La Francia è la mia terra natìa, il Mali rappresenta la mia famiglia nonché lo scrigno dei miei affetti più cari. Questo è in sintesi il pensiero di Mohamed Sissoko alla domanda come da Africano vive l’Africa e quali siano i valori che lo legano alla culla dell’umanità. In una gelida mattina di inizio febbraio, nonostante il sole splenda alto nel cielo di Vinovo, nella provincia di Torino, insieme ad alcuni colleghi dello University College of Turin e della redazione di Finis Terrae, veniamo accolti presso il Media center della Juventus Football Club, dal calciatore maliano, perno del centrocampo bianconero, Mohamed Sissoko. Dall’alto dei suoi 187 cm, Mohamed ci abbraccia e ci sorride. Senza esitazioni diamo inizio ad una serena conversazione sul rapporto che intercorre tra il continente africano, i popoli e le etnie che lo abitano e le numerose culture che lo circondano.


Abbiamo chiesto di incontrare Mohamed quali promotori di un progetto ambizioso. Con l’aiuto delle più rinomate NGOs internazionali, l’obiettivo di Finis Terrae è infatti quello di esportare la nostra cultura sportiva e musicale in Africa, lungi da ogni forma di colonialismo intellettuale, ma semplicemente guidati dall’impulso di trasmettere ai popoli africani quegli strumenti necessari affinché anche essi abbiano l’opportunità di praticare ogni genere di sport e allo stesso modo di suonare musica, quali manifestazione della più ampia libertà di esprimere la propria personalità. Il nostro progetto trova subito il plauso gratificante di Mohamed che non esita ad offrirci tutta la sua disponibilità alla sostenibilità del progetto.

Aiutaci a diffondere questo APPELLO inoltrandolo ai tuoi amici


Cari amici,
dopo il terribile terremoto di Haiti, la Comunità di Sant’Egidio si è immediatamente mobilitata per portare aiuti di emergenza.

Una prima delegazione è arrivata a tre giorni dal sisma, portando acqua potabile, cibo, generi di prima necessità, che sono stati immediatamente distribuiti, insieme alla Comunità di Sant’Egidio haitiana, nei quartieri dove da tempo la Comunità aiutava i bambini con la Scuola della Pace.

Una seconda delegazione, da lunedì 25 gennaio, ha iniziato a distribuire ancora aiuti di emergenza e soprattutto tende, tanto necessarie in un momento di forti piogge.
La presenza dei giovani haitiani della Comunità e il sostegno dei vescovi assicurano una distribuzione capillare ed efficace.

A 7 km dal centro c’è la scuola Lakay Mwen - frequentata da circa 1500 bambini e ragazzi - che la Comunità sostiene da anni con le adozioni a distanza. Nello stesso complesso sorgevano anche delle casette che ospitavano qualche decina di anziani. L’edificio è gravemente lesionato: oggi bambini e anziani sono rifugiati sotto un tendone e hanno bisogno di tutto.

Vogliamo restare vicini a chi è stato colpito dal terremoto.

Oggi, con gli aiuti di emergenza, che proseguiranno per i prossimi due mesi.

Poi, appena possibile, con la costruzione di una casa famiglia per i bambini orfani, rimasti senza nulla.

James Cameron's science-fiction epic "Avatar” has been popular and getting many attentions among many countries and people in the world. Not only its successful and powerful visual arts (3-Dimentional imaging techniques) which this well-known director made with his technique team and resources contribute to the movie for getting popular, but also its main story line and episode which have very similarity with the history of Africa and Africans draw us to the unavoidable questions over our movie night.

In the movie “Avatar”, human has been discovered new planets in universe under their purposes to survive and find other resources for their own society, culture and markets. ‘Pandora’ is the planet in which, for human, there is undoubtedly precious natural resource, called ‘the Un-optainium’, underneath of the’ Nabi’s habitations. Human from earth has started the “peaceful invasion” to this land of harmony and begun showing their never-end greed into the natural resources in exchange of the sacrifice of the precious environments of the Pandora and Navis’.

Kiswahili: MAUAJI YA ALBINO TANZANIA
English : ALBINO KILLINGS IN TANZANIA

Kiswahili: Kwa muda mrefu sasa nchi yetu imekuwa ikikabiliwa na wimbi la mauaji ya wapendwa wetu na ndugu zetu Albino. Pamoja na vitendo vivyo kulaaniwa sana na wanajamii wengi wa Tanzania na hatua mbalimbali ambazo serikali imejaribu kuzichukua kupinga vitendo hivi, lakini bado wimbi la mauaji limezidi kuenea na kukua siku baada ya siku. Pia tatizo hili la mauaji ya albino limepelekea, maalbino kutokuwa na amani ndani ya nchi yao kwa sababu maisha yao yapo hatarini kila siku kimwili au kisaikolojia.
English: It is a long time now since our country have been distressed with this problem of killings of our beloved Albinos. Although these actions or killings have been highly condemned almost by the whole community of Tanzania and   various  steps have been taken by the government against these practices still the problem is spreading and growing day after day. This problem of albino killings  led Albinos in Tanzania not to have peace within their country because their life always are endangered either physically or psychologically.

Kiswahili: Tanzania imekuwa ikiendelea kutafuta ufumbuzi wa tatizo la mauaji ya albino, ambalo limesababisha mauaji ya watu wasiopungua 45 kwa kipindi cha miaka miwili iliyopita.Vitendo vya mauaji ya albino vimeenea zaidi katika maeneo ya kanda ya ziwa victoria, uovu huo umejikita katika mikoa ya Mwanza, Mara, Shinyanga na Kagera. Maeneo hayo ya historia ya kisirani cha kuwaua vikongwe katika miaka ya 1970, hasa kutokana na macho yao mekundu ambayo ilipelekea wao kufanya mauaji ya halaiki kwa mtu huyo wanayemhisi kuwa ni mchawi.

Approved by the National Assembly of France, August 26, 1789

世界人权宣言 1948年12月10日,联合国大会通过第217A(III)号决议并颁布


The representatives of the French people, organized as a National Assembly, believing that the ignorance, neglect, or contempt of the rights of man are the sole cause of public calamities and of the corruption of governments, have determined to set forth in a solemn declaration the natural, unalienable, and sacred rights of man, in order that this declaration, being constantly before all the members of the Social body, shall remind them continually of their rights and duties; in order that the acts of the legislative power, as well as those of the executive power, may be compared at any moment with the objects and purposes of all political institutions and may thus be more respected, and, lastly, in order that the grievances of the citizens, based hereafter upon simple and incontestable principles, shall tend to the maintenance of the constitution and redound to the happiness of all. Therefore the National Assembly recognizes and proclaims, in the presence and under the auspices of the Supreme Being, the following rights of man and of the citizen:

序 言
鉴于对人类家庭所有成员的固有尊严及其平等的和不移的权利的承认,乃是世界自由、正义与和平的基础,鉴于对人权的无视和侮蔑视已发展为野蛮暴行,这些 暴行玷污了人类的良心,而一个人人享有言论和信仰自由并免予恐惧和匮乏的世界的来临,已被宣布为普通人民的最高愿望,鉴于为使人类不致迫不得已铤而走险对 暴政和压迫进行反叛,有必要使人权受法治的保护,于有必要促进各国间友好关系的发展,鉴于各联合国国家的人民已在联合国宪章中重申他们对基本人权、人格尊 严和价值以及男女平等权利的信念,并决心促成较大自由中的社会进步和生活水平的改善,鉴于各会员国业已誓愿同联合国合作以促进对人权和基本自由的普遍尊重 和遵行,鉴于对这些权利和自由的普遍了解对于这个誓愿的充分实现具有很大的重要性,因此现在,大会发布这一世界人权宣言,作为所有人民和所有国家努力实现 的共同标准,以期每一个人和社会机构经常铭念本宣言,努力通过教诲和教育促进对权利和自由的尊重,并通过国家的和国际的渐进措施,使这些权利和自由在各会 员国本身人民及在其管辖下领土的人民中得到普遍和有效的承认和遵行。


الإعلان العالمي لحقـوق الإنسان

اعتُمد بموجب قرار الجمعية العامة 217 ألف (د-3) المؤرخ في 10 كانون الأول/ديسمبر 1948


في 10 كانون الأول/ديسمبر 1948، اعتمدت الجمعية العامة للأمم المتحدة الإعلان العالمي
 لحقوق الإنسان وأصدرته، ويرد النص الكامل للإعلان في الصفحات التالية. وبعد هذا الحدث
 التاريخي، طلبت الجمعية العامة من البلدان الأعضاء كافة أن تدعو لنص الإعلان و"أن تعمل
 على نشره وتوزيعه وقراءته وشرحه، ولاسيما في المدارس والمعاهد التعليمية الأخرى، دون
 أي تمييز بسبب المركز السياسي للبلدان أو الأقاليم".


لما كان الاعتراف بالكرامة المتأصلة في جميع أعضاء الأسرة البشرية
وبحقوقهم المتساوية
 الثابتة هو أساس الحرية والعدل والسلام في العالم
بأسره.

ولما كان تناسي حقوق الإنسان وازدراؤها قد أفضيا إلى أعمال همجية آذت الضمير
 الإنساني، وكان غاية ما يرنو إليه عامة البشر انبثاق عالم يتمتع
فيه الفرد بحرية القول
 والعقيدة ويتحرر من الفزع والفاقة
.

ولما كان من الضروري أن يتولى القانون حماية حقوق الإنسان لكيلا يضطر المرء
 آخر الأمر إلى التمرد على الاستبداد والظلم
.

ولما كانت شعوب الأمم المتحدة قد أكدت في الميثاق من جديد إيمانها بحقوق الإنسان
 الأساسية وبكرامة الفرد وقدره وبما للرجال والنساء من حقوق
متساوية وحزمت أمرها
 على أن تدفع بالرقي الاجتماعي قدماً وأن ترفع مستوى
الحياة في جو من الحرية أفسح.

ولما كانت الدول الأعضاء قد تعهدت بالتعاون مع الأمم المتحدة على ضمان اطراد مراعاة
 حقوق الإنسان والحريات الأساسية واحترامها
.

ولما كان للإدراك العام لهذه الحقوق والحريات الأهمية الكبرى للوفاء التام بهذا التعهد.

فإن الجمعية العامة تنادي بهذا الإعلان العالمي لحقوق الإنسان على أنه المستوى المشترك الذي
 ينبغي أن تستهدفه كافة الشعوب والأمم حتى يسعى كل
فرد وهيئة في المجتمع، واضعين على
 الدوام هذا الإعلان نصب أعينهم، إلى
توطيد احترام هذه الحقوق والحريات عن طريق
 التعليم والتربية واتخاذ
إجراءات مطردة، قومية وعالمية، لضمان الاعتراف بها ومراعاتها
 بصورة عالمية
فعالة بين الدول الأعضاء ذاتها وشعوب البقاع الخاضعة لسلطانها.
