And so we're back to April 25.
The April 25 has several names: Liberation Day, Anniversary of the liberation of Italy, the anniversary of the Resistance. we can say that the concept is clear enough:
in Italy 25 April is one of the most important days in the history of the Italian Republic, which occurred right at the end of Nazi occupation April 25, 1945, at the end of World War II.
Mind you: Liberation did not happen in all of Italy on the same day, the partisans and their allies did not have the time machine of Dr. Who. The date was chosen because its convention April 25 were liberated the cities of Turin and Milan. April 21 was liberated Bologna, Genoa on April 26 and April 28 in Venice.
Florence had freed herself long time before, September 8, 1944.
Reading the news today, is it any wonder if we are free indeed.
We have neo-fascists, racists, separatists, people who want to rewrite the Constitution and the Status of Workers, we have continuos attack to all the rights for which we fought, and the doubts are fierce implanted and there is no way to send them away.
Despite everything and everyone, for me April 25 has a great importance.
Not only because three of my grandparents are dead as partisans, and now someone wants to compare them to the fighters of Salò (I'm not hypocritical enough to claim that in front of death all people are equal and that also the fascists believed in what they did and fought for Italy ...I do not give a fuck), but for many other things that I will not explain them to you... if you need to explain 'cause you don't understand, it means that we have nothing totalk about.

Good April 25, good Liberation Day, good end of the war, good day of memories of past and current struggles.
