Young, Jewish, Angry: Hanna Veiler reads in Augsburg

When anger does not leave one speechless but forms the beginning of a conversation, a reading becomes a real laughing experience without comedy punchlines: On November 18, 2026, Hanna Veiler will present her book Young, Jewish, Angry in Augsburg. The publicist and political educator talks about Jewish identity, growing antisemitism, and the question of how young Jewish people shape their future in Germany.

A voice between hope and contradiction

Hanna Veiler combines personal experiences with political analysis. Her perspective focuses on a generation that, after October 7, 2023, experiences a new reality: threats at universities, on social media, and in the streets shape the everyday lives of many young Jews. Her reading promises not to be a comfortable feel-good event but a concentrated evening with clear thoughts, precise language, and space for exchange.

Literature that sparks conversation

The book tells of the hope for a new Jewish community in Germany and the fear that increasingly overshadows this hope. Veiler raises questions not only about belonging and safety but also about self-awareness, solidarity, and the courage to make contradiction visible. Her style connects autobiographical perspectives with a well-founded engagement with antisemitism and Jewish life.

An engaged author with a clear stance

Hanna Veiler was born in 1998 in Belarus and grew up in South Germany from 2005. She has been involved for many years in Jewish and civil society structures, served as president of the Jewish Students' Union Germany, and was awarded as Woman of Europe and as an ambassador for democracy and tolerance in 2024. As a publicist, activist, and political educator, she brings together expertise, personal experience, and a distinct social stance.
