Europeans, Guillermo Mariotto: “let’s fight racism and start with small gestures’

“I find that a context such as Europeans is perfectly suited to combat racism even with a small gesture. Let’s kneel down, let’s fight, let’s not remain passive, racism brings wars, violence, brings harm to all the nations that have practiced it”. This is what the designer Guillermo Mariotto told Adnkronos, convinced that the choice by the Azzurri to kneel before the match against Belgium is a shareable act. “I find, among other things, the context of the stadium very suitable. Someone spoke of exploitation, of speculation … but the media have changed – he added – And let’s not forget that the football public is not immune to acts of racism. , especially from the stands. How many insults against some players for the color of their skin, for the countries of origin -he concluded- But if they play in European teams it means that they often work better “.
