A vehicle was parked outside the concert hall, escorted with a security system, and wthout public announcement of this action, in the context of Donaueschinger Musiktage -one of the most prestigious Festivals for New Music worldwide-, based on signs of race, socioeconomic status, gender, age, and color; attendees were chosen to be questioned and physically inspected before accessing the concert hall.
This action took place parallel to the migration crisis of 2015. In this year, Syrians made up 36% of the asylum claims, followed by Afghans, Iraqis, Albanians, Iranians and Eritreans.
