From Venice to start the burning of books.
We want to do something?

...
And now tell what is happening.
The culture of the province of Venice, the ex-MSI-today-Speranzon Berlusconi, has agreed the suggestion of his party colleague and intimerà libraries of the Venetian:
1) remove the books from the shelves of all authors in 2004 where he signed an appeal calling for the release of Cesare Battisti
2) give up efforts to organize with such writers (to be declared "undesirable persons", he says).
The librarian who will not accept the diktat "will take the responsibility."
It might be alluding to the freezing of funds, failure to advocacy initiatives, bullying, a hostile press campaign?
The proposal had the approval of COISP, a police union. So the librarian thinks twice before going against the institution and local law enforcement.
a clique of "true democrats" is already moving to extend it throughout the Veneto, and it is likely that the initiative will be emulated across regional boundaries.
Here's what you can read about the "Gazzettino" [3]:
"I will write to the Heads of the Culture of Commons of the Venetian because these people are declared unwanted and ask them, and because the public libraries are included in a provincial system, that their works should be withdrawn from the shelves [...] ask not to promote the presentation of books written by these authors, each municipality will act as they wish, madovrà assume the responsibility. Also as a city councilor in Venice, because Venice will present a motion to set an example for the first [...] We will write to the regional councilors and Marino Zorzi Elena Donazzan, for extending the initiative throughout the Veneto. "Now The very fact that one can conceive such a thing shows that the subsidence is touching new italic, nauseating vileness. We are now drilling the bottom of the Mariana Trench, surrounded by blind and deformed fish, looking for the darkest darkness that might occur in the universe.
We want to be in the bottom of the pit with these gloomy, squalid divers of the complaint, or wish to commit ourselves to re-emerge?
the sun up there, for those who want to see him again.
The blacklist we are many: we, Valerio Evangelisti, Massimo Carlotto, Tiziano Scarpa, Nanni Balestrini, Daniel Pennac, Giuseppe Genna, Giorgio Agamben, Girolamo De Michele, Vauro, Lello Voce, Pino Cacucci, Christian Raimo, Sandrone Dazieri, Loredana Lipperini, Marco Philopat, Gianfranco Manfredi, Laura Grimaldi, Antonio Moresco, Carla Benedetti, Stefano Tassinari and many others.
practice should empty them, the shelves.
And maybe that's what they dream.
course, this is also a provocation, but above all else:
1) is a threat to an entire category of workers (librarians), which should accept an ultimatum authoritarian and anti-constitutional otherwise pay dearly.
2) is a measure designed to isolate and censor writers and artists as "accomplices" of terrorism. An act done by an administrator, a figure of power who, waving a bogey to divert attention from other problems, appeals to the visceral reactions of the "people". An act that wants to intimidate and "marshalling" the producer of public discourse. How
said collegaTiziano Scarpa: "So you hit the nationality of a writer who is in the language and his works." [4]
we should respond to this crap all, not just writers or librarians directly involved directly threatened.
- citizens should be heard, readers, patrons of libraries.
- should be heard administrators, political parties and associations of Venice and the surrounding communities.
- should try to write about anyone who works in information or having a bloget similar
- should tell you something the Italian Library Association.
- should say something the unions of public employees.
- should move publishers, even legally, with the court and civil cases, against an action that gives them material and moral damages.
- should send email protest to the newspapers (not just those Veneto), should be posted flyers and open letters to the boards of libraries and reading rooms.
- should be disseminated and post links like this (at the bottom of which will get updates on the event) and any other article, text or video to tell about him, about his intentions and eventual liberticide of his followers and companions.
Some writers ended up in the black list (along with others that are finished but there are supportive) have been discussing, we are coordinating, are evaluating what actions (including legal) to take. But only if you move them, the complaint will pass. The threat is for all: a writer, the reader, who cares about the multiplicity of points of view on any topic. If we underestimate the initiative because it is stupid, it creates a precedent. E 'initiative so as piùpericolosa is stupid.
