#November 25 International Day Against Violence Against Women

A Tutte Le Donne di Alda Merini

 

Fragile, opulenta donna, matrice del paradiso

sei un granello di colpa

anche agli occhi di Dio

malgrado le tue sante guerre

per l’emancipazione.

Spaccarono la tua bellezza

e rimane uno scheletro d’amore

che però grida ancora vendetta

e soltanto tu riesci

ancora a piangere,

poi ti volgi e vedi ancora i tuoi figli,

poi ti volti e non sai ancora dire

e taci meravigliata

e allora diventi grande come la terra

e innalzi il tuo canto d’amore.

 

Violence against women, a phenomenon too widespread but too little denounced.Only one-third of the victims of violence committed by the partner and one-fourth of the victims of violence by non-partner contacted the police or some other organization, such as victim assistance associations .To make the complaint and the demand for help so difficult is almost always "Feelings of shame and embarrassment" tied to negative cultures of the "victims blame ".
