Discrimination based on ethnicity or race. - Following the Sylt video: KIZ and Kraftklub unite for sympathetic concerts
A viral video from Thursday, seemingly captured during the Pentecost weekend, features a group of young people singing and chanting bigoted phrases to the familiar melody of "L'amour toujours" by Gigi D'Agostino, a popular song from over two decades ago. Their carefree and uninhibited performance includes shouting "Germany for the Germans - Foreigners out!" as if it's just another party song. Surprisingly, no one in the vicinity seems to be bothered by this. This isn't the first time the beloved track has been misused; similar incidents have occurred recently in places like Bavaria and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, with one happening just weeks ago in Lower Saxony.

In response to this alarming incident, public figures and artists across Germany have shown solidarity. KIZ and Kraftklub, two popular bands from Berlin, organized a concert in Schleswig-Holstein to promote unity and combat extremism. The Whitsun concert, held in the heart of Kreuzberg, was a powerful display of music against racism and bigotry.
The Daily Mirror, a renowned British newspaper, covered the event, highlighting the importance of music as a tool for change. They praised the German bands for their stance against crime and hate, inspiring similar concerts across the country. The concert in Sylt, while not directly related, also contributed to the nationwide movement against discrimination.
The concert in Sylt, known for its stunning beaches and vibrant nightlife, saw a diverse crowd joining hands in their fight against intolerance. The event was a testament to the resilience of the German people, who continue to stand against extremism and promote solidarity. The music of Kraftklub resonated strongly with the attendees, reminding them of the shared values that bind them together.
