Actress Collien Fernandes has called for a demonstration in Berlin for better protection of women against various forms of violence, with notable participants including climate activist Luisa Neubauer.
Collien Fernandes, a well-known actress, has taken to Instagram to encourage a demonstration aimed at improving the protection of women against sexual, physical, and psychological violence. The gathering is set to take place on March 22 at 4 PM at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin, where Fernandes emphasizes the importance of raising awareness about these issues, stating, 'Let's be loud and stay loud!' She highlights the need to shed light on the dark statistics surrounding violence against women.
Prominent figures will join the event, including climate activist Luisa Neubauer and Theresia Crone, both identified as 'affected individuals.' The demonstration will also feature several female musicians and initiatives like 'Nur Ja heißt Ja' and a newly formed collective called 'Feminist Fight Club.' While the police have registered 500 expected participants, there is speculation about whether that number will grow in response to the critical nature of the event.
Fernandes stated that the demonstration is about 'solidarity, justice, and real change in the form of clear laws and real consequences.' This movement reflects a broader societal demand for accountability and a shift in how violence against women is addressed legally and socially, highlighting ongoing issues that affect women in Germany and beyond.
