Pierluigi On

[29 May 2008] Symbols are important, and how. When he speaks, I always think back a written faded but still legible by the time that I saw on the wall of an ancient villa of the Val d'Orcia, in Tuscany. It was drawn with red paint and brush and say "Viva Mao." Beyond what, with hindsight, it can be said of the Cultural Revolution, etc.., What was most moving for me was the fact that up in that corner of the country, including cypress trees and red clay, a lad, evidently sessantottino, he thought just, useful, to know what the symbol, the name of Mao Tse-tung, who wanted to throw against the established order. Microscopic event, but come to think not much different from the radio with which Peppino Impastato, who was assassinated forty years ago, decided to fight the Mafia. Today we linger to "collect the flags" and protecting the hammers and sickles, but the truth is that symbols do not have much effective, we - the word very complicated and larger than it appears - we feel on edge when a Roma camp is set on fire, get irritated if a handful of "forzanovisti" (as they called their leader, duly interviewed by the TV) to take blows to a group of students, if there scaremongering around the issue of waste Neapolitan building a legal system worthy, writes Stephen Rodotà the Republic, an "authoritarian democracy" (Marco Revelli says "despotic"), we feel powerless when about one million people, known as "illegal" is applicable, such as game hunting in the "security".

So, since our job is to communicate, and even if we are able to produce symbols, we have thought of proposing a charter. We do not know if it will work if we have the ability and strength enough to spread the idea, but who knows. The reasoning is this: we must find a word-symbol that unifies the committees (prohibited by law) of citizens from landfills (but tomorrow it will be those against the TAV or base in Vicenza or the Strait Bridge); migrants whose life itself is denied, the Roma, who are the last rung of the ladder, the illegal workers, many of whom are undocumented aliens, etc.. In short, to say, look at that, without the necessary differences in the end is with all of you that Maroni and Berlusconi are taking it. And what is the word that can symbolize all this? Perhaps "clandestine" we said in the history of many of these derogatory words, full of negativity, were challenged by those who suffered and shamelessly exhibited. And as a self-report their condition of "illegal"? With a classic means of communication: a T-shirt.

said and done, this is the shirt that simply says "Clandestino", with a twist that the "o" at the end is replaced by a fingerprint. And the chain, so to speak, is guaranteed. The shirts are made in Bangladesh by one of the first experiences of manufacturing ethics: the workers have a much better working conditions and wages than the national average and guaranteed health care and are imported altraQualità from one of the most important central Italian trade fair, to print the Craft of Art 'Graphic Asti [www.promotus.it]: the final price (12 € including shipping) a certain percentage goes to the project of " Tailoring rom ", launched in Roma Quintiliani outskirts of Rome. A card must be less than two euro, the effort that we put right. You can request it, you can wear it around, since the summer will be hot, and you can also sell it in shops, libraries, etc..
