People take part in a demonstration against racism and far right politics, in Erfurt, eastern Germany on January 20, 2024. Revelations that members of Germany's far-right AfD discussed mass deportation plans have pushed tens of thousands of people to protest and sparked a debate on whether the anti-immigrant party should be banned. From Cologne to Leipzig to Nuremberg, Germans across the country have poured into the streets over the last week, with another 100 demonstrations expected through the weekend.
