Clandestine DAY Today more than ever. Today, when else? Worldwide associations migrant, the whole movement for rights and against barbarism, men and women across Italy, Italians and immigrants together, are mobilizing to ensure that the day of 17 October this year is a day that will leave its mark. A day from which to start to draw lines for the construction of new rights of citizenship. On 17 October will be held in Rome a big national demonstration against racism. We, the Metis Association City of Empoli, we want to give our contribution for today Saturday, September 26 by organizing a big anti-racism event in Empoli and launching a call to action to all citizens to participate in the national event.
The Italian government is complicit in violations of basic human rights. He is doing through the illegal practice of rejections, which does not allow the grant to those who qualify for refugee status and political asylum; clear international standards such as the Charter of Fundamental Rights prohibits refoulement to countries where they do not and ensure respect for human rights. Who knows what awaits ruling rejected Libya: torture, detention in inhumane conditions, sexual violence. The agreements with the torturer Gaddafi about these practices. I have reported on all major human rights groups, from Amnesty International to Human Rights Watch, he's denouncing the Commission also European Union. Despite all this, the government pretends not to notice and continues to practice and to justify this illegal and inhuman conduct. See even accept in full regalia, the dictator Gaddafi has aroused deep indignation in all of us.
The rejections, as well as the security package approved in August, representing a return to the early human rights. " The law is not the same for most if not all documents have become a criminal offense, a state can not be said to be more civil if an illegal immigrant does not allow even the sacrosanct right to recognize a child if you deny a child the right to have parents .
policies of institutional racism is inserted in a context of inability to govern the crisis. The government, led by the league, is trying to spread hatred and fear of the foreigner and the other by fomenting a war between the poor so that can have dramatic implications.
Forced in practice have only served to campaign, not at all influenced the dynamics of "containment" of immigration: If you have real data of the ministry of the interior, only 8 % of illegal immigrants entering by sea. We could go on and on demagoguery and bad faith inherent in the dialectic of the government and the Northern League, Minister Maroni on the head.
We are witnessing a war against the poor. The attack is the attack on migrant rights, the precarious, students, homeless, workers, the LGBT community.
Combating racism while fighting for the right to health, jobs, housing, defense of public schools, the right to education, services, free access to culture. On all this, about life, much needed to draw the lines to win new rights of citizenship. We have already said and we repeat: there is no security without rights.
There are two possible exit from the crisis, radically opposing democracy or barbarism. This is the time where you have to decide which side they are.
We invite all to a concert tomorrow night with the Working Reggae Vibes, the CS intifada in Ponte a Elsa in Via 25 Aprile. Please contact us to get together Rome Saturday, October 17, our association is being organized to allow people as possible to reach Rome from Empoli.
