Lesung Hannah und Chiara präsentieren "Gegen das Klima der Gewalt"

In the organizer's words:

Why we can't stop climate change with this police force and what needs to change

"All Cops Are Bastards": Policewoman Chiara replies to this post by climate activist Hannah and has no idea of the consequences. What could have remained a digital exchange among many becomes the beginning of a friendship and a shared commitment.

While Hannah is met with mistrust from the activists, police officer Chiara is hit hard: her employer initiates disciplinary proceedings and a dispute about the boundaries between freedom of expression and the duty of neutrality begins.

So that state authority and civil society can enter into dialog

In view of countless unresolved crises, Chiara and Hannah call for a far-reaching reform of the police in their book Against the Climate of Violence - before it is too late. The authors take us into the everyday life of the police at the borders, to the struggles for climate justice and together analyze what drives the grievances of our time: a rousing look behind the scenes and a plea to rethink society.

This stirring book about the unusual friendship between a climate activist and a policewoman is thought-provoking.
