Migrantifa demonstrates against racist security measures in Berlin outdoor pools
Security in Berlin's outdoor pools is currently the focus of the public. After several mass brawls and attacks, the police have announced that they are increasingly presenting presence. Especially in Kreuzberg, however, the security measures have met with criticism.
On Sunday, about 150 people gathered in front of the Prinzenbad to demonstrate against the new security measures. The group, which describes itself as a "migrantifa", calls for "less violence in outdoor pools and outdoor pools for everyone". Instead of increased police presence, ID card checks and more security personnel on the edge of the pool, you call for "more personnel, more wages, more all-gend toilets and more offers for steam drilling". The demonstrators describe the security discussion as "racist".
A spokeswoman for the group said that an increased police presence could lead to increased racial profiling, more violence and even deaths.
The Governing Mayor Kai Wegner (CDU) and the Senator Iris Spranger (SPD) have announced measures due to the continuing violence in the outdoor pools. One of these measures is to set up mobile guards in front of some of the bathrooms. In addition, ID checks were arranged at the entrances and the fences were increased to prevent climbing. In addition, the entrances via video should be monitored in the columbiabad and in the prince pool.
The debate about security in Berlin's outdoor pools continues to be controversial. While the police take increased measures, the demonstrators of the "Migrantifa" see a discriminatory approach. It remains to be seen whether the new security measures will actually lead to a reduction in violence in the outdoor pools.
