WE HAVE A FIGHT TO FIGHT

 

Hello everyone!  I’m Francesco G. and this is my new post. I’m happy to share it with you right today, on 2^nd June, when we celebrate the birth of the Italian Republic (2^nd June 1946). I usually speak about history, especially ancient history, but today I would like to tell you something about anti-fascism.  I will not speak about my political alignment because in order to discuss this topic it is not important to know if I’m a liberal, a leftist or a centrist.  I actually think it is a theme that should find anyone involved and interested. It is about our rights and our freedom.

DREAMING OF FREEDOM

Freedom is a condition in which people have the opportunity to speak, act and pursue happiness without unnecessary external restrictions. Freedom is important because it leads to enhanced expressions of creativity and original thought, increased productivity, and an overall high quality of life.

Freedom must be redefined and defended anew by each generation.

History champions the stories of great people who have changed the world by advocating and fighting for human and civil rights.

YEONMI PARK, THE GIRL WHO CONQUERED HER LIBERTY

“I am most grateful for two things: that I was born in North Korea  and that I escaped from North Korea.”

Who is Yeonmi Park?
