Antilopen Gang And Beate Zschäpe – Music And Society

Beate Zschäpe, Günter Grass, Holger Apfel – and the list goes on: Published in 2014, the song “Beate Zschäpe hört U2” (Beate Zschäpe listens to U2) mentions not only the German extremist but also politicians and artists who expressed antisemitic or racist thoughts. It also stresses the everyday phenomenon of xenophobia: It is Max Mustermann (the German equivalent to John Doe), who attacks a refugee camp in the song.
