This is the beating heart of \u201cWomen. Resistance. Freedom.\u201d, the latest literary effort by the journalist and writer <strong>Angela Iantosca<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A bond beyond time and space<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nThe book stems from a profound intuition: to juxtapose the biographies of the <strong>Italian Constituent Mothers to 21 stories of Afghan women<\/strong> encountered by the author through the work of <strong>Nine Caring Humans<\/strong>, the NGO that has been supporting the female population in Kabul and Italy for years.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abIt is a book I deeply love,\u00bb explains Iantosca, emphasising that the work is not just a chronicle of the fall of Kabul on 15 August 2021, but an intimate analysis of loss and rebirth. In the pages, the voices of female journalists, teachers, doctors and midwives alternate, who in an instant have seen their careers and freedom crumble to dust, finding themselves forced to start from scratch in a foreign country.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Why I combined the Constituent Mothers with the stories of Afghan women\" width=\"563\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZafYypDTA6U?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Against the stigma of reception<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nThe author's aim is twofold: to give a voice to those who have been silenced by obscurantism and to break down the prejudices that often surround the figure of the refugee. The book explores the struggle of integration, the obstacle of language and the need to be looked at not as \u201cworrying foreigners\u201d, but as people who are bearers of immense value.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the words of the Afghan women, I found the same thirst for democracy that drove our constituents. It is an incredible connection that I felt compelled to tell.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A commitment that becomes a gift<\/p>\n<p>The collaboration with Nine Caring Humans does not end between the lines of the book. Consistent with the message of solidarity expressed in the work, Angela Iantosca announced her decision to devolve part of the proceeds from the author's rights to the NGO in order to concretely support the paths of integration of Afghan women on Italian soil.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Un ponte ideale fatto di diritti, coraggio e dignit\u00e0 calpestata, che collega le 21 donne che scrissero la Costituzione italiana alle profughe in fuga dal regime talebano. \u00c8 questo il cuore pulsante di &#8220;Donne.
