Italy too...

Posted to Poetry and Politics




it's interesting u mention this because i was just listening to a radio program like a half hour ago called "Crossing Continents" that set out to depict & anaylyse life in Italy one year after their first right-wing President in a loooong time was elected. It found out things like there are permanant volunteer guards who stand guard over Mussolini's tomb in shifts....something that has only come about this year with the rise of more fascist & right-wing tendancies...scary.
