Racist complaint - demonstration and right-wing protest in Sebnitz

Left demands clarification and consequences

The Left Party demanded clarification from the city council and the mayor as well as consequences. "An apology is not enough", she said. It is also questionable whether someone who has such ideas is still allowed to train and pass on this stigmatization to people.

The Dresden Chamber of Crafts had distanced itself from the behavior at the weekend and announced that it would hear the company regarding its suitability as a training company. The master roofer from Sebnitz held out the prospect of an apprenticeship, but excluded certain people as applicants. These were described using anti-Semitic, racist and discriminatory terms.

The city council condemned the "advertisement with contemptuous and xenophobic content", which also sparked outrage across the region. It filed criminal charges against the author and the publisher, who apologized for the mistake and announced consequences. According to Linke district leader Steiner, it is not enough that the employee responsible was dismissed.
