Pink Week: manifesto

 

 

Changing politics? let's test(tube) it.

IF the TRA law (regulation of reproductive technologies) gives you nausea,
if you don't feel effected, but you could be, if you think that desire should be the only law, if you just want to have fun,
don't miss the Pink Week.
This week you can display your bright rose optimism, wearing something pink.
we all want a more rosy future!
so, let's start working for it! no money in our purses, still we wear pink moneybags. no bricks or concrete, only pink nail enamel!
Let the pink in us come out, let's paint pink everything around us!
Pink thinking can be applied to many stylish occasions of protest, it functions as a protective screen against heavy objects.
It filters in the air as perfume, it catches the eye as a light beam in the shade.
With a simple pink gesture, you can be in the spotlight. Empowerpink. From the center, we can address the core of the question, freedom. Only our freedom gives us a rosy future.

Today, in Italy, between soccer games and heat waves, a law was passed, aimed at locking up our bodies, controlling them in the most obscurantist ways.
In regard to ART (assisted reproductive technologies), the minister of health Sirchia defines women "a container for the wealth of community: children"
-so Sirchia said! of course, in his view, the baby, even if just an embryo, has more rights than its container. This discourse is a joke, it won't take back a 100 years of women's rights.

But the implications of such discourse, even if laughable, worth listening to:
for example: how can you feel like you deserve a raise on your wage when you know an embryo has more rights than you?
So, if we want to keep laughing, we must protest now (it's also fashionable!). While waiting for a referendum that invalidates this law (the form should be Pink), let's keep up our morale with the Pink Week. To fight does not always means a heavy involvement, it can be fun, unless you bump into the pink. During Pink Week let's display the pink in us on nails, hair, lips, clothing or ties.
Let's write on the walls, decorate the city gates with pink ribbon. Let's drink rose grappa..each one with her ideas, many people. to ban this obscurantism, to laugh at the usual misery of Italian politics,
so out of style.

Above us, over the pink spectacle, Spider Mom. the Spider mother teaching us about a new style for our pink future: networking. if the web is undone, someone else will rebuild it. come meet Spider Mom at the Bologna streetrave, June 29.
Continue to be pink, and you will recognize other like you, who believe in a rosy future. Bologna, 29 giugno al 6 luglio, Pink Week. for a rosy future.
