In times of social challenges, the cultural scene in Frankfurt is taking a stand against anti-Semitism. 85 years after the November pogroms of 1938, Jews in Frankfurt are once again fearing for their lives. We are horrified to see that the massacre on October 7 and the terrorist attack by Hamas have become the trigger for ongoing anti-Semitic propaganda and violence worldwide, including in Germany.

As cultural leaders in Frankfurt / Rhine-Main, we do not want to remain silent about this. We acknowledge our historical responsibility. We stand up and take a stand: In everyday life, at work, in our circle of friends, in clubs and communities. We raise our voices against anti-Semitism. We stand protectively by the side of Jews. Those who attack them attack us. Our solidarity transcends religious and cultural boundaries.

As a sign of this, we are calling for a chain of lights, supported by the Department of Culture and Science of the City of Frankfurt. Because:

Never again is now!
We will meet on Sunday, December 10, preferably with our own candles.

Between the Iron Footbridge and Ignatz Bubis Bridge (riverside path on the inner city side of the Main)
