publish below an extract from an email just received from a friend who, as a psychologist working in the Roman province, live every day on the ground the contradictions, difficulties, and the repercussions that a bad policy triggers in people's lives.
"I saw the blog and will send a draft of a leaflet prepared by my colleagues for a pre-election meeting.
I think anyone doing this work can not implicitly do not do politics every minute of his day."
those are ... social work ...
We social workers and members of cooperatives and social organizations, are the ones that the social contradictions and precarious the face every day in the field as well as live on their skin, are the ones who hear the word security immediately think of job security, safety and rights of a house, we those who know that a road is to secure more social and more community participation and more police, we are very often those who work with social exclusion and we know what the stereotypes and media campaigns pushing these people are the ones who expected to meet people from other countries in the world is an opportunity before a problem, we are also those who, by crossing stories of migrants, we know that they did not come here for tourism, but often to poverty, are the ones who are tired of a welfare assistance for the poor and we would like welfare for the citizens because we are also those who think that people do not become thanks to the bank account. We are those who do not believe in charity, but social work training and recognized in their rights, are the ones who think that laws like the 180 and 194 must be applied and not erased, we are the ones who think that even if there is the Vatican in Rome , Rome is not the Vatican, but we are also those who think that politics is a collective project and give meaning to our future and not marketing and surveys. So we've decided to talk about social policies and ask some candidates that come from our industry to continue, in line with us we will not allow social battles go off April 14 with the spotlight of the campaign.
