[genova-g8] summary of what the diaz and pascoli school were and of 21st july events
by imc italy Thursday June 24, 2004 at 09:13 AM mail:  

this is a quick summary of what the diaz and pascoli school were and what happened on july 21st.

The Pascoli-Diaz-Pertini complex (the name of the three schools has been subject
to debate and to mistakes several times, so we just need to say that we
conventionally name the place where people slept Diaz school and the place where
the media center was Pascoli school) is composed of two buildings where several
schools are located. This complex in july 2001 is given to the Genoa Social
Forum to build a media center and a communication and training center for
various groups participating into actions during july 20th and 21st
mobilizations against G8, as well as sleeping place for people who did not find
other places ( this use will be a unforetold use that could not be avoided
considering the accomodation issues during those days :)

In the Pascoli school the whole 4 floors of the building host: a press room
and a self-managed E.R. in the basement; a legal support room and a medical
support coordination room as well as the GSF offices at the first floor;
alternative / left-wing media at the second floor; indymedia and independent
movement media at the third floor; some office structures like copy machines and
so on at the fourth floor where you could also access the roof.

In the Diaz school the gymn is used as training room with a small hallway and
room used as public internet access space. Soon the whole school is used to
sleep by several people not finding other places to lie down.
During the whole week tens of hackers and media-activists mantain the place,
allowing media people of any kind to tell their experience of the events in
Genoa in those days.

Saturday night, while most of the people who in the previous days where deciding
whether to go home or stay for the night, some lines of policeman in riot gear
appear uphill on the street where the schools are (via cesare battisti). The
police comes down on the schools rapidly and the raid of both buildings starts.
During the showdown an activist is caught on the street outside the school not
having had the time to get inside one of the two, and is beaten almost to death.
In the Pascoli school the police rage is satisfied quickly by the destruction of
legal forum, medics and mediactivist pcs, as well as a bit of beatings of random
activists, while in the Diaz school it takes the shape of a full-fledged
massacre. In the Pascoli people is forced to sit down or to lie face down on the
floor, the rooms are searched and material seized with no paper whatsoever to
justify it. In the Diaz school the police showdown becomes instantly a mass
bloody beating and a hunt to the last activist in all of the building.
The news flys quickly on all of the medias and outside the schools one can see a
big crowd of jounalists, politicians and activist forming, until the police
withdraws first from the Pascoli and later from the Diaz school. Withdrawing
means the arrest of 93 people (everyone apart the ones who managed to slip away
by sheer luck) and the injury of more than 60 people, 3 of which in very heavy
conditions and one struggling for his life at the hospital.
The withdrawal takes hours, whose rhythm is set by the ambulances driving away
injured people and police vans dragging away the one who can walk. The people
outside screams "murderers, murderers", especially when the police forces drag
outside a black bag containing seized materials, that people thinks to be a
body bag.
Late at night the police finally disappears and holds a press conference
accusing the 93 of being part of an international organization that wanted to
loot and destroy to the ground genoa, as well as stating to have been subject to
armed aggression during the raid at the school.
After a short while all of these accusations will be proved false, and only two
years afterwards more lies on the police operation (including the stabbing of a
cop inside the schoold during the raid and the finding of two molotov cocktails)
will be exposed and become a court case.
