It 's a silent procession that invades the streets of Rosarno after the revolt broke out Thursday. Now the young women say no to those who want to make this country the plain of Gioia Tauro, wound up by the Mafia in April 2008, a rise of racist and intolerant.
not speak, do not sing, let the words to a single banner that opens the parade, "Abandoned by the state! Criminalized by the media. 20 years of cohabitation. We are not racists. "
Even traders have lowered the blinds and I'm here to protest and defend their image. Two thousand rosarnesi braved the rain and cold and is the first time that happens in this land of the South that people have the strength to speak up, to rebel. In a "surveilled country" as they say fired the signs, where the 'Ndrangheta conquer and control everything, so here they are all united in their rebellion and reiterate now that "Africans must go on."

Santucci, young woman who was attacked on Thursday afternoon is here now and still tells the fear in his eyes the terrible adventure: "I was on the road with my car and suddenly I found myself in the flames, I threw stones on the machine and all around there were immigrants. I thought now they kill me. I was afraid. "
"Why they did this, we continued, we gave these people food and blankets. It is not our fault if they did not have a roof to sleep, the houses here are cheap, even two hundred euro, but they preferred to send all the families in their country and were in inhumane conditions. "
Walk along the procession moves up in head-to-symbol Rosarno tolerant of the organizers have given way to a family of color, immigrants, built in the territory for years. They also brought the children. A little further on there is also the former commissioner of the Municipal Council dissolved by Domenico Ventre mafia and even the former Regional Minister Xavier Zavettieri.
Then the students clean the face of this city, the future of Calabria. However, a future that seems to be already decided by who controls the territory. And yes, during the event happens that three of high school students are not allowed to parade with their banner, a banner that says no to the Mafia. Are asked to fold, to put it away, to expose "the balcone di casa”.
Tutto sotto controllo, tutto già deciso e così anche le uniche parole dette in strada alla fine della manifestazione sono state lasciate ad un comunicato letto da Federica, una giovane studentessa.
Ma restano gli spari contro i braccianti di colore, restano i ghetti velocemente smantellati dopo la rivolta e tocca al procuratore capo Giuseppe Creazzo adesso fare luce su quanto avvenuto. Nei locali della procura di Palmi c’è stata infatti in mattinata una veloce riunione per accertare il possibile ruolo dei clan della piana di Gioia Tauro nella vicenda.
