Racist prejudices and hagiography of the violent: by recounting the murder of Willy Monteiro Duarte a part of Italian journalism has once again given its worst moment
Unsurpassed Corriere della Sera who, describing one of those arrested for the death of Willy Monteiro Duarte, writes: “But Gabriele Bianchi, one of the four arrested (along with his brother Marco and two others) for the murder of Willy Monteiro Duarte in Colleferro, had He proposed even a more concrete problem: how to get by, prepare lunch and dinner. As a smart and concrete young man, he knew: combat sports could not provide him with financial security. Thus he had invented a less warlike life, the of the greengrocer ».
Awake and concrete young man: the hagiography of the violent is lately the most popular and every detail useful to belittle the incident seems highly sought after by certain journalists to become a beautiful article. However, we are talking about criminals, known to all as violent, sympathetic to the extreme right, and who voluntarily get into fights. This little detail is omitted.
After all, the facts say that Willy Monteiro Duarte was killed with kicks and punches, obviously many against one, as befits cowards, and he was left there, dead on the ground. “Fight”, some newspapers write: as if it were a “fight” to slaughter a boy who weighs half your weight with your friends and against whom you use your learned fighting techniques to be even more effective in your violence.
Then there is the story that Willy Monteiro Duarte and his family were “well integrated”. Please, would anyone like to tell us what information this is? If they had not been “well integrated”, would such a murder have been more imaginable?
Words are important, Nanni Moretti said, and she was right.
Finally, there is the narrative of those who want us to believe that Willy found himself “in the wrong place at the wrong time.” This is also false: Willy saw fit to defend a friend from the heat and violence of these professional thugs. Willy has decided to be selfless and supportive in an area where it is clearly a luxury that he cannot afford. Willy has come across one of those neighborhoods packed with violence from a small group of professional scouts who would like to dominate the territory. Willy did the right thing. We are the ones who made them find the wrong country.
Have a nice tuesday
