“Feminism is no longer needed!” At least that’s what antifeminist actors claim – and categorically reject feminism as a unified enemy. Antifeminism manifests itself in diverse ways. It pursues a political agenda of restriction and hindrance to participation. Antifeminism opposes socio-political changes that strive for more equality and enable diverse lifestyles. In other words, it is precisely against more freedom and participation opportunities that feminists are fighting for. Focusing on the context of Germany, the exhibition of the project “Spotlight – Recognising and Countering Antifeminism” and the NS-DOK provides initial insights and aims to encourage further examination.
