We return to the streets on Saturday. This time to ask 'If not now when? "Thousands of citizens who will be felt in Rome and at least eighty other cities, to defend the Constitution. But after Berlusconi's famous phrase - "the school instills principles other than those of families" - the connection was immediate: the public school if something inculcates inculcating the values \u200b\u200bof the Constitution which, inter alia, Article 33 protects freedom of teaching. So the event, which leaves at 14 in Rome from Republic Square to get to Piazza del Popolo ( www.adifesadellacostituzione.it ), the time has changed its tune: defend the Constitution and defending the school. The public, what form - and should continue to be - the citizens and the ruling class of this country that welcomes and grow tomorrow who will ballot the tab for a party of right or a left-wing party. This is the idea of \u200b\u200bwho has called the initiative.
The signatures are in avalanche by Pd Farefuturo, dall'Idv to Sel and the Federation of the Left. And then CGIL, Legambiente, Free and Emrgency. The organizers, just as the square of the women of February 13 - the same as the sites - calls for the participation of all, beyond the political contradictions. So much so that one of the slogans is "all to all." Funny, but problematic politically. The "plot" woven by the square of the 'If not now when', moreover, is clear. Permanent mobilization against Prime Minister Berlusconi, and all that represents the culture of this country. Shots of indignation. Hope that the majority of government - patched with little crystalline methods - finally goes down. But what to do afterwards? There is nothing programmatic. And that, many say, the bottom is good. But it is also true that this story is aimed at something quite specific: to prepare the ground for a government of "broad agreements," against whom, however - suspected - would be ready to take a lot of people take to the streets, and fell in the square 13.
This time however, the question of public schools is difficult to fold 'all with all. " It touches a wound is still warm, open, bleeding. The reform of the university, just passed with the votes of the Future and Freedom believe that tomorrow will march together with CGIL, Pd and so much of civil society. And the dramatic cuts the school - which this year will go under the gauntlet the "third tier" of cuts - against which, also opposed Fini said nothing but when it came to spend the little money available for private schools.
Contradictions weighing, as far as Piazza della Repubblica is full, colorful, confident and determined. So much so that university students are there. And they decided to pull out elsewhere. Conoscensa network, Link Uds, Uniriot, universities up in arms - in short, the bulk of the Wave - will gather at La Sapienza, Piazzale Aldo Moro in, to 12.30. From there, start with a procession that still do not know where it will end. "No opposition to those who take to the streets to defend the Constitution and against the words of Silvio Berlusconi - said Claudio Riccio's network of knowledge - but we disagree on the merits in the method. We read an editorial in La Repubblica that "back to the Wave." But when ever? The Republic shall decide? Places of democracy still exist, such as the student assemblies where we discuss before deciding. But most of all - continues Riccio - we believe that public education is not a slogan, it's something that lives daily to the skin of students and teachers. We should not pull out with Fabio Granata, who voted in favor of reform Gelmini. What amazes us is that there are initials of students who participated in the movement and then participating in a demonstration that even explicitly calls for more money for school and university. "
The reference is to Udu and Student Network, the only two initials student participating in the parade "official". Meanwhile, the Students Union, making towards a republic, has published ten questions to try to define what it means in practice to defend public education. For example: "Our institutions are collapsing, 50% of the schools is not a rule, only with an investment plan for € 14 billion will solve the problem of school. You agree to vote in parliament the adequate funding of the Law 23/96 for the safety of school buildings? "Or, "At school the only religion that is taught is the Catholic religion. Would you be willing to vote a measure in respect of the secular state, aimed at a school that teaches the history of religions? ". I wonder if everyone, absolutely everyone, will decide to respond?
