develop the substantive requirements on a regional, national and international level. Those interested can sign up via e-Mail.
In any case, in a timely manner to be voted “” once again about the slogan, they say. The election should then stand in the new proposals, but also the old. All in theory, so even the “Jemeinsam could be chosen”Motto.
