27 gennaio 2024
On the dates of January 29 and 30, 2024, all students of the fourth and fifth grades in sections A and B of the ICT Address will take part in an educational meeting called Oblivion held by Mr. Andrea Cappuccitti. The event belongs to the initiatives organized on the occasion of Memorial Day, in remembrance of the extermination and persecution of the Jewish people and Italian military and political deportees to Nazi camps.
CONTENTS
With Law No. 211 of July 20, 2000, Italy established the “Memorial Day in remembrance of the extermination and persecution of the Jewish people and of Italian military and political deportees to Nazi camps,” which falls every January 27, a date chosen symbolically because, on that day in 1945, the gates of the Auschwitz camps were torn down and the whole world was confronted with the horrors and crimes committed by Nazi-Fascism. The establishment of this anniversary is based on the desire to keep alive the historical memory and reflection on the Shoah and the persecutions that affected, before and during World War II, the Jewish people, military deportees, Roma and Sinti, Jehovah's Witnesses, homosexuals, people with disabilities and opponents of the regime and the extermination project. Millions of human beings were deprived of their dignity and social, civil and political rights, of their very lives. From the tragic nature of those events comes the ethical duty to transmit to young people the value of Remembrance and to provide them with the tools to learn about the causes and painful consequences of the Shoah. Freud School is the environment in which each individual's consciousness and sphere of values are formed through confrontation with the richness of cultural diversity. Freud School has the tools to stand against these phenomena and to convey the importance of opposing all discrimination whether religious, ethnic or racial.
The meeting will focus specifically on the following macro-themes:
- How to deal with the thorny issue of forgetting: conveying to others what we stand for in the civil society in which we live
- The issue of denied rights
- Analysis of Article 22 of the Constitution
- The protection of the right to a name and the right to personal identity
OBJECTIVES AND GOALS
To sensitize students to reflection and sensitivity on an indelible page of human history
- Educating civic sense
- Foster a sense of critical thinking and responsibility
