A green light in the windows for migrants hunted on Europe's dark borders.
A green lantern. A sign of solidarity with migrants hunted at the borders of Europe.
A light to brighten the darkness of Union indifference.
Europanow! invites all European citizens to thus show their closeness to people dying at our borders. Taking up the appeal of Father Ercole Ceriani, pastor of the church of Santa Maria dei miracoli in Piazza del Popolo, relaunched by L'Espresso and Avvenire .
Eimitating the spontaneous initiative of those Polish citizens who hang lamps in their windows to offer aid to a desperate and hungry migrant population.
On Thursday, December 23, 2021, we look forward to seeing you in Piazza del Popolo, in front of Father Ceriani's Santa Maria dei miracoli church (from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.), to give you a green light.
EuropaNow! organized the street distribution of green lights and European flags because "the defense of the rights and dignity of the person after the tragedies of the 20th century are at the foundation of the European Union and no policy can justify people dying at our borders."
In Rome, the first event was in Largo Argentina on Friday, December 17.
Then two more garrisons, also in the capital, on Dec. 18 in Via Appia and Dec. 23 in Piazza del Popolo in front of Father Ceriani's Santa Maria dei miracoli church.
EuropaNow! invites everyone to spread the initiative on social media as well, with the hashtags #Greenlight #GreenLanterns.
