«After six years one would think that the worst is over and that this constant work is ripening its fruits. Here, looking at what is happening out there, I believe that an evening like this is never as necessary as this year », the words of Francesca Vecchioni, president of Diversity. «The DMAs talk about visibility, which has nothing to do with ostentation, but means making what you name exist. For millennia, the invisibility weapon has proved to be the most effective tool for maintaining power. With surgical care, entire slices of humanity have been effectively erased, for ethnic reasons or to exclude those who are not deemed compliant, for sexual orientation, age, disability and of course for gender and gender identity. We cannot allow that to happen again. We cannot erase the people we should protect instead. Because it is certain: people in the dark disappear, but they do not cease to exist. For all this the DMAs are important: because where there are those who want to keep the darkness, they turn on the light ».
