Palermo, July 8 1960 to 2010
In the early '60s, in Italy, the internal migration flows, the passage of the mass production, the rapid development of the postwar create imbalances harder to defend.
It is a growing crisis of representation of parties and trade unions before the strong discontent of the working class that has to deal with the closure of many factories and layoffs.
In those years, the Italian state has no real democratic culture. Prefects, police officers and many politicians are the same people who made their fortunes under fascism. The institutions have never really defascistizzate also because of the opportunism of the parliamentary left consists Communist Party and the Socialist Party. Since 1960 there
il governo Tambroni, formato dalla sola Democrazia Cristiana e appoggiato dai voti determinanti dei fascisti del Movimento Sociale Italiano (MSI). È la prima volta che succede, da quando il fascismo è caduto ed è nata la Repubblica.
L’8 luglio è sciopero generale. Pochi giorni prima, l’insurrezione popolare di Genova aveva impedito che in quella città, medaglia d’oro della Resistenza, si svolgesse il VI Congresso nazionale del MSI. In tutta Italia si tengono manifestazioni operaie e antifasciste in cui la polizia spara e ammazza: Reggio Emilia, Roma, Catania, Licata, Palermo.
A Palermo il corteo operaio è blindato da uno schieramento di polizia imponente. L’ordine è di disperdere the crowd at any cost. Suddenly, the starting positions. The axle brutally swift procession with the jeep driven at speed.
The protesters defended themselves by throwing stones, sticks and what they find. The area between the Teatro Massimo and Piazza Politeama turns into a battlefield. Is erected a barricade in the middle of the road, but at this point the cops began firing on the crowd.
die killed by the police:
Today, fifty 'years later, the fascists are firmly at the helm of the institutions.
Today, fifty years after the police beat and kill with impunity, not only in demonstrations, but also the streets and in prisons: Carlo Giuliani Federico Aldrovandi, Stefano Marcello Cucchi Lonzi, etc..
Today, fifty years later, "democracy" is an empty word that describes a country humbled by its political class, terrified by racist and authoritarian policies, suffocated by an economic crisis caused by the bosses and capitalism.
Today, fifty years later, the memory of those who died on the way to freedom is to renew our commitment to stand against fascism e a rilanciare la lotta per una società veramente libera dalla brutalità dello stato e del capitale.
