RS #15 2012: Police raids in Görlitzer Park – are they racist?
Have you witnessed a police raid in Görlitzer Park that only targets black people? Would you be prepared to tell the police to stop racial profiling? One anti-racism group is asking you to do just that. We talk to a Berliner who accidentally took a flight direct from Schönefeld to Tegel, and Joel explains why he's now a fan of the new airport. Two brown bears living in an odd little enclosure near Märkisches Museum may soon be moved to roomier pastures - but with a 480-sq/m central pad, what are they complaining about? The man trying to shut down Berlin's spätkaufs might not have any friends, but he claims he's doing it to restore neighborly interaction. We talk about the motivations of the spätkauf hater from Prenzlauer Berg.
