There have been weekly demonstrations in Hamburg, Germany recently  by African refugees, largely from the Libyan war. Below is their website: Lampedusa is the Italian island where many refugees have arrived from Africa.

Below is a video of a protest this week. The German part is a translation of what the protest speaker is saying in English.

Here is an update from Vlad Tepes with two new videos. One shows the Tuesday night scuffles with police. The second describes the complaints of police checks and efforts of the refugees to remain in Germany. Many are being assisted and housed by the local Pauli church.
