Rojava Street in Livorno

Refugio presented the photographic mural "Rojava Street", created in collaboration with Miranda Project and located in Via Santa Caterina, in the Italian city of Livorno.

On the occasion of the international mobilization days #riseup4rojava (18-19 July), Refugio has unveiled the photographic mural "Rojava Street", created in collaboration with Miranda Project and located in Via Santa Caterina, in Livorno.

The faces that emerge along the street are the portrait of all those who, in the North-East of Syria, have for years been pursuing a confederal revolution that fights for the liberation of women, for the development and implementation of a political-ecological thinking and a cooperative economy, for the creation of a grassroots democracy and for the establishment of an inclusive community where all ethnic groups in the region and all professed cults may live together peacefully.

These same faces also recount the signs of the inhuman violence to which all those living in Kurdish-Syrian territory are subjected daily and indiscriminately, along with all the Kurds in Turkey, Iraq and Iran.

     

The dirty war waged by the Turkish government, led by the fascist Erdogan and his AKP party, hides a deep collaborationist plot that involves us all. Italy, in fact, as a NATO member and therefore a supporter of the war conducted by the Turkish state, continues undisturbed to administer its commercial interests with Turkey, of which it is one of the main suppliers of weapons and armaments of war.

During the event, the Anarchici Livornesi [Anarchists of Livorno] recalled the Suruç massacre on its fifth anniversary, putting up a banner with the following message: “2015-2020, Suruç İçin adalet, Justice for Suruc, Justice for All".

The Refugio, against the collaborationism of the Italian state, the geopolitical manoeuvres practised on the skin of the Kurdish people and other populations living in Kurdistan and the violence of the Turkish state, joins the call of #riseup4rojava.
