“The sleep of reason generates monsters: the twentieth century – underline the promoters of the event – produced the aberrant idea of ​​the final solution, the extermination of the Jewish people with its meticulous implementation by willing executioners in every corner of Europe and the our time still sees in the war of conquest in Ukraine, in hatred and violence against women, in the theocracies of Iran and Afghanistan and in the persistence of societies dominated by dictatorships, with the disappearance of individual freedoms, in the resurgence of nationalisms and neo-fascisms, of hatred towards the different by ethnicity, gender and sexual orientation and again after a century by race. Flashes of light cross the darkness: a street named after an unjust becomes a street of the just among the nations, thousands of women show their faces in Persiaat the cost of prison and their lives, men and women have been resisting the senseless war in Ukraine for a year and we still manage to keep the torch high in memory and not forget what happened, because, in the words of Primo Levi it can happen again, because it is happening again.”
