striking lately, listen to (in assemblies) or read (on the many documents and press releases that run) the connotation of "doing philosophy" as opposed to "work" the latter no doubt much more useful than mere theory implicit in the concept of "doing philosophy". I also hit a series of steps or positions referred to the "failure" of the movement / policy / trans associations that there has been until now. Clear that standing in the gap Years 70 and far from being clear that I am over that part of the movement of association also called GLT MIT which this year celebrated its 30 year history. Clear that in 30 years of history I find it hard to discern between philosophy (theory) and practice, to discern between what were the practices and the thought that what he claimed, I find it difficult simply because the two things for me, have traveled together. I find it difficult to consider what has been done so far, pure and simple "theory" all the more when I think I suffered violence, fist fights that I am taken by the Fascists (three times), to those police officers that I / we stopped, we were spend the night in jail. I find it hard thinking of when I was arrested (November 1979) for obscene acts in public place (4 days of isolation at Regina Coeli and three months to the process for summary). I can hardly even thinking about the thousands of events-protests-protest to shed light in the wilderness around us. Above all, I think that it's hard to do / work (as stated somewhere) now have to demolish what you did yesterday.
Just because I find it hard to understand, I try to do some 'order (good one), to do some' working memory and .... put some icing on the cake
For almost all the 70 years I have attended and especially beat up to found the gay scene, along with Marco Sanna, the Collective Narciso later became Circle M. Mieli. I started attending meetings of the MIT exactly when we fought for the Law 164 we got 14 April 1982. In the square along with the many trans, all united in MIT, were the radical comrades in the struggle continues, and the Manifesto of the then PCI ... there were no beams! In light of the "failures" of the theory and feared "reproached" we can consider that a victory in the 164? We can state that was also a victory for MIT? From there I'd leave, because that victory seems like a good starting point to answer the slanders of some care amiche (non compagne) T che sembrano trovare nell’avversione al MIT il loro unico motivo di essere.
E per non tirarla lunga, mi soffermo anche sulla descrizione di alcuni servizi e progetti del MIT e relativi risultati (in numeri certificati) per rispondere alle care T che vedono in quello che si è fatto fino ad ora pura teoria o fallimento.

1) Consultorio diventato oggi Struttura Convenzionata USL con in carico 650 utenti; due gruppi di auto aiuto (uno FtM e uno MtF) che seguono 14 persone; sostegno diretto e telefonico (nell’anno 2009) registrate 1200 telefonate da tutta Italia delle quali 350 per informazioni e consigli, 200 di sostegno a distanza, 190 per motivi legali, 220 per motivi sanitari, 180 and 60 various other services. The Counseling work online with all the towns in the MIT Oniga part. E 'open from Monday to Friday from 10 to 18.
2) New Rights CGIL door open since 1997. You do not have the precise data of 13 years of activity, but to stop last year: 12 people or incurred in seeking work; 8 persons incurred in cases of harassment and discrimination; 5 people followed in the practice of disability and support.
3) Artemis Project (MIT-Municipality of Bologna) harm reduction interventions in the world of street prostitution and in the apartment. Active since 1997. In the last year of Road Unit 6217 contacts were made in the streets, distributed 11,352 condoms, Accompanied 90 people to services. The material to be distributed shall be prepared by MIT and is used by all the Italian designers Harm Reduction. Established a secure location at the time that Article 18 of the following two people.

5) Start working 14 bags in 15 years, 12 job placement.

8) advice and training to major associations and projects of harm reduction.

What do I do again? The
Divergent Transgendered Film Festival now in its third edition. The photo exhibition on transsexuality in the history and culture available to all those who want to expose it. In 2000 he organized Transits (Science and Cultural International Conference on transsexualism and gender identity), where the guest of honor was Sylvia Rivera, Italy invited by MIT. MIT has been a member of the Equal Opportunities Commission (Also contributing to its realization) in the Ministry of Equal Opportunities chaired by Senator Balbo and then by Catia Belillo, then canceled the second Berlusconi government (trans remember this right). All that the MIT has created and has been possible in a political context (the Bolognese) that we want it, do not forget, especially before going to ask for crumbs to Maroni. In recent years MIT has worked to build and establish relationships with all the associations of the GLBT movement. It is indeed involved in constructing the structure of the Trans Counseling Kind of Torre del Lago, in virtue of the fact that a project was Regina (MIT ever) that years working in Tuscany (is there?). When Oniga proposed to transform the T dysphoria in rare disease, MIT held a meeting open to all Italian reality Trans ALL (is there?) And from there, given the importance of comparison, was created the Coordination Sylvia Rivera, although this does not come down to someone, it was not the long arms of the MIT Marcasciano I saw it was open to all and we were all inside. ... VI RESULTS? Former Care of various associations do you remember how many times you have invited MIT to discuss and collaborate .... I understand now why do not you agree, never to exploit or snare, but MIT did not mica needs you! Of these
Things I would have loved to speak in person in quite a public debate but the requests have always fallen on deaf ears. This is mainly because the Coordination T is accused of antagonism and especially since the MIT has never claimed anything nor place conditions, but since the measure is full ... it is good to dot the I. Otherwise, they say, that those who bows too it turns out the ass.
say that today the MIT has a policy that, having regard to the services offered, is not mere theory, philosophy nor simple, nor antagonism ... or even a failure! We say with pride that our work, but without becoming isolated and expanded in comparison, has always drawn in the wake of the rich and varied Sinistra, che ultimamente sembra non andare più di moda o molto più semplicemente non conviene più rivendicare…ebbene per noi tutto questo resta un dato di fatto e un grande motivo di orgoglio. I fascisti non ci sono mai piaciuti, ne quelli che picchiano ne quelli travestiti da agnelli, lo sforzo maggiore è quello di riconoscerli….per questo non ci piace andare a parlare con Maroni. Dopo la rivolta di Rosarno, dopo i suicidi e le violenze nei CIE, dopo l’aumento della violenza trans fobica, dopo i tanti no….sembra quasi che l’agnello vada a trattare con il lupo.
In Italia si diventa antagonisti o addirittura violenti appena ci si permette di dissentire. Una volta si litigava, ci si accapigliava ma si faceva, oggi basta una parola fuori luogo che partono denunce e la delazione…come in tempi tristi prende il posto della politica.
