Slow Food founder Carlo Petrini has
appealed for Italy to mark the 75th anniversary of the
liberation by the Allies on April 25 in a virtual way under the
hashtag #IStayFree, mimicking the #IStayAtHome coronavirus
hashtag.
Some 1,500 artists, intellectuals, sportspeople, men of the
Church and laypeople, movements, associations and trade unions
have responded to the call for the April 25 national holiday.
The event will also feature a whip-round to ensure the most
needy have a roof over their heads and a hot meal.
"We can't let such an important date go past without doing
something that involves everybody," said Petrini, 70.
