	Monday demonstrations in East Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The 1989/1990 Monday demonstrations (German: Montagsdemonstrationen) in the East German city of Leipzig were a series of peaceful political protests against the East German government.
		The demonstrations began after prayers for peace in the Nikolai Church with parson Christian Führer, and filled the nearby downtown Karl Marx Platz.
		The demonstrations eventually ended in March 1990, around the time of the multi-party elections that led to German reunification.

		The Monday demonstrators with whom the members of the MLPD are working together closely and on the basis of equal rights are feeling that this smear campaign is also directed against them.
		They are the organized democratic methods of the Monday demonstration movement, the democratic expression of views and the formation of opinion at the open microphone, the democratic decisions with the participation of all demonstrators and, last but not least, the democratic delegation system for the central coordination of the common struggle.
		In the common action the close solidarity of the core of the Monday demonstrators with the comrades from the MLPD is developing as well as an unprecedented openness to the perspective of genuine socialism.

	Monday Demonstrations Attract Fewer Marchers \| Germany \| Deutsche Welle \| 24.08.2004
		The fourth week of "Monday demonstrations" against German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder's welfare reform measures drew tens of thousands of marchers across the country but figures were down from the previous week.
		In what have become regular weekly demonstrations against the German government's labor market and social security reform plans, protestors once again took to the streets in cities across Germany in the latest of the new wave of "Monday demonstrations." However, the expected numbers of demonstrators were well below the estimates of organizers.
		The success of Germany's "Monday Demonstrations," are symbolic of the unexpected return of the reformed Communists, who took a drubbing in the last federal elections but are ahead of the chancellor's party in some polls.

		She told the demonstrators that those were difficult times, and when in 1968 Dr. King was assassinated, the dream shattered.
		Even after the demonstration had formally ended, people wanted to have Amelia Robinson's autograph on their signs and banners, and many young people came over, wanting to know more about the youth movement that is joining with LaRouche and to create an economic and political revolution.
		The peace prayers led by Father Christian Führer, and the demonstrations, were a crucial factor that made the reunification of Germany possible, and freed the people from the utopian policies of the Cold War.

		The second difficulty with demonstrating user testing to an audience is that observing users in action is only part of the process; if people are truly to understand the benefits of user testing, they need to acquire at least a basic understanding of the entire process from start to finish.
		The benefit of this demonstration method was that it allowed audience members to gain some familiarity with the user testing process in its entirety without having to invest one, two, or three days in attending workshops or training sessions.
		By demonstrating the potential value of user testing to many different types of audiences, we hope to encourage a greater affinity for frequent user testing, and to convince usability educators and evaluators that high–speed demonstration methods like Usability@90mph are worth developing and pursuing.

	MANIFESTO FOR THE MONDAY DEMONSTRATIONS
		Today, only 15 short years after the historic Monday demonstrations of 1989 which ushered in the end of the German Democratic Republic, demonstrations are once again taking place in many cities across Germany.
		The people who took to the streets in Monday demonstrations, first in Saxony and then in many other parts of Germany, against the horrors of Hartz 4, sensed that something much bigger is at stake than what is being admitted in public.
		The aim of the demonstrations is not to overthrow the government, but rather, to fundamentally alter its economic policy.

		If certain self-appointed leaders of the Monday demo movement from the circles of the DGB, PDS or ATTAC leaderships want to continue keeping in with the Schroeder government, they should say so openly and stop pulling the movement back by their maneuvers of splitting and confusing.
		This is an outrageous defamation of the movement of Monday demonstrations!
		The militant spirit of solidarity at the Monday demonstrations, uniting young and old, employed and unemployed, Germans and people from other nations in the struggle against Hartz IV, is incompatible with the splittist slander of the fascists.

		BERLIN – Nearly 15 years since masses of demonstrators swelled the streets of East Germany, toppling the Berlin Wall and uniting Germany, a new wave of protests is rolling through eastern towns and cities from Berlin to the Baltic Sea, lending a voice to the widespread disillusionment with reunification.

		The demonstrations in the east have put Chancellor Gerhard Schröder's government under pressure, driving his Social Democratic Party (SPD) to all-time lows in public opinion polls ahead of a key election in the state of Brandenburg on September 19.

		Monday’s demonstrations - whereby illegals are going to ‘strike’ for the day in hopes of hurting the American economy - will be a turning point in the immigration debate.
		But they have now overstepped and over-reached - and thus their movement is going to start to lose support as of the end of Monday’s demonstrations.
