Alcoholized and insulting: racist arrested in Wilmersdorf!

That night, on May 22, 2025, a 49-year-old man was arrested in Wilmersdorf after having racially insulted guests of a pub and called anti-constitutional slogans. According to the information of berlin.de , the incident occurred around 4:30 a.m. in a pub in Paulsborner Strasse.

The emergency services of police section 24 immediately received an alarm and could not arrest the alcoholic man, who despite the request of an employee of the pub to leave the restaurant, did not hold off the pub from his behavior. He continued to repeat his racist insults and called "Heil Hitler". This incident is now being further investigated by the police protection of the Berlin State Criminal Police Office.

racism in everyday life remains an urgent problem

In the past few weeks, further cases of racist insults have been recorded in Germany. A particularly explosive example occurred in Dresden, where a 43-year-old Indian woman was racially insulted by an unknown person during a tram ride. The incident was reported by the Dresden police department, which also entrusted the state protection with the investigation. According to evangelische-zeitung.de there was also an incident in Dresden-Backgast, in which a 38-year-old man with a loudspeaker spread and caused dangerous interventions in road traffic.

The increasing reports of discrimination, especially with regard to ethnic origin, racism and anti -Semitism, reflect a sad picture of the social mood. In 2023, the federal anti -discrimination agency (ADS) raised a high with around 10,800 reports. This can be seen as a result of increasing awareness of discrimination experiences. Statista reports that discrimination also often occurs in the form of condescending behavior or insulting statements. In this context, a total of 933 attacks were documented due to racist attitudes in 2023.

The challenges of racism and discrimination are therefore present everywhere in German society. According to a survey at the beginning of 2023, 16.2 percent of German xenophobic views. In addition, there are another 30.3 percent in the "gray area" of xenophobia. This data illustrates the need for educational measures and social education in order to act against such discriminatory attitudes.
