Date: 24/04/2020

Music has been a hallmark of protest movements around the world, serving to galvanise action, mobilise masses, & inspire change.

#May1: On International Workers’ Day, we honour the voices of the struggles for workers’ rights and social justice: their songs, creativity, & achievements.

We take inspiration from one of the most enduring protest anthems that has spanned several generations & is still sung to this day: ‘Bella Ciao’

Struggles for social & environmental justice, for workers’ rights, feminism, equality, & peace have continued strong, creative, inspiring, determined and full of life. #BellaCiao continues to be heard in squares around the world in many different languages.

Today, we honour and celebrate these voices of struggle.

"È questo il fiore del partigiano
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao ciao ciao
È questo il fiore del partigiano
Morto per la libertà"
