“It Peppino Impastato memories in the streets of Lucca» – Il Tirreno

LUCCA. Yesterday was a sad anniversary twice in one day symbol of the “Night of the Republic”, with the discovery of the lifeless bodies of the Prime Minister Aldo Moro, in Rome, and the militant Proletarian Democracy Peppino Impastato, Cinisi, Sicily.

A name, that of the young victims of the Sicilian Mafia, remained unknown to our place names, as pointed out by Italian Left of Lucca, asking you to name a street in Peppino Impastato

“We would have liked , the anniversary of the barbaric murder of Peppino Impastato by the mafia – writes Italian Left – leave a flower in the streets, in the squares and in our province remember this brave man, who died just three decades, torn apart by a bomb, because he had dared to challenge our thing, dileggiarne leaders, shouting from his Radio Aut that “the mafia is a mountain of shit.” We will do so in Barga, in the park Impastato at Piangrande. We also wanted to do it in the main city, or in Capannori, or in the Plains. But, apparently (and shoot to be wrong), there are no other roads or squares or parks dedicated to him in our territories. Which is a shame, because a street named Peppino Impastato

is not a simple place names change, but a symbol. “

Hence the request” to the institutions, in these times of “structural plans”, to put remedy this oversight, that Peppino Impastato can remain alive in the memory of our and future generations. “
