Bologna protest

For over ten years, Bologna has been my safe place. The place I chose as a second home. But now it scares me: what happened is too serious". The voice of Zafa, a 33-year-old Iranian photographer and activist, is worried and breaks as she retraces the nightmare into which she has fallen for months. A whirlwind of "insults and threats of rape and death", left under the posts of her social profiles and also in private chat, which 'came out' of the screen and reached her in real life, "in broad daylight, on Sunday, while I was demonstrating in the square for the freedom of the Iranian people, as I have been doing in several cities in Italy since January - says Zafa, who has already filed two complaints with the carabinieri -. Since I have been involved in these mobilizations, terrible comments have appeared under some of my Instagram posts.
