Che aiuta i migranti, certo, ma come aiuta tutti. La nostra intervista al Vescovo di Bergamo, monsi- U gnor Francesco Beschi, ci permette di avere un punto di vista privilegiato su temi capitali di oggi. Come la tecnocrazia e il lavoro giovanile, e poi ancora la violenza, il terrorismo e i rapporti con l’Islam. «C'è un'ingiustizia diffusa - ci ha detto monsignor Beschi - che è spesso la prima causa delle guerre, del terrore, della violenza. Anche sulle nostre strade e tra le nostre case. Ci sono però nello stesso tempo dei “segni” che sono “semi” da coltivare. Il pontificato di Papa Francesco in questo orizzonte è una grande forza morale che viene offerta al mondo». E di forza morale, nella Bergamasca, ci sono molti fulgidi esempi. Le iniziative di solidarietà non si contano: ve ne raccontiamo alcune tra le più significative, come l'impegno di Amitiè Sans Frontiers, del Rotary Bergamo Sud, dell'Accademia dello Sport per la Solidarietà (che organizza il torneo di tennis tra vip e tornei di golf).
