Info:
Last year on July 22nd, Norway was brutally hit by far right terrorism.

This was the most violent racist act in Europe since the end of the war in the former Yugoslavia, as well as the symbol of the increase of racist and far right violence all over Europe for years: increase in racist and antisemitic stereotypes, speeches and murders, and of the influence of the political forces that are structured by racism and antisemitism, especially the European far right.

How strong is the phenomenon today? How to fight it?

This debate is a cooperative effort between the Cultural Committee, the Student Parliament at the University of Oslo, and the European Grassroots Antiracist Movement – EGAM.
