investigation on the new racist wave in Italy
-
documentary created by Carolina Borella, Franco Capone, Andrea Minoglio
-
People did a chorus: '' We don't want them! ''
-
The are too many gypsies, people aren't safe in their own homes, on the street,
-
Old man: The gypsies have never worked in their lives
-
Young guy: The major part of them live here only to commit theft
-
lady: They don't contribute to the community, they exploit community and stop! Nothing else!
-
Old Lady: I hope that they will go away from italy. They dirty all over , steal.....
-
The other old lady: ...... steal, they make noise, they pretend to be plumbers or gas engineers to steal the valuables in our homes.
-
Black guy: I'm not racist, but i believe that they are weird
-
romanian guy with the hat: They live here only to commit theft. Why they take an honest job like me ?
-
Their race is not a problem, the problem is that they fail to integrate in our society.
-
If we do not teach them to integrate into our society, they roam all day and will continue to steal first in one place and then in another.
-
The old man in the upper right corner: Gypsies are impossible to eradicate from our society.
-
Gypsies are a serious problem, recently I have seen that have invaded other areas of the city
-
Young lady: The more time passes and they will invade all the territories
-
The girl in the upper left corner: We've been invaded! is something unacceptable !
-
Old lady: Gypsies, Moroccans, English, no the British no, I said wrong nationality, sorry. But the first 2 races get dirty all over, worse than pigs in a sty!

-
We are almost 600 people, we don't want to fight here!
-
Lavinia Costache coltural mediator: We are sure that there are lots of children, should there be officially 275.
-
Policewoman: Let's take the time to the gypsies's families who live in these slums to dismantle their shacks and to take their things,and move to this side of the court .Then will come the bulldozers to clean up this place.
-
Gypsies are dirty
-
This is a land that has a high level of pollution, the municipality had to reclaim more than 20 years ago. Workers did the corings
-
they saw what was inside the ground, here was the ''Montecatini industry'', so they have left everything exactly as it was before the corings. The citizens of this district has always breathe this pestilential smell that came from these slums
-
The only concern of local politicians was to find a new place to move these poor people
-
Gypsy: Italians have brought this garbage here! Italians brought their garbage here, they throw it from trucks, cars, etc. ...
-
Policewoman: It often happens, that Italians do not know where to dispose of waste or building materials, therefore their go to throw them garbage in the Gypsies's slums.
-
Italians are taking advantage of the poor condition of these places, in fact, behind you, there are wastes that are not typical of the Gypsies, but are debris that are commonly found in every Italian house or objects that remain after a moving house and are left here .
-
President of the association '' Aven Amtza'' : In east Europe, but also in other countries, Gypsies live in their homes, occasionally happens here too, and in this houses they have showers, tubs, sinks, like a regular house.
-
But if you live in an area along with 200 people and there is only one water tap in whole the field , what can you do?
-
Petre Stoican, Gypsy carrier , Triboniano St., Milan: '' When i catch the bus or tram, I'm far away from other people because, I know that by working and sweating all day long i have an unpleasant smell and i create discomfort to Italians.
-
Eduard, gyspy child ,Pavia: '' When I go to the oratory of S.pietro, the other children tease me. They tell me: '' You stink! You suck! Look at that ugly pair of shoes that he has! ''
-
They tell me all day long: '' Go away jerk ''
-
The first calumny that is said on the other race is that they are dirty
-
Djana Pavlovic, actress and cultural mediator: There's 500 people in Milan , right now, maybe even more than 500, that living in the tents, in the mud, in the dumps or near to train stations
-
Often the tents in which these people live have cuts or are broke, because when the police evacuate the slums, the cops cut the tents.
-
Policeman1: Hey colleague, where we lead them?
-
Milan, Gyspies's slums in Triboniano Street
-
Policeman 2: They have to go away, come on! go away!
-
Gypsy: Don't push me! I look like a disabled person who needs a boost or something?
-
Quarto Oggiaro? What the hell are you saying ?! I have a residence here, not in Quarto Oggiaro!
-
So if they have 4 kids that go to school, and kids are 3 or 4 years old or they have age from 5 to 7 years old, and they living in poverty , the parents can't take care of them children and they are forced to let them children become ill with pneumonia or other disease.
-
No one is scandalized from this things , no one asks the question, '' How it's possible that in Milan the children are forced to sleep on the street? '' .
