In Gedenken an die Opfer der Reichspogromnacht!

Als SV Werder Bremen stehen wir für eine Gesellschaft, in der Vielfalt, Respekt und Menschlichkeit selbstverständlich sind. Umso wichtiger ist es uns, heute der Opfer des Nationalsozialismus zu gedenken.

Mamdani victory speech:

“New York will remain a city of immigrants, a city built by immigrants, powered by immigrants. And as of tonight, led by an immigrant.”

“So hear me, President Trump, when I say this: To get any of us, you will have to get through all of us.”

Both Spotify & Pandora are running ICE ads. More ethical alternatives for streaming music are:

Deezer - Has free & paid options, podcasts available, active AI labeling.

Tidal - Subscription tiers, free trial, wider musician selection, better sound quality.

Both pay artists more than the above.

Biden pushing this line was bad.
Trump pushing this line is bad.
Bernie pushing this line is bad.

Unless Democrats want to join MAGA's anti-immigration party, we can't start borrowing their rhetoric. We need to make a case for why immigration is good, not run away scared from it.
