2:20 pm
children about it because it's important to know my. vice the strongest friend i. was a part of let's hear from you the current government has managed to instill a fear of immigrants and the general public the idea that they bring disease and pose a threat for national office was a garage right now turning people against one another and inciting fear like the protests the worst are. just terrorists my gosh. her. point of all this get all your employees for your boss get a car to go thank you but if i
2:21 pm
cut the pay structure which are special just the toll we are placed on those of us to chase all the delegates are you hardly ever going to find out i think i. begin to simple that i'm just that's and that we have a serious problem with nationalism and the government except such that a lot we're seeing a growing number of attacks on the streets against people because of their background or sexual orientation as it's been allowed in texas it's one now where it's a. love of the castle was deployed to the demonstrations like these patriotism has been used to stir up hatred against anyone who in matthew doesn't belong to that although for the most artists it's an example of how poland's right wing is trying to control the political narrative yes local stuff is also there's a relation to aggression and i sense that the situation could escalate at any 2nd so that's just that's just as i'm getting out of here. this isn't the right place
2:22 pm
to try and find common ground is to give it there's no point in seeking a dialogue with this lot to do it but as a member said. along with us nothing a lot of young people in athens in greece grew up with the idea of a united europe social movement and only a europe that offers everyone equal. all opportunities open most of it is go. overboard but now i wonder if that was a europe that never really existed at all. of

2:24 pm
delimiters another bipolar just to consider the figures we're talking about a 1000000 refugees who came to the e.u. get it which is home to 500000000 people. mostly because they owe it all all personally i see immigration more as an opportunity than a threat. when you believe in yourself that things need to change now and one else is doing it and it's you responsibility to do it and in the worst situation you fell and you try again. i was 22 when we created which is upon you.
2:25 pm
before i could actually have a real voice in politics i could have waited an extremely long time if i joined a traditional party really i could have but i think that there's a real edge and. when you look at global challenges like migration flows climate change fiscal justice we don't have a choice but to deal with those issues that you can. avoid the what actually means energy the unit of measure of energy we want to and in the job and part of things but most importantly is the same way that you know every single night when you see how awful it. all behind the same name. you created both as a result. 6 there was so many wrong things happening and we really for the
2:26 pm
confident was going the wrong direction you know the rise of my hand up in france in germany the far right was also rising and it kind of came together and on their part ok let's create a new policy. and. so he started to work on the idea for a bit and i was helping out and then we had a man who joins and we had to create a national party is to be able to run for elections but we're running on one program. europe's younger generation is waking up 70 percent of votes members have never been politically active told me they're responding to populism with this. vision of a tolerant to 92 year old he's pushing for greater solidarity among the states and an economy that seems so environmentally sustainable peace 6.

2:28 pm
and we have to take it to the coolpix is a worrying development go beyond china and help fellow lawyers do pro bono welcome behalf of people who find themselves having to defend their basic rights against the state. i think i as a settlement proposal rushed this is about the rule of law and you know as lawyers we help ensure there's a fair relationship between the powerful state and ordinary citizens who suddenly find themselves facing a court battle that's that upsets on them couples and so they are letting those folks thank you very fulfilling work. or yakking helping is more gratifying than the moment in court when you hear the words sick yes of course. it's the defendant on all charges i'll just tell the facts as well as a family look at each other and feel very proud of ourselves but the thoughts i shared. with this.

2:35 pm
political systems complicated administrative rules. when you vote in germany and in almost every european country you do this on a single ballot trances difference you have one ballot per party and this means that parties are responsible for printing their own ballots in the 1st place and. the parties so to print better for your connections it's amounted to approximately close to 1000000 euros which for a new political party is almost impossible and to this is added the fact that we couldn't open a bank account for a very long time because the financing those critical situations are so strict that every bank refused so we couldn't open a bank account so we couldn't collect money to print ballots which meant that we couldn't compete. it's extremely difficult to accept that because of some really messed up rules and the lack of democratic will from the government you

2:38 pm
a reason for it i don't agree with it but this can you reason puts people on the dump put on the i mean if they're going to extreme put it it's because one they feel a little like this. when you have a part of the nation that is suffering from hunger that doesn't have access to housing. that's not a peaceful society people struggle for their lives. and i have prayed for the security it's not a peaceful society. belltown is also campaigning for a fair rest of society she what some behalf of victims of the housing crisis. in the poorest don't know but here it needs more social justice 1st there's a housing crisis across europe we need a europe wide mass movement calling for

2:40 pm

elections so what we should do as a society for the rings of rationing during your society. my family 1st arrived in germany people gave us so much help my parents were clueless they couldn't speak the language they didn't know they have to register or where they had to go to do so i remember in elementary school teacher who was just amazing she knew that my family and i had come from russia i never felt like an outsider and that's why i'd like it to be for people today. and if they ask if rejection and fear are the 1st things you encounter then things aren't going to go well. as well so funny. about 6 months ago or maybe
2:44 pm
a bit longer i was in the metro with my friend. and a group of men of god and men on the line one of them had a bottle of beer yes i know that it tipped it over some guy's head and insulted him in a racist way sisters but i just. thought it was very aggressive because i just instinctively stood up and challenge him. on the bank the 2 things that bothered me most with that no one else got involved. and that may be very sad that the guy had to go through that and just shrugged it off in a resigned way as if to say. you know this kind of thing happens to me every day when i don't want to. talk.
2:45 pm
and smile with any gestures of support from other students when they call anyone at all. and phone me go hard not to no one help. notice no one helped we have become social outcasts. he does are all for this year for europe for univision didn't 1905 was a different one it was a europe that would grow together. unify. i won't i do worry. but i also have faith that today's younger generation will try just as we do. to shape a better world. but so in that sense. i am optimistic about the future of europe and a goal should. be only for the time being is unable to vote in her own country for the party she co-founded.

2:47 pm
a seat in the european parliament whether in germany on kerry or elsewhere at the end of the day that's all that matters because i had hoped that we could stand in france and italy defense are inevitable i will run next time. hi everyone i just voted in the european elections you can actually put the votes in 8 countries so make sure that you go out and you would have a good day. to have more to control how time passes and which initiate you get to that's not going to be so so convenient and on his journey you have a particular spot points out of stuff that you passed on to any and people channel . and you see so why isn't. it on the train which is something that you don't expect to see here you know be important to.
2:48 pm
historical events or history doesn't repeat itself in exactly the same way but human nature is what it is man. it won't be long before the last holocaust survivors have died. samia believes that makes memorial sites all the more important they document the atrocities committed by the nazis. on the annual walk from auschwitz to birkenau thousands remember the dead and pay their respects to the survivors. i survived for 360 days.
2:49 pm
but so few larger social lives we hope that so many people from all over the world gather here for the annual march of the living and have been doing so for about 3 decades. that's my passion it ensures that history is remembered and the stories will never be forgotten i believe. it's been diminished but we are and i'm very touched by the students and one of them pointed out that the signs people are carrying on like gravestones for people who were denied them even if you're happy. for.
2:50 pm
i feel this can help survivors a lot and obviously it's a good game knowing that young people are interested in them in their story and what they went through hard. as they have battled back to mr carter said that he hopes our generation will fight for a society that respects the dignity of all and welcomes everyone. the message i'm getting today is that i will vote for him but i am. even without the play like right now democracy is in crisis so it's all the more important that we journalists support independent projects such as migratory birds and our nonprofit website welcomes the more we boost the independent media the
2:51 pm
better it is for democracy and you give him a get out the arms. deal. but i mean that they're done i'm pretty excited. we've been working towards this for 2 months. in the finally i get to pick up a new copy of our newspaper. then what i would do if this is the only newspaper the buy and for refugees you can buy in greece i'm very happy but what about the. listening minutes made paper gives a voice to people who haven't been heard so far. with this project we're helping change the public's view of refugees for the better we get mail from readers who say that the newspaper has even made them reflect on their own lives of goodness
2:52 pm
maybe. they now do that on some days i feel very tired. i feel like what i'm doing with my activism goes far beyond the call of duty. and i think wow it's a lot of work but at the end of the day it's very gratifying it's the 1st month ever. lived here. i think to. a. point i want my country poland to respect human rights and our poll the rule of law i fight for these principles in the courts. on the.
2:53 pm
weekends but i'll demonstrate my client was filmed at an anti-government demonstration by polish state t.v. and described on a new show as a common provocateur demanding an apology from the t.v. station and we want to show that the t.v. report was manipulated on. this. the 1st time that an ordinary citizen is bringing an action against the state t.v. station t.v. peak and not the other way round this is my biggest case so far and it's a landmark case for society that most of my guess is very challenging but i feel good about it like it was no good i feel i'm defending european values and contributing to something important that the spikey if there's politics as i'm fighting for a more democratic society that up holds the rule of law is the will but to the market it's the budget provisions that. it will give us for example i love my job i love sorting out the final details the
2:54 pm
night before a court appearance the adrenaline on the day in the news that we seek especially when it's a case that has broader social relevance. i get very invested in the whole thing interest will reach the what it was and we are. now. in court spatter describes how her client has suffered both personally and professionally because of the t.v. report. he's had to switch jobs and he feels he's been publicly shamed just what. in the end the hearing is agend not for the 1st time the case is put on hold for 6 months. but look at the mechanic a different side on to a group of lawyers currently working on the many many cases if the both of the 40 percent of our cases are pro bono that's the problem we represent people with no money who are fighting what we see as an important case. there are many lawyers and
2:55 pm
poland's doing what we do. but the girl i know some of my colleagues laugh at me but i don't care what matters to me is what i see results and see where there's more even in my client gets to stay in their apartment elect us my refugee is granted papers to stay in poland and of course my work can improve people's lives but i try to make sure they get the ruling may mean i can sleep at night but i don't want to sponsor going to. the living room ready. basically the gardens 1st projections it looks like i mean i mean we can go down as we can so dreadfully yet but it looks good really good thanks to you truly. and now. you've got.
2:56 pm
to. work 2 years ago we created jobs we had 0 idea of how politics actually went. 2 years in and this is why been battling it if the entire day i'm so proud of what we have achieved. we can make countries we managed to do well but if you go on tight as we have on with story financing volunteers and so obviously i hope that we are going to be like them once and i think our. way yes. i am enemy i mean does this mean this is an amazing success for vaults in germany and an amazing success for european democracy. in this image shows that in just over 2 years we managed to rally together people across the
2:57 pm
continent. the minds and with the positive democratic vision and a shared program the folks with an opposing team them kardashian obviously. showed that we can do it we are people getting elected who will evidence based policies we've got using puppets to schools and and we keep the lid off changing the political landscape one small step at a time. i mean everyone has a world of pain in politics and and in society as a whole to make food even the society it doesn't is that you have to be in office that many waste and i think the time to sit back and hope that all this will do it plus. and everyone has a responsibility here and we'll get a campaign if we don't do anything to it's too easy.
