They wanted to censor our initiative sull'antifascismo. Letter to the Mayor of Genoa Power Egr. Mr. Mayor
We are writing this letter to put it to the attention of an unfortunate event which happened Friday night in Piazza Duca della Verdura at a political initiative and we organized sull'antifascismo burning issue of youth. Problem, the latter, crucial question today should not only different political communities but society as a whole. And is it common to try to give answers.
Well, yesterday evening, a local police lieutenant has done everything to frustrate an initiative of the political and moral weight. First, asking not necessary licenses and permits (the rights to the music siae self-produced improbable permits and authorizations issued by the police) arousing a climate of tension between the many children present there. And, as often happens, by appealing to a formality that has unfortunately become an instrument of protection weapon of deprivation, was found the loophole: the system that we brought (plant is a saying as they were two simple boxes to put music) and the electrical system in the town of Potenza, through an application for approval of public land we had already provided and were not likely to undergo testing.
do not want to complain about heavy bureaucracy and perhaps the failure of initiatives aimed at the information at no cost, but because she as well as being the first citizen is an influential political figure we believe it is the appropriate policy to reflect the seriousness that this act has caused. As you know our Republic was founded by his anti-fascist momentum that an entire people (and not a single part as some say today) was determined. The Basilicata has been a protagonist in this struggle for liberation, entire communities (materials and Rionero), authoritative figures have paid a heavy price to build a society free from the shackles of fascist. More than sixty years of
quell'epilogo Today we witness shocking events throughout Italy. The terrible massacre of the boy in Verona, punitive expeditions made in Rome, attacks on migrants and nomadic communities, bullying aimed humiliation, a mode daily reports of violent and often cruel, should require those who seek to improve the life of a community with a rigorous analysis and a serious political and pedagogical practice.
Who tells us that unbridled individualism, which is now the cornerstone of our society can not tolerate even lead to a resurgence in a city like ours?
is the task of trying to reshape a policy perspective, an alternative way of living based on a different approach to staying together, the relationship with the other self, the idea of \u200b\u200bprotecting the community, care and love with which we must address certain problems that threaten the lives of young generations, the future of the city that we set build.
But it can also contribute towards the protection of those workers and those workers who have the responsibility to monitor and ensure compliance with the community, the credibility of institutions.
For these reasons we believe that initiatives like the one we have launched Friday an important value, to be inside the ills of society from the bottom to try to change a common sense that seems geared towards a very worrying direction. But we must avoid the recurrence of complaints like the one we suffered.
Authority is not synonymous with authoritarianism.
What they thought those girls and those boys who have been to prohibit a peaceful and constructive moment of reflection and celebration? He does not believe that the relationship between rulers and ruled has been stiffened by a unilateral act by the person who, at that time represented the institutions? We need to work on both sides if we want to regain that trust relationship that is often lacking today, especially among young people. This is perhaps the most difficult challenge that lies ahead: to ensure that policy and thus the institutions can again be considered by future generations as necessary tools for democratic life, as places to be filled with the participation and commitment, and corporate burdens, unnecessary power groups, "caste". There is also a more
not be overlooked.
Basilicata is among the first regions in Italy about consumption of hard drugs. Many girls and boys do not have many tools to satisfy the thirst for culture, creativity, entertainment. Even lack of places in this city in charge of this. Lack of initiative free facilities, laboratories in which the potential of youth can be translated into practical improvements in the community. Very often young people go out of our city not only because of the absence of a steady job and liked, but for this serious offense.
If the individual does not meet, talk, show solidarity on common issues, they try to give answers to shared emotional quell'analfabetismo so well described in the last work of Umberto Galimberti, if you do not have fun, meet, fall in love, se non vivono tutte le contraddizioni della vita, credo che la nostra città corra il rischio di pagare un prezzo molto alto. Una società che limita i propri giovani è una società destinata nell'immediato futuro a perire.
Ridefiniamo nuovi spazi pubblici di relazione, ripartiamo dalle piazze come luoghi di incontro e di socialità, proviamo discutere insieme sugli innumerevoli questioni che caratterizzano le nostre vite. Restiamo vivi tra i ragazzi di strada diceva un noto poeta, solo così ridaremo senso alla nostra azione politica.
Osservando il suo lavoro quotidiano ci rendiamo conto che anche lei sente questo problema come prioritario, per questo siamo convinti che su questo punto potremo trovare delle convergenze importanti.
Sincerely
Coordination of Youth of the Left
