Gli Azzurri | Part 10 | Empoli In The Champions League

#FM24 #GliAzzurri Part 10: Empoli In The Champions League. I didn't think I'd ever be saying this, but #EmpoliFC are in with the big boys in the #ChampionsLeague! A busy summer, breaking our transfer record twice, sets us up very nicely. Read here:

The good people of Empoli painted the streets blue with gallons of Nastro Azzurro, Chianti, limoncello and Negronis flowing freely as they celebrated the greatest day in the history of Empoli FC. Our young side defied all the odds to win the Europa League and record the highest-ever finish in club history. To build on that, we had £79m in the bank, a transfer kitty of £54m and £300k of spare…

KORONA: YAĞMA YOK! SIRA SİZE GELDİ! ŞİMDİ KORKUN BAKALIM!

KORONA SINIF VE VARLIK AYRIMI YAPMAYINCA,

KORKTUNUZ DEĞİL Mİ!

KORONA İLE HAYVANLAR İNTİKAM ALIYOR...

Yağma Yok ! Günde 22 bin kişi açlıktan ölüyor. Günde binlerce kişi sıtmadan ölüyor. Günde binlerce kişi başta Afrika olmak üzere doktorsuzluk ve ilaçsızlıktan ölüyor! Ama virüs, Papa ve Din adamlarına, Tom Hanks’a, Devlet Başkanlarına, Başbakanlara, Bakanlara her gün milyonlarca dolar para kazanan zengin iş adamlarına ve vergisiz kazançları milyonlarca doları bulan ünlü sporculara bulaşınca! Virüs sınıf ve varlık ayırımı yapmayınca! Korktunuz değil mi? Yağma yok ! Tüm dünyanın bilim adamları, virüse henüz çare bulamayınca korkutunuz değil mi ? Masum suçsuz hayvanları, insanlar seyretsin diye hayvanat bahçelerine attınız ! Yunus balıklarının yüzlercesini öldürüp onları birer oyuncak yaptınız ! Sirklerde insanlar eğlensin diye hayvanları istismar ettiniz, ayıları şartlı refleks kazanmaları için kızgın saçlarda yürüttünüz! Acımasız avcılar hayvanları en son teknoloji ile aldatıp son beyaz zürafayı bile öldürüp gururlanınca, Avustralya’da develer vurulurken sesiniz hiç çıkmadı ! Yağma yok ! Şimdi sıra hayvanlarda, onlar da bizden intikam alıyor! Hele Çin, kürk ticaretine canlı canlı hayvanların kürkünü üstünden çalarak yasakları delip devam etti. Zaten virüs muhtemelen bu yüzden orada başladı! Yağma yok ! Sıra diğerlerinde! Şimdi korkup evlere kapandınız! Kolonyaları, makarnaları, alkolleri kapıştınız. Ölümden korkuyorsunuz değil mi? Virüs çünkü sınıf farkı ayırımı yapmadı. Şımarık ünlü bir futbolcu ise kendisine ada satın alıp, oraya kaçtı. Korkuyorsunuz değil mi? Yağma yok ! Kuş ve domuz gribi gibi, Bu virüs da Çin’de gaddarca avlanan bir çeşit pullu karınca yiyen ���pangolinden” yayıldı. Çaresi bulunamadı: Tüm uçak seferleri iptal oldu. Okullar kapatıldı. Futbol maçları oynanmadı, insanlar birbirinden bir metre uzaklaştı. Biz insanlar bugüne dek hep tükettik ! Hep daha fazlasını istedik ! Yeni araba, yeni yat, yeni kürkler! Yeni cep telefonu Yeni yazlık evler Suudi Kralı beş özel jeti ile Tayland’a tatile gitti. Birleşik Arap Emirleri dişleri ağrıyınca özel uçakları ile dişçilerine Londra’ya uçtu. 96 parçalı yemek takımları, mutfak robotları alındı. Ama ekmeklerinizi, yemeklerinizi çöpe attık. Sosyal medyada küstahça “gurme ve yemek” resimlerini paylaştınız. Alışveriş merkezlerinde 8 bin dolara çantalar alındı. Yüzsüz bir adam tuzu omuzundan akıtıp altın suyunda biftek kızarttı, bin dolar ödeyip bir hayvanın etini zevkle yediniz. Canlı canlı ıstakozlar kaynar suya atıldı! 22 bin kişi günde açlıktan ölürken! Doların yeşilini, doğanın yeşiline hep tercih ettiniz! Zavallı boğayı adım adım işkence ile öldüren zalim matadorları alkışladınız. Manzara için ağaçlar kesildi! Oskar töreninde binlerce dolarlık elbise ile kırmızı halıda züppece yürüyenleri hayranlıkla seyrettiniz ! Reklam ve dizilerle kandırıldınız! İçki masalarında entel takıldınız ! Ama siz bir şey yapmadınız. Hep konuştunuz, hep başkalarından beklediniz. Serpme kahvaltıda gözünüz bayram etti ama, yiyeceklerin yüzde yetmişi çöp oldu. Yiyeceklerin en az yarısı çöpe giden iftar sofralarında lüks otellerde oruç tutmayan zenginleri ağırladınız ! Oysa “iftar” fakirlerle paylaşmaktır! Havai fişeklere dakikada bin dolar ödediniz, hayvanları öldürdünüz, yaşlı ve hastaları korkuttunuz. Şimdi “Trump” dahil hepimiz sabuna, suya kaldık! Paranız, servetiniz, evleriniz bu sefer işe yaramadı! Yağma yok ! Bugünleri siz hazırladınız, şimdi korkun bakalım! Bir süre sonra muhtemelen bu virüsün de aşısı, tedavisi bulunacak, Virüs gündemden düşecek, tüketim sistemi tüm hızı ile devam edecek! Ama yoksullar bu virüsten, diğer hastalıklardan ve açlıktan ölmeye devam edecek! Yine de bir kesim hiç ama hiç akıllanmayacak! Orhan KURAL kural@itu.edu.tr It’s out of the question! Twenty two thousand people die of hunger everyday. Thousands of people die of malaria everyday. Thousands of people foremost in Africa die of due to lack of doctors and medicine every day! But when the virus effects the Pope and clergymen, heads of states, prime ministers, ministers, businessmen who make millions of dollars and famous football players who earn millions of dollars without taxes… When the virus does not discriminate wealth and class You are scared, aren’t you? It’s out of the question! When all the scientists of the world, cannot come up with a treatment, you are scared, aren’t you? You have thrown innocent animals into zoos for the entertainment of the human kind. You have killed hundreds of dolphins like they are toys. You have exploited animals in circuses for entertainment. You have made bears walk in hot iron plates for them to gain conditioned response. You were silent when cruel hunters hunted the last white giraffe with the latest technology, with pride and camels were shot in Australia. It’s out of the question! Now it is the animal’s turn to take revenge from human kind. Specially China broke the regulations by striping the skin from live animals for their furs. That’s probably why the virus began there. It’s out of the question! Now it’s other’s turn! Now you are scared and locked yourselves in your homes. You bought colognes, pasta and alcohol. You are afraid of death, aren’t you? Because the virus does not discriminate class. A spoiled famous football player bought an island and went hiding in there. You are scared, aren’t you? It’s out of the question! Like the bird virus and swine influenza virus This virus also spread from a kind of pangolin, which are brutally hunted in China. No treatment could be found: All the planes are canceled. Schools are closed. Football matches could not be played; people are one meter away from each other. We people consumed until today! Always wanted more! New cars, new yachts, new furs! New smart phones New summer houses... The king of Saudi Arabia went to a holiday in Thailand with five private jets. United Arab Emirates prince flew to his dentist in London with private planes when his tooth ached. 96 pieces dinner sets and food processors were bought. But we threw our bread and food in trash. You shared photos of ‘gourmet food’ in social media. Eight thousand dollar handbags were bought in shopping malls. An audacious man threw salt and fried beef in gold water and you pay thousand dollars to eat an animal’s meat. Lobsters were thrown in boiling water alive While 22 thousand people die of hunger everyday! You always preferred the green of dollar to the green of nature. You clapped the matador who kills the bull step by step. Trees were cut to get a good view! You watched people who walk the red carpet in thousand of dollar dresses with admiration! You were deceived with TV shows and commercials! You played the intellectual while drinking. But you did nothing. You just talked and waited for others to react. You were very happy to join open buffets but seventy percent of the food thrown in trash. You hosted rich people who are not even fasting in luxurious hotels for the breaking of the Ramadan fast, which half of the food were wasted. Although fasting means sharing with poor. You wasted thousand dollars in a minute in fireworks, which killed animals and scared the old and the sick people. We have nothing now but water and soap including Trump! Your money, wealth and houses do not help this time! It’s out of the question! You bought this and now it is time to be scared! After some time, there will be cure and vaccine for this virus probably. We will forget about this virus and consuming will go on! But the poor will keep dying from this virus and other illnesses and hunger! Some people will never become wiser!

GARISSA TO GRACE, THE STORY OF ABDINOOR ADEN

To those who don’t know him, is just an ordinary tiny Cushite boy chasing his dreams. But to many, the boy once dubbed ‘The talkative’ by his elder sister has overcome odds to place his name among Kenya’s media personalities.

Known to Garissa’s population for his eloquence, on stage courage and creativity, Abdinoor has not only commentated at various soccer matches, but also served as an entertainer; reciting poems at different stages, acting plays for all types of audience and leading road shows.

The smallest son and third born son in a family of 8, his soccer commentary skills, public speaking, emceeing and communication ability, earned him praise and prominence despite his age.

He has gone extra miles, making extreme decisions to keep his dream alive. To remain relevant and follow all the latest news updates, he bought his first TV with the first 10,000 shillings he earned as a transport reimbursement at a workshop in Nairobi, 2009. TV might have never been a priority for his parents though they could afford it but to him it was an essential item for his growth.

Abdinoor was tired with the continued humiliation by his neighbours who at times used their TV as a bait to engage him in tasks such as fetching water and at times going to the shop to buy stuff.

His father served as a driver for a Kenyan journalist, Willis Raburu’s dad, Peter Raburu while he was a DC in Mandera. This never inspired his journalism career though.

From sweeping soccer watching dens in order to watch the matches for free, to getting punished for arriving home late from watching soccer matches his media foundation didn’t come easy. He would be jailed for loitering after coming from a soccer game,

Abdinoor started his education at Police line nursery school before he joined Young Muslim primary school, Garissa in the year 1997.

During his junior school days, Abdinoor participated in reading competitions and poetry. While in the sixth class, he performed for Retired President Daniel Arap Moi in 2002 in Garissa.

He earned fame too for a poem on miraa/Khat which he used to perform as a way of creating awareness about dangers of the drug.

After completing school aged 13, he joined Wajir high school in the year 2005. His elder brother, Abdikadir Aden who was then a form four student, was a huge influence in his choice of the school after turning down the chance to join Garissa High school. At school, he was nicknamed ‘Atom’ for his size.

In Wajir, he was in new surroundings, new people but he kept his talent alive.

Abdinoor was the youngest presenter and contestant at various events where his public speaking and concept explanation skills earned him a ticket to compete at different competitions till his final year. He defied his age to apply his public speaking skills where he was an active participant at inter district schools debating and journalism activities.

When the mobile phone craze started building, Abdinoor would ask his colleagues to film him as he pretended to be reporting or reporting news.

In 2008, the final year at school, Abdinoor made history in for being part of The Provincial Drama winning team, regional Science Congress Winner, and a member of the football team that won the provincial event.

His Ability to negotiate with his colleagues through dialogue and good speeches never went unnoticed. He was rewarded the most disciplined student during the annual school awards giving ceremony in the year 2008 for his good leadership and harmonious nature.

His passion for football dates back to his high school days. He was enlisted by the school soccer team having been the team’s favourite fan since form one. He was the ball boy, kit manager and even the team doctor at times. As an appreciation, he was included in the final 18-man squad that went to compete at the Kenya secondary schools term games held in Machakos in the year 2008.

In 2008 after completing high School, his dream was to join Kenya Institute of MASS communication. However, It never materialized as he couldn’t afford to go to College. He wrote three different application letters but his parents couldn’t afford since his siblings too studied. Furthermore, Wajir High School Withheld his certificate since he didn’t clear his fees. He kept performing at different events to support himself.

 Upon completion of his studies, having waited for long he finally got hold of the microphone, unbelievably, from commentators, three times his age. He would be invited to events with fixed payment, but Abdinoor didn’t resist. This is where he learnt patience.  He has never looked back since thus gaining prominence in Garissa and the larger North-Eastern region for his passionate and exciting acting and style of soccer commentating.

During April 2009, Copa Coca Cola, Abdinoor approached the organizers asking for a chance to apply his commentary skills.

After impressing when he was tried whether he was equal to the task, Abdinoor further got the opportunity to commentate both at the zonal and national finals at Nyayo Stadium.

In May 2009, while in Naivasha, he was hired by a tour company as a sales person. Sadly, he had to leave the job during the second week in order to go and apply for a national identification card.

In September, he briefly joined Garissa teachers’ college. A few days earlier, in his second semester, Abdinoor quit the teaching course he had started. His schoolmates’ efforts to convince him failed as he believed it wasn’t his profession. Abdinoor would sneak from the school atop a vehicle which supplied the school canteen to balance his teaching course, marketing and his passion for performing arts. He would use the money from his performances for his upkeep in the teaching college.

December the same year, while in Mombasa, Abdinoor approached the organizers of the Pwani International youth football tournament, on whether he could be given the opportunity to commentate. He was auditioned in the first five minutes of the match together with three other men. Abdinoor was given the green light to commentate the whole tournament after wowing the organizers.

His star shone in February 2010, whereby after quitting teaching college to try his luck at the auditions to join the talent academy, he was awarded the best performing artist during North eastern province talent search completion thus earning a scholarship to join the National youth talent academy in Nairobi. He received an intensive training on film and theater production.

 Apart from commentating, Abdinoor played great role in civic education and awareness creation from Garissa to Mandera as he was involved largely during the 2010 referendum informing the public on the content of the new constitution as well as voter participation during the referendum.

He later joined G-youth youth civic program in 2011. Through the radio training received, he made various radio programs on topics concerning youth affairs, where he informed, educated, and brought together the youth and their stakeholders.

Abdinoor has risen with all his struggles and a KCDF GYOUTH Scholarship program enabled him to complete his Diploma in broadcast journalism.

In September 2011, Abdinoor prepared his first news bulletin using his mobile phone and presented the stories on a handwritten paper in the Garissa based Risala Radio station he voluntarily served.

He would script and record radio promos using the voices of his neighbors or their kids.

During Safaricom sponsored Sakata ball competition in Garissa, at the zonal level matches 2011, Abdinoor, after impressing the sponsors, was rewarded by getting the chance to commentate at the regional and national finals.

His biggest opportunity to date came in 2012, where Abdinoor emerged first runner up in the Supersport Swahili soccer commentator search competition, dubbed bonga boli.

His participation was threatened by his lack of fare. He couldn’t travel to Nairobi.

Later in the evening, the headteacher of Garissa Primary school enabled him to pay for his fare since he had been. We were provided meals and during eid, we were given lunch handouts by the management he says.

In January 2013, after commentating at a local football match, Abdinoor was hired by Mombasa based Radio station, Radio Salaam, which largely broadcasts in Swahili. Despite the direct recruitment, Abdinoor passed the audition test and became the first Somali born Swahili presenter from North Eastern to serve in the station.  

He later on became the first Somali Soccer analyst in Kenya after he was hired to work in the Supersport Swahili Programme, Mchakamchaka. He analyzed local and continental soccer matches in Swahili language. It didn’t come easy for him since the government had banned night travel.

‘’While working in Mombasa, the only vehicle I never boarded is an ambulance and a police car. From parcel vehicles to cargo lorries, it was a hustle’’. He risked his life to pay for his University fees by traveling to take part in soccer analysis show which aired every Tuesday at Supersport. Tuesday was his only off day as he worked six days at school.

A big incident changed his life. One afternoon as he looked for a bureau to change money, Abdinoor was conned 100,000 shillings by con men. He was given tabled exercise book papers cut creatively thinking they were dollars. Luckily, he reported and the crooks were sentenced later to 3 years. That was my saving to buy a camera for media work he says.

The following Tuesday, he received an Email from the BBC where he was invited for an interview. The rest is history as he became successful to serve in the institution.

From the Garissa University to the most recent general elections, Abdinoor says he has earned experience covering different news events while at the BBC.

He admired the late Ahmed Darwesh, and Abdi Osman for their reporting skills.

Whereas his colleagues have left journalism for other careers such as serving in the forces, Abdinoor believes passion is key to everything.

His vision includes starting a foundation and to inspire talented youth in his community in future.

During his graduation at Technical University of Mombasa, Abdinoor invited his two little sisters who were in High school for to motivate them so that they too would commit to their studies and work hard in school.

In 2015, Abdinoor auditioned for a commercial advert where he beat prominent names to play the main character in the Naivas Mpesa Competition.

Even though he is only 26, Abdinoor terms passion, patience, hunger and desire to succeed as his inspiration. He is inspired by Steve Jobs and any person who remains positive in the face of adversity.

According to him, he doesn’t regret everything he might have done without pay as it has earned him experience and contributed to his rise.

He is lucky to have performed for different Kenyan Presidents including President Daniel Moi, Mwai Kibaki and even emceed for President Uhuru Kenyatta at an event in Garissa.

Abdinoor has directed radio dramas, scripted plays and produced commercials for different organizations.

He might be perceived a joker, but blending his film skills and journalism has developed his sense of humor and simplicity.

‘’Stay Hungry, stay foolish’’ is his favourite quote.

Lutte contre le sida : ces activistes de l'ombre

Le film 120 Battements par minute est enfin sorti ce mercredi. Je l’ai vu trois fois depuis mai dernier, sans lassitude, avec ce sentiment de vivre par procuration ce qui m’avait tellement manqué il y a vingt ans quand j’apprenais seule ma séropositivité dans ma Normandie natale : la force du groupe, les choses que tu ne peux dire qu’à des personnes qui vivent la même chose que toi, des combats communs, des espoirs, des baisses de moral, des joies… Le film ne m’a pas rendue admirative de ces militants qui n’avaient de cesse de se battre : je l’étais déjà depuis longtemps, j’ai la chance d’en côtoyer certains depuis de nombreuses années…

Certains étaient à Act Up à l’époque relatée par le film, d’autres l’ont rejoint un peu plus tard… Lors de nos premières rencontres, alors que je ne travaillais pas encore pour Sidaction, j’étais complètement tétanisée… Moi la petite «provinciale-hétéro-discrète-qu’avait-pas-le-profil-d’activiste-séropo»… Je sentais ces personnes tellement pointues, tellement expertes et expérimentées, tellement combattantes, que la simple évocation d’une rencontre avec «quelqu’un d’Act Up» ou «un ancien d’Act Up» m’impressionnait au plus au point… Ils m’ont beaucoup appris, moi qui ne pouvais dire à l’époque qu’un timide : «Euh, sinon, je vis avec le VIH aussi…»

A lire aussi Robin Campillo : «Chaque action d’Act Up était déjà enrobée par la fiction»

Alors aujourd’hui, à l’occasion de la sortie du film, et après l’avoir «digéré», je ne peux m’empêcher de lire les kilomètres d’articles sur sa sortie, dans les journaux, les magazines, sur les sites internet… Des avis, des analyses, des constats, et des questions qui reviennent : «Qu’est donc devenu cet activisme ? Qu’est donc devenu Act Up ? Sur quoi se mobilisent les jeunes aujourd’hui ?»

Luttes

Le constat global est de dire que la mobilisation n’est plus la même, et qu’à part Aides et ce qui survit d’Act Up, il n’y a plus grand-chose qui se passe… Au passage, dans tous ces écrits, lorsque le nom de Sidaction est évoqué, c’est souvent pour relater le fameux clash du Sidaction 96. Un clash salutaire soit dit en passant, car si la claque financière fut importante, l’intervention de Christophe Martet avait le mérite de rappeler à la mémoire du grand public ceux que la société ne voulait pas voir… Et nous ne manquons pas de rappeler aujourd’hui que Sidaction finance Act Up depuis plusieurs années maintenant, dans la mesure de nos moyens , et que nous sommes admiratifs de leur travail sur la permanence sociale notamment. Non, Act Up n’est pas mort.

Mais ce n’est pas d’Act Up ou de Aides dont je voudrais finalement parler… Mais des autres. Des autres qu’aucun article n’a nommés, comme s’il n’y avait en France que deux associations de lutte contre le sida… Comme si l’activisme d’aujourd’hui ne pouvait être qu’une reproduction de ce que nous montre 120 Battements par minute, ou comme s’il ne passait, comme j’ai parfois pu le lire, que par les réseaux sociaux.

A lire aussi Le graphisme des années sida, du virus au viral

Non, cet activisme aujourd’hui se joue aussi sur le terrain, au quotidien. Avec ces «autres» qui ne mènent pas des actions telles que décrites dans le film, certes, et qui ne se considèrent pas eux-mêmes comme des activistes au sens de l’Histoire d’Act Up avec un grand H… Mais des activistes du quotidien, confrontés chaque jour, chaque nuit parfois, à la précarité sociale, affective et économique des personnes vivant avec le VIH. Des activistes dans chaque région de France, métropole et outre-mer, qui font un travail de fourmi, se heurtent chaque jour à des histoires éprouvantes, harassantes, mènent des activités souvent peu valorisées ou reconnues…

Lorsque à Sidaction, nous parlons avec les équipes des 70 associations que nous soutenons encore aujourd’hui, nous pourrions écrire des pages et des pages de témoignages sur les luttes qu’elles mènent, auprès de femmes migrantes isolées, auprès de travailleuses du sexe, auprès de détenus, auprès d’usagers de drogues, auprès de jeunes gays, auprès de personnes âgées et seules, auprès de personnes transgenres… Et toutes ces personnes sont elles-mêmes fer de lance de cet activisme du quotidien.

Des luttes administratives pour obtenir les bons papiers, des luttes pour faire reconnaître ses droits, pour ne pas se voir priver de ses allocations adulte handicapé, pour avoir un endroit où dormir la nuit, pour s’occuper de leur santé, ne pas d��crocher des soins, rompre l’isolement, retrouver un projet de vie, vivre aussi normalement que possible. Des luttes, aussi, pour que des financements soient maintenus à un niveau régional pour leurs associations, tout en se demandant aussi à quoi ressemblera leur avenir quand il est question de supprimer les contrats aidés…

Fiers

Des luttes pour que les personnes qui habitent en province et apprennent aujourd’hui leur séropositivité ne vivent pas cela complètement seuls. Ils sont là aussi, ces activistes… Et nous en voyons de toutes générations, des jeunes et des moins jeunes, des personnes qui continuent de lutter contre le sida, chaque jour, malgré les obstacles, malgré les baisses de financement, malgré le désintérêt général grandissant sur la question du VIH… La page est trop courte pour citer toutes ces personnes dont vous ne lirez sûrement jamais le nom dans les journaux, pour citer toutes ces associations qui continuent de se mobiliser chaque jour. J’ai pourtant envie de leur dire qu’aujourd’hui, ce sont eux et elles qui me tétanisent de par leur incroyable engagement, ancien, ou plus récent (car détrompez-vous, il y a beaucoup de jeunes qui s’engagent encore aujourd’hui, lisez donc le blog du Kitambala Agité), de par leurs combats envers et contre tout, et ce sont eux et elles qui aujourd’hui ont toute mon admiration…

Allez, envie de citer au moins quelques-unes de ces associations, que nous sommes fiers de soutenir, comme l’ALS ou Cabiria à Lyon, Grisélidis à Toulouse (oui Act Up Sud-Ouest aussi, mais j’ai dit que je parlerais des autres !), Ippo ou le Gaps à Bordeaux, Arcat, le Comede, Acceptess-T, Marie-Madeleine, Actions traitements, Afrique arc-en-ciel, Afrique avenir, Basiliade, Association espoir en Ile-de-France, Entr’Aides ou Daac en Guyane, Actis à Saint-Etienne, le réseau santé Marseille sud, Sol en si, Autres regards, Nouvelle aube à Marseille, Aiutu corsu en Corse, l’ARPS à La Réunion, Envie ou Arap Rubis en Occitanie, le collectif Droits et prostitution, l’Observatoire international des prisons…

Et tant d’autres… 120 battements par minute doit être l’occasion de rappeler que nous n’avons pas baissé les bras, de rappeler la force collective (qui s’ignore parfois) de tous ces acteurs de la lutte contre le sida, dans toute leur diversité, dans tous leurs combats pour les plus exclus. Lutter contre le sida et les discriminations, un sujet plus que jamais d’actualité en 2017, alors que 6 000 personnes découvrent chaque année leur séropositivité, où que des pétitions circulent pour tenter, à nouveau, de nous interdire l’accès aux soins funéraires.
