The analysis proposed focuses on the figure of Giuseppe Soncini, who was able to create a network of contacts and friendships, which led to the birth of health, social and political projects. The archival study is centered on the numerous letters and personal communications between Giuseppe Soncini and the representatives of FRELIMO, in particular Marcelino dos Santos, Samora Machel and Oscar Monteiro, to try to understand how the city of Reggio Emilia becomes a point of reference and support for FRELIMO. The period taken into consideration goes from the beginning of the first exchanges of letters in the 1960s, to the period just after the National Solidarity Conference (held in Reggio Emilia in 1973), in particular until the independence of Mozambique. Furthermore, it was decided to question the presence of traces of that story dating back to almost fifty years ago, therefore set in our contemporaneity, in order to try and understand what remains today of that historical period called “the great season of international solidarity”.

In this article the authors aim at showing how an “anomalous” international and very intense cooperation between Italy and Mozambique was born. In fact, Italy has not a strong colonial tradition, especially in Mozambique, so it seems interesting to try to understand the reason why this former Portuguese colony has become the Italian most important partner in its cooperation activity. This analysis is based on the main hypothesis related to the birth of international bilateral cooperation: they have been seriously considered in order to explain the origin of this strange relationship, but they cannot completely clarify this particular case.

(+39) 0522 456677 [email protected] Reggio Emilia, mercoledì 12 febbraio 2020 Cordoglio del sindaco Luca Vecchi per la scomparsa di Marcelino Dos Santos, leader dell’indipendenza del Mozambico e dei popoli dell’Africa australe A Reggio in varie occasioni, fu amico di Renzo Bonazzi e Giuseppe Soncini E' scomparso ieri, 11 febbraio, all’età di 92 anni, Marcelino Dos Santos, uno dei più importanti leader della lotta per l'indipendenza dei popoli africani e leader - insieme a Amilcar Cabral, Eduardo Mondlane, Agostinho Neto, Kenneth Kaunda, Oliver Tambo, Samora Machel e Nelson Mandela - della liberazione dei popoli dell'Africa Autrale. Figura chiave per le relazioni di Reggio Emilia con il Mozambico, insieme a Oscar Monteiro, Dos Santos fu, esattamente 50 anni fa, il primo rappresentante del Mozambico a entrare in Sala del Tricolore e iniziare la storia di cooperazione che continua anche oggi. “Marceliono Dos Santos – afferma il sindaco di Reggio Emilia, Luca vecchi - è stato una personalità fondamentale, insieme a Renzo Bonazzi e Giuseppe Soncini, nel gettare le basi di un'amicizia che continua e che oggi vede Reggio Emilia protagonista riconosciuta a livello europeo e nazionale della cooperazione con il Mozambico. Nelle prossime settimane avvieremo uno dei più grandi progetti finanziati dall’Europa con la città di Pemba. Ci lascia uno dei grandi protagonisti della storia africana del Novecento, che la nostra città ha potuto accogliere in diverse e importanti occasioni di incontro, dialogo e cooperazione”. Il rapporto tra Marcelino Dos Santos e Reggio Emilia avviene nel 1963, a Varsavia, dove l’allora sindaco di Reggio Emilia, Renzo Bonazzi, incontra il leader africano, con il quale intrattiene, nel corso degli anni Sessanta una corrispondenza.

  • Il Comune Di Reggio Emilia E L'africa, 40 Anni Di Storia
    Il Comune di Reggio Emilia e l’Africa, 40 anni di storia Il rapporto tra Reggio Emilia e l’Africa ha origini lontane: il confronto tra la comunità reggiana e quella africana nasce negli anni ’60, prima come solidarietà sanitaria e in seguito come rapporto di cooperazione decentrata che coinvolge gli enti locali e la società civile del territorio in una serie di azioni rivolte ai paesi africani. Negli anni ’70 Reggio ha avuto un ruolo di primo piano a livello internazionale nella promozione dei movimenti di lotta al colonialismo e alla segregazione razziale. Il 24 e 25 marzo del 1973 al teatro Valli si tenne la “Conferenza di solidarietà contro il colonialismo, l’imperialismo e per la libertà e l’indipendenza dell’Angola, della Guinea Bissau e del Mozambico” alla presenza dei maggiori leader africani, compreso il futuro presidente del Mozambico Samora Machel. Grazie all’impegno di Giuseppe Soncini e di tanti cittadini che hanno voluto impegnarsi per i popoli africani, il Comune costituì il “Comitato unitario per l’amicizia, la cooperazione e la solidarietà con i popoli”. Il 2 luglio 1975 l’allora sindaco Renzo Bonazzi firmò il patto di amicizia e di cooperazione culturale con la città di Pemba (Mozambico). Il presidente mozambicano Samora Machel venne in visita ufficiale nella nostra città nel 19891 per ringraziare Reggio per l’impegno profuso nei confronti della comunità mozambicana. La nostra città il 26 giugno 1977 siglò un “patto di solidarietà” con il movimento antiapartheid dell’African National Congress, il movimento di liberazione per la creazione di un Sudafrica unito e democratico fondato da Nelson Mandela, Oliver Tambo e Walter Sisulu.

  • Università Di Napoli L'orientale Questo Articolo È Il Tentativo Di
    Università di Napoli L’Orientale The following essay aims to be an examination of the dyna- mics of the struggles of liberation from the Portuguese empire, the processes of decolonization and the end of the Estado Novo, through the analysis of the film and visual heritage produced in the international context, specifically the Italian one, more than forty years from the liberation of the Portuguese colonies. In the 1960s and 1970s, unlike many other European and Western countries, Italy showed a growing attention to what was happening in the Portuguese colonies in Africa, developing an intense activity of solidarity with the liberation movements (PAIGC, FRELIMO and MPLA). In an attempt to undertake a more systematic analysis of that experience before it is totally lost, the following work aims to study the audiovisual and photographic productions produced in those years: documentaries, films, photojour- nalism projects realized in Angola, Guinea Bissau, Mozambique. Nelli, Conchiglia, de Stefani, Lucas, Alfredo, Cigarini, Massobrio and Bedei are the most famous in this rich panorama of reporters and filmmakers who supported the liberation movements. postcolonial visual studies, international solidarity movements; anticolonial struggle, cinema ‘guerrilla’, Lusophone Africa Questo articolo è il tentativo di scavare nell’archivio di relazioni che negli anni Sessanta e Settanta ha visto coinvolte le esperienze di lotta per la liberazione delle ex colonie portoghesi in Africa e diverse figure italiane in un proficuo rapporto di sostegno, collaborazione e solida- rietà. Un dialogo che si è articolato negli anni in cui l’internazionalismo metteva in campo la costituzione di fronti comuni con i movimenti anticoloniali non solo politicamente, ma che si declinava anche attraverso relazioni intellettuali, produzioni culturali, audio-visive e fotogra- fiche.
