Dear friends and benefactors, I am writing
briefly to inform you that our work continues despite the heat to the ACS. The cases are in need of the time. With the money that you have sent us in the past we have helped 2009:
444 new immigrants coming from Africa, Asia, South America and most other East European immigrants who arrived in Italy in the last 5 years.
fifty families in serious financial difficulties;
several single mothers who, with great sacrifice they have decided to continue their maternity
forty university students in Africa with a small monthly fee;
fifty immigrants for English classes.
seventy computer science students, with the possibility to obtain the ECDL European license;
Twenty immigrants need to use our legal services;
A thousand dental visits for people newly arrived in Italy.
many hundreds of interviews in our welcoming service to people just arrivate.Credo that to understand the transformation underway in the global world we need to hear what he says Frei Bento in an article in the Brazilian weekly "Correio da Cidadania (No. 519) with TNT: "Europe. First World? "
decrepit
EUROPE Western Europe has already reached the peak of its wealth? What is the future of an old continent that produces more science and technology and moved its industries in poor countries where labor is cheaper? The impression is that Europe is in a stalemate. Who cares only to maintain its comfort. I've lost the illusion of utopia, the intellectual vigor, the density of the faith. That was the Christian values \u200b\u200bin this society that enhances the competitiveness of solidarity above, and which invests millions in biogenetic and cosmetics, indifferent to the suffering of four billion human beings who, according to the UN, live below the line poverty?
Why cause so much fear immigrants? Are potential terrorists? Those who colonized their land and sucked their natural and mineral wealth, leaving behind a trail of misery and pain? Why Western Europe looks to Latin America through the prism of prejudice? ... Why are the temples
European Catholics seem to welcome more tourists than the faithful? ... Why so many Europeans are mobilizing against diseases (AIDS, cancer ...), accidents (road work) and violence (terrorism, war, murder ...) but are indifferent in front of the main cause of premature death, hunger? What's the future ... wish the European Christians for Europe and the world? ... What signs of effective solidarity with the poor of Africa, Asia and Latin America are given by European Christians?
effacing the indigenous roots of America is a cynical way groped to cover the genocide committed by the enterprise of colonialism. If there is a tragic reality that must be correctly applied the term "holocaust" in America. During the first century of colonization were murdered millions of Indians. In the name of civilization and the Christian faith ... ... The European ethnocentrism, even today, that America is to prevent recognition of its identity, its culture and its values. ... The other appeared to be different, strange as threatening, the unusual as cursed.
civilized Europe?
There is talk of late in Latin America, poverty which condemns to a life unworthy of 200 million people out of a total of 500 million, massacres of peasants in Guatemala and street children in Brazil. But what is this in front of the number of deaths of the two great world wars that took Europe as a theater, the legacy of genocide and misery left by the Europeans in their colonies in Africa or to the current unfair trade relations between North and South world?
There is another pedagogical principle that Europe was not able to absorb: the head thinking where's feet rest. The
Eurocentrism is senile disease of a culture that has distanced itself from reality and the universe which, therefore, is placed above the real life. It was in the Germany of Kant, Beethoven and Einstein that Hitler found the culture medium resulted in the atrocities of Nazism. Portugal has had Salazar, Mussolini's Italy, Franco in Spain ... and now we can say that Western Europe is the place par excellence of democracy?
