Mach' meinen Kumpel nicht an!

About us

The association “Don’t harass my mate!” (Mach’ meinen Kumpel nicht an! – für Gleichbehandlung, gegen Rassismus e.V.) also known as the Yellow Hand and the Buddy Association, stands up against racism, right-wing extremism and discrimination and in favour of equal treatment, diversity and solidarity. It was founded in 1986.
The Yellow Hand aims to establish a fundamental attitude in the world of work: a personal commitment against racism and in favour of respectful personal interaction based on acceptance. Since its foundation, the association has been employing diverse projects and measures to motivate and mobilise colleagues to get involved in the fight against racism and the Right in the workplace. It has been campaigning in favour of work against racism and education on democracy as part of in-company and vocational school training. Above all, the Yellow Hand remains what it was from the very beginning: the trade union symbol against racism and the Right, against hatred and violence.
