thank you for a copy of the book. i need an awful i will hire a record head to plant entire family live in a village outside. but when there's almost always a full house and politics is a favorite topic at the dinner table. the family is alarmed by the rise of the far right in eastern germany. i keep telling people, go and vote. otherwise nothing will ever change that. and almost 25 percent of the people in the state of brandenburg support the right wing populist party, the a.f.d.c. with their political activism. the hildebrand's a keeping regain a spirit alive even today. she's remembered fondly in eastern germany. read widely,

followed him for fun. i've just been so amazed in the last few days by how much people remember grandma when you were travelling? yes, she's like a superhero. they really idolize her. to be honest, i was almost shocked. shocked by the excavator operator said that meeting, i think, you know, hildebrand's grandchildren was like hitting the jackpot. yeah, there's a lot to live up to now a days, many in eastern germany feel there's no one on the political stage who represents that interests. as asked most from our club, this would make for a start, it wasn't a reunification. onces time simply imposed itself on the other west. germany didn't bother to even come siddur if there was anything in the east german system that

could have been useful to fix the problem. one boosted cohesion was they didn't think what aspects of east germany should we take a closer look at. maybe keep, they only cared about things that related directly to a market economy, and that was a mistake. but the head of land often spoke to her children about the fall of the wall about the joy of we unification. and the mistakes made and its aftermath is going to make if we adjusted downward keep going. where's the man in the moon?

trance and then tony, i go back on the red. this time they're on their way to saxony, the part of the country where the shift to the far right is mystic street. they want to find out why the president is famous for its cultural landmarks, but also as the cradle of the notorious pigweed, amazement, which is nationalist, anti islam. and far right, i am. i am i am. i am supporters regularly demonstrate against chancellor angle, america's refugee see against the idea of

a multicultural germany for a few times and antonia their extreme politics. right? nothing like thank you. when the piggy demonstrations began in 2014, they struck and at their peak they drew 10000 people today any a small step in course still take to the streets every week. antonia and funds the meeting to be this vote. he's put on sunglasses as a journalist, he's anything but welcome here. how often have you been here? over 100 times. i've really, that's quite something pretty picky. there was founded in october 24th team. so this year marks its 5th anniversary. good to know there's a lot of dedication going into this system. it's amazing how much time and energy is invested in something so pointless. it depends. most people here don't think

demonstrating is pointless. quite a few draw parallels with communist east germany. they felt silenced, then, and claim to feel silenced today, even though their unafraid to spread was a rough and overtly racist slogans. the following after several of i was at the demonstrations in 1009. and the mood now is similar. you can't dismiss these people as nazis, that's just rubbish. there are thousands of people have grievances and they just want to express them. bring with them then you haven't didn't. this is our way of telling the government that a lot is wrong with this country. is closer personally, i don't want to see islam take over germany if that's what you want. fine, but i don't. and neither do, most germans. you're either so many. in fact, the majority of people in dresden including to be a sloth don't sympathize with the piggy, to support as he says they've crossed too many lines with that inflammatory and

racist rhetoric. this information only mentioned to me, these people are lost causes you can't get through to them, or thought it was too old. or at the very least that people who will accept the violence sloganeering in order to celebrate themselves as something better. because that what none of us has on the us was a virgin was going to kill this secret data that gave his deputy leader a green. is he going to kick us out there? he can't. how could he call it? he seen us there, but he's pretending to ignore us. there he goes, doing his man of the people. frank was all that he has put those guys who were hiding around before him. so us doesn't go that far. 1 but i was a sure guys, whatever they like, circling sharks, know exactly why the force is the biggest supporters of a small but vocal minority, but the fact remains the far right is gaining ground. it's good to,

but i think the there are right wing tendencies all over europe and there's donald trump in the us. but here it's taken on a different dimensions. it's not just about job losses and industry, it's being shut down, which is bad enough. it's like the warm food, it's the fact that there's been an entirely new society to adjust to daily life values of and who has what i mean to say is there is no justification whatsoever for racism and marginalizing people. that's completely totally wrong. but i can understand that people feel frustrated and left behind and that they struggle to identify with our society today. just fine efforts, you know. the far right f.t. is seizing the moment, and saxony attended the state parliament in 2014 and is currently the state's strongest party after the city, antonia and the meeting, a.f.d.

politician andre events. it's not a conversation, any of them exactly relishes. but look, one thing, you know, i assume you know that we don't sympathize with the a.f. deal or you don't have to. we don't. i think the f.t. is pretty creepy to be honest. about us of not at all the slogan on my election poster is there must be limits to immigration. and the f.d.a. was founded in 2013, which is when the 1st wave of asylum seekers arrived in germany. and there was no firm political intervention. you could not think and you think most of them risked their lives and get in these rubber boats just to economic reasons. the court a majority. yes, that's my opinion. but used to being racist. i don't know why, but i can't explain it. if you have no clue what will be interesting to know why

your party, which you're active in is seen as racist. it's an accusation meant to make us look bad by speaking there. what about the terrible speeches denying history and the diatribes against homosexuals? the respect a lot of, it's a question of how the media instrumentalists is. these issues in germany, people are labeled far right, very quickly, article young guns of what it is that i get and that i don't know. it's certainly true that given our history, we germans have a particular duty when it comes to the expression of far right opinions. that goes without saying the other day transcendental money and spend an hour talking to and play event. but they find little common ground.

when we just got off, it's just very obvious to me that the democracy we live in can't be taken for granted. and i'm very aware that it's not an especially good shape right now. and bashed every time i it's monday evening and france and his house mates are having a policy just a stone's throw from where their grandmother once lived from where the but once stood from the full moon, from knowing if the cold war, the grandchildren, a celebrating with friends from around the world, and it's a, a miracle. dear friends. dear antonia.

since i'm sitting on the terrace at twilight, it's peaceful. you're mine and my 3 grandchildren sleep, untroubled in front of me, are photo albums. that date back to when i was younger than you are now. how times have changed it as a 943 when i was 2, the same age, just serious. now it was wartime. we were evacuated from central berlin, our home to the country. shortly thereafter, our home was bombed, we lost almost everything we own, and at antonia's age i had experienced evacuation the end of the war. back in berlin, i lived in makeshift lodgings with a toilet in the stairwell. i started over from nothing when i was 8. francis age germany was split into 2 and remain divided for decades. when your mother was born in 1969, the wall was already 8 years old. you my grandchildren were born after the wall

fell, born in a unified germany, a wonderful time, a time of great joy. now i'm going to get political it will be nice if we could get better at making our towns and cities proper communities. where rich and poor are sick and the helping the young and the old, the disadvantaged and the advantaged could live together. and children would learn from early on how to get along together and how to take responsibility for our world. i'm going to furnish the darkness has fallen still peaceful may remain. so for your sakes, my dear grandchildren parents they

ok you were that's enough for me. me to explain one to change something. that is what heidi believes, but i'm a person should come to soon as i find a solution. i go for the foreign minister of ecology knows this one with me for instance, and soon in coleman turn to salesman the next. fortunately,

she's not much in a d. is more support 30 minutes or more in the eye of climate change conference to see what's in store for the future. contests are going to get students to the multimedia insight, culture and you hear me now. years and years we can hear you and how the last 2 years german chancellor will bring you an angle, a man called and you've never had to have the full surprise yourself with what is possible. who is magical, really, what moves are employed? who talks to people who follows her along the way,

admirers and critics alike now as the world's most powerful woman shaking her legacy. join us from eccles la, stops the studio. we newsline from berlin. if there is on the edge of a civil war that could destabilize the entire foreign of africa, the leaders of the northern cheek right region have claimed responsibility for firing rockets into neighboring eritrea. and more reports are coming in of attacks against civilians as thousands flee the fighting. also coming up after 8 years of
