ITALY - Demonstration against racist attack

In Macerata, northern Italy, an anti - racism demonstration was canceled on Thursday the 8th. The reason should have been that it could lead to "violent clashes" between left and right forces. The reason therefore was that on Saturday the 3rd of February a man with connections to "far-right" party Forza Nuova has gone on several Africans with a firearm and injured six people.

But on Saturday the 10th of February anti-fascists and various left-wing forces went into the streets in several cities despite this "demonstration ban". Several thousand protesters demonstrated against this racist attack of the fascist. In Piacenza, there was even a violent confrontation with the police. The militant anti-fascists even routed the police!

It is right to demonstrate against such fascists! Death to fascism! Its right to rebell!
