The 'November 8 we'll be square in Reggio Emilia. We want this square is filled with 
people and organizations, we want to be filled with those of solidarity, social justice 
and freedom are its flag. ---- Outside the repression out of Pantani ---- On November 8 
we'll be square in Reggio Emilia. We want this square is filled with people and 
organizations, we want to be filled with those of solidarity, social justice and freedom 
are its flag. ---- We deeply unfair and disproportionate that 15 companions are forced 
obligation to sign, then the restriction of personal freedom for what happened April 25 in 
Reggio Emilia, when a procession of anti-fascists objected to the presence in the city's 
leaders xenophobic and racist League, Matteo Salvini. ---- That day was nothing so serious 
as to persecute comrades, whom, as always, our solidarity. The explanation of what is 
happening in Reggio Emilia, as in other cities of Italy is that the tightening of social 
control and punishment for those who do not bow to the dictates of the "Nation Party" has 
a preventive function. The demagogues of the government know that they are producing 
compression social destruction of poverty and rights guaranteed by law in favor of capital 
accumulation will have to deal with the likely social and political response. Not 
otherwise explain why so much alacrity in suppressing behaviors that are considered to be 
in keeping with the social and political spectrum that characterizes the phase of capital 
restructuring. It is an old strategy and proven to be accused as a criminal expression of 
ideas "non-aligned", as in the case of the companions subjected to repression. 
Unfortunately, these dynamics serve to legitimize the dominant point of view.

But we know that the problem is political, cultural and social. We can not ignore the fact 
that in Reggio Emilia, but not limited to, privatization is synonymous with the mafia, 
that contracts downward in all areas of economic, produce poverty and insecurity for the 
workers and for those who would take advantage of social services. But we also know that 
the exceptions to the employment contracts and cancellation of the supplementary, the 
collapse of collective bargaining, are one with the privatization of public services, the 
reform of pensions Fornero, with the tax cut to businesses, with the privatization of 
public health and the destruction of public schools. And as more and more clearly looming 
arms race and the participation in the wars that are on our doorstep, the cancellation of 
democracy - the first at work and then also that formal - is crucial to the realization of 
that reform of the authoritarian capitalist accumulation which needs to avoid any social 
backlash, as it does pay to workers and lower classes the costs of its restructuring.

It is required to take note of what occurred in the political and social change and act 
accordingly: first build spaces for discussion are essential to develop a collective 
possibility of a social and political response able to express our point of view, a point 
of view of the class, that of the workers and the unemployed, the percent that undermines 
the social question which articles collective responses to the destruction of public 
resources, the environmental destruction in constant expansion. We therefore believe that 
future battles we all can be successful only if we are able, even in Reggio Emilia, build 
and expand an existing criticism that has as its premise the social alternative to the 
dominant capitalist model, to begin a journey that very humbly but also a lot of 
determination, is immediately to the common practices and the experiences of 
self-management, grassroots, democratic and libertarian in Reggio Emilia are present and 
active in the area.
