Protest in Chemnitz: What is the root of this hate?
Our guests:
Karen Taylor is a Policy Advisor and expert on racism. She says: "As long as Germany does not deal with its racism problem more people will be hunted because of their race - not only in Chemnitz!"
Hans Pfeifer works for DW and is an expert on right wing extremism. He says: "Germany is facing a constitutional crisis - politicians and citizens increasingly ignore the basic principles of Germany's core values."
Malte Lehming is a commentator for the daily newspaper “Der Tagesspiegel”. He says: “The events in Chemnitz are shocking and disgusting. But by and large – and especially in a European perspective – Germany coped with the refugee crisis quite well. More than 300.000 migrants have found a job, unemployment is low, the welfare system strong.”
