Herbert Grönemeyer inspires at the CSD at the Brandenburg Gate

The Christopher Street Day (CSD) in Berlin has once again shown impressively how important solidarity and social diversity are. Herbert Grönemeyer, one of the most famous voices in Germany, appeared at the Brandenburg Gate and clearly showed that the celebrations go far beyond music and dance.

A call to defend democracy

In his moving speech, Grönemeyer spoke about the importance of the gay movement for society. He emphasized that this movement not only made the world more colored, but also significantly influenced our thinking and feeling. "The movement has opened us brain and heart," says the singer, who describes his youth as a "old hetero-boomer" in a time of the rebellion. In this context, he takes a critical look at the current global challenges and the recovering dictatorial forces that threaten the freedoms.

celebration of the diversity despite rain

Although the weather did not play along and the celebrations accompanied the celebrations, the audience at the Brandenburg Gate did not spoil the good mood. Grönemeyer immediately sparked a positive atmosphere with his first song "fear -free". The text is about the power of coexistence and the meaning of celebrating life - aspects that are central to an event like the CSD. The spectators sang enthusiastically, and the umbrella of the guests became symbols of the positive energy that could be experienced on this day.

a strong plea for equality

Grönemeyer called for an urgent change in Article 3 in the Basic Law to strengthen protection against discrimination based on sexual and gender identity. "It has to be done immediately, clearly and jagged," the musician called and thus attracted great applause from those present. He made it clear that the past achievements are precious and must be defended.

colorful future - celebrate together

Grönemeyer ended his appearance with one of his best -known hits "man", who was sung intensely by the fans. The connection between the music and the message of the CSD was obvious and was reinforced by the large number of people who showed their support for the queer community with joy and determination.

conclusion: a moment of joy together

The event was not only a moment of the celebration, but also a sign of unity for the rights of the LGBTIQ+community. While Herbert Grönemeyer talked about "looking outside the box" and demanding the discourse, it became clear that the CSD is a place in which respect and acceptance are redefined. This energy, combined with the joint joy of music, gives hope that the future will remain colorful - despite all the challenges.
