WORLD WORLDWIDE EUROPE GERMANY - news journal UPDATE - (en) Germany, FDA-IFA: Military Service? Refuse! by agdortmund (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 Sharepic for the event "Military Service? Refuse!". The background is

gray. The title of the event is written in large black over two lines at
the top. Below it is a horizontal line in brown. The rest of the image
is divided into two columns. The first column, at the top and
right-aligned, reads "Lecture & Discussion." Below it, in the center of
the column, right-aligned, reads "06.025 - 8 a.m. with the DFG-VK at the
Black Pigeon Dortmund." At the bottom of the column are the logos of the
DFG-VK and the Anarchist Group Dortmund. The second column is a
full-length image. The image is a charcoal drawing of a city at night
with bombs falling on it. A person can be seen in the foreground. On the
clock tower in the center of the city, graffiti reads "War" and "Peace."
Behind the city is a mountain with a red flag hoisted on it.
Military Service? Refuse! On October 16, 2025, at 6 p.m., we will
discuss the current situation regarding the newly planned military
service together with the German Peace Society (DFG-VK). Joachim, state
spokesperson for the German Peace Society - United War Resisters NRW,
will outline the current situation regarding military and other
compulsory services in his presentation. We will hear reasons why it
makes sense to refuse military service and how this works. At the end of
the presentation, Joachim will also devote several paragraphs to the
current situation of the threat of a major war and provide an outlook
for the coming years.

The topic of being trans and military service will also receive special
attention. What regulations do trans people face? We look forward to an
exciting presentation and a lively discussion afterwards.

The room will be open from 6 p.m., and the event begins at 6:15 p.m. and
is scheduled to last approximately two hours. The event is free of
charge; there will be no food, but hot and cold drinks will be available
for purchase on site. You can also bring your own food and drinks. The
Black Pigeon (Scharnhorststraße 50, 44147 Dortmund) is wheelchair
accessible. The lecture/workshop will be held in spoken German;
whispered interpretation in English is available upon request; please
notify us of your needs in advance by email to agdo@riseup.net. From the
main train station, the venue can be reached by subway (Hafen stop, U47
Westerfilde, or U49 Hafen).
