Nine days after the afternoon in which he was abruptly interrupted by Mara Venier while proposing his reasoning on the contribution of immigrants to Italy, Dargen D'Amico returns to television: he does it in the “competitor” show ” of Tuesday on La7. Giovanni Floris immediately asks the singer if he felt like the victim of censorship that day, the day after Rai closed the Sanremo Festival. “I wouldn't say it, after all, I had already developed a good part of my reasoning,” replies diplomatically D'Amico, who had in fact declined Mara Venier's invitation to return to the Sunday at next week. The singer therefore does not think about censorship. But it's undeniable that there are some topics that are currently more difficult to speak out loud in public. Or at least that was the case until a few days ago. Because his public appearances on the Ariston stage but also those of other artists like Ghali, according to the singer, had the merit of opening a breach. “It has become clear that the silence on the massacred children does not correspond to the feelings of the people, who want this to stop and for Italy to assert its diplomatic weight in this sense,” says D'Amico. What then can we say about the statement that Mara Venier had to read at the end of this program to “correct” the line compared to the one that appeared on Rai's flagship channel on the conflict in Gaza, that of the CEO of Rai , Roberto Sergio? “We know that everyone has a master, we all have one. But my master in this matter is humanity: this complicit silence forced me to speak”, affirms D'Amico. After being invited by Giovanni Floris to finish his interminable reasoning on immigration – “I am tired of seeing my brothers and sisters treated as second-class citizens rather than resources,” he explains – he is once again kindly thanked and dismissed by the host. “Is it over yet ?» asks the surprised singer, getting up from his chair. The timetables ring once again: Democratic Party Secretary Elly Schlein is ready, after waiting for many minutes on the correspondence from Sardinia.
