Cagliari “How were you dressed?” is the title of the exhibition Amnesty International Group 128 Of Cagliari brings to the city from 15th to 24th June, as part of Queeresima 2024, the series of events coordinated by ARC for the promotion of LGBTIA+ rights, present in these days in Cagliari and beyond. “How were you dressed?” – explain the organizers of Gruppo 128 Amnwsty Cagliari – is the question that women victims of violence hear repeated once, a hundred, a thousand times. As if it were truly an important element, the triggering cause of sexual violence and not a hard-to-die cliché that blames those who suffer the violence and not those who commit it.”
A traveling exhibition that is hosted in the windows of eight different clothing shops in Cagliari, thanks to the sensitivity and availability of the owners. Each showcase, through a very normal dress that every woman could have in her wardrobe, will tell a story, a story of violence suffered. The exhibition, distributed in Italy by the Libere Sinergie Association and Amnesty International, aims to make people reflect on how to overcome and deconstruct a stereotype that is as deep-rooted as it is baseless. Tomorrow Saturday 15 June from 10am to 1pm in via Garibaldi, near the newsstand, to inaugurate the exhibition there will be a banquet of the Association where signatures will be collected for the Amnesty campaign on consent #Iolochiedo, to overcome violence of gender.
