The 10th of May was the yearly herrentag, and because of this about 45 people meet up for a anti-herrentag sponti in Friedrichshein. We circled around Boxie for about half an hour. Flyers where handed out to general bystanders and flyers directed to disturbing cis- men aswell. Feminist slogans were shouted, graffiti was painted and sexist shit we encountered was dealt with as a collective. And we, a group of 3 people, participating in the sponti, had a lot of fun.
Usually for a lot of people, mainly FLTIQ* this day means either bracing your self, moving through the city strategically or staying indoors. The reality of the possible scenario of being touched, shouted at and possibly beaten, is a task left for the targeted, to individually solve.
If the essence of herrentag really was about being a parent it would have expressed itself very differently. This day is about pissing territory. It’s no coincidence that so many nazis like this shit – it goes hand in hand with their values. Its a worship of masculinity, and to the unspoken, organized and through every organ of this society, ever lasting solidarity between cis men and conservative, capitalist values in general.
This year, for a short while, before the cops showed up (3 vans storming out of their cars) and people dissolved, we owned the streets!
