In 1969, New York, in the rebellion at the Stonewall Inn gay bar in Greenwich Village, made history of the LGBTQ movement. On the night of June 27, the police rushed there, as did dozens of times, so arrogant and threatening. Unlike other times, the further oppression this time produced a chain reaction. Sylvia Rivera, Transgender, along with many, many others opposed to this further outrage with three days of clashes, the start of protests and complaints from New York that first swept the United States and then throughout the world. Today, the Stonewall rebellion is universally recognized as the date of birth of the liberation movement of lesbian, gay and transgender / transsexual.
Forty years from that date the RomaPride 2009 and recalls that moment in history as defending our collective memory, using the resources essential to any Pride and congenial, a parade full of music, fun, ideas, liberation, control and creativity along with demands, political demands and opposition to all oppression and recognition of any denial of basic civil rights. The Pride is the moment of greatest visibility of the LGBTQ community and stands as the crowning of a political activity and made up of everyday social relations with the institutions, political forces and with civil society, with the media to give space to the requests for renewal of society. Pride can be found in the convergent and united, peaceful and purposeful in a procession, all the people and the subjectivity and political associations that are struggling to build an inclusive, secular, open, supportive, able to accommodate diversity and to flee by the approval refusing loudly and with conviction attempts to transform individuals in the same subject, property, obedient, silent and hidden. "Free all, free of all" is the slogan of RomaPride 2009.
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender / transsexual, queer e tante/i donne e uomini libere/i sfileranno a Roma come accade ogni anno sin dal 1994. Il 13 giugno 2009 un corteo forte di idee, libero, gioioso, pacifico, orgoglioso e rivendicativo attraverserà le strade della Capitale. E come sempre il RomaPride sarà di tutti/e coloro che vorranno viverlo con entusiasmo, passione e gioia di vivere, per la piena visibilità delle scelte di vita, che devono essere libere per tutti e tutte.
Al grido di “Liberi tutti, libere tutte” il corteo attraverserà la città con le stesse rivendicazioni degli ultimi anni, che si possono riassumere in Parità, Dignità, Laicità. Queste parole costituiscono l’essenza delle richieste e delle esigenze dei cittadini and towns lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender / transsexual and queer, but they also represent the foundation of a free democracy and mature at this moment in our history and politics seem to leave the country every day. The complete indifference to the demands and needs of the LGBTQ community, unlike other European countries where the movement has reached at least the legislative goals for LGBTQ people, their relationships, their families, their sons and their daughters , highlight the atmosphere of repression and clerical Italy and put our country in last place in a ranking that does him honor.
In this phase of Italian history, humiliated by a climate of ideological fundamentalism, liberation concerns everybody. Also, it follows the law on assisted procreation, ideological and not meaningful, as is also said the Constitutional Court, the choices of the government with respect to ethical issues, back and pushed the idea of \u200b\u200ba unique moral state, as it promises to last with the law on living wills, which would require all how to die. But also the safety interventions are not worthy of a responsible country, united and pluralistic, so free, when you choose the private or uncontrollable patrols was blamed on foreign citizens, or generally to other / and be a source and problem of violence and insecurity. To favor certain of these operations is the ongoing, serious and inappropriate political interference by the Vatican hierarchy that strong of a presence in cross-party, they use religious sentiment to preclude even the mere discussion of laws against homophobia, and lesbofobia transphobia and to protect the rights of the LGBTQ community. We then report how the lack of secularism has negative and sometimes dramatic effects on our lives.
With regard to social rights, civil and human rights protests of the LGBTQ community is and will be vibrant and compelling. The current government is reluctant to any debate on civil and social rights, despite the common sense of citizens and city is changing in positive than the LGBTQ issues and requests, and is far more secular and open in general. The proposed cultural and conservatives from the right on these issues are used in an instrumental and hypocritical: the LGBTQ community is often accused of claiming rights that do not belong to them, to undermine civil society with the application for recognition of same-sex couples and laws that protect, to undermine and weaken the family "natural" with the recognition of new families, including those omogenitoriali.
then continues down a guilty legislative oversight for a large proportion of citizens and Italian citizens, despite the LGBTQ people continue to have the same lives and the same needs.
The message to the institutional policy must be clear: the positions of the PDL retrograde react strongly with our protest. Moreover we repeat our criticisms of the Democratic Party for its warm and ambiguous positions on the issue of civil and social rights. So to all political forces without exception require more attention than to stimuli and suggestions that come from individual and / citizens / and, associations, networks and movements. Our unit of time control and visibility, the Pride is an opportunity for all political forces to take a position on ethical issues, social and civil rights which is not now only LGBTQ people, but invest the entire citizenry.
RomaPride The 2009 is, from this point of view, the place where they have citizenship rights for all and all, the event with the highest exposure of bodies and ideas, freedom, solidarity, diversity of sexual orientations, of 'gender identity and the fantastic wealth of ethnic, religious and political.
"Free all, free of all" claims anti-fascism, anti-sexism and anti-racism as the indispensable and central to any struggle for liberation and reaffirms its peaceful nature and combating violence in all its forms, stating her ditotalitarismo vocation against all forms, be it theocratic, economic, political or social. The RomaPride 2009 also reaffirms its undeniable and inescapable affinity with the demands of the feminist movement by stating that the fate of a progressive society and evolved passes through women's self-determination and full citizenship for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender / transsexual and queer. The
RomaPride 2009, with its peaceful march, is a form of self defense for all lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender / transsexual and queer homophobia, and transphobia from lesbofobia, as well as reiterates his defense and physical violence termination of patriarchal system as a cause of violence against women, children, disabled people, lesbians, gays and transgender people / transsexuals.
