Reminding that Carducci is the high school next to Piazzale Loreto, where Benito Mussolini was hanged upside down by partisans, Di Mario said, “Educational subjects are taught meticulously in this school, but I always say that Carducci is also a school of politics, because students here. they have the opportunity to learn about the cult of representation, about confrontation”. “We want to do this together by learning, creating new forms, without getting stuck in the old, worn and dreary languages that raise the walls. Carducciano is meticulous and does not accept the logic of a violent curve,” he added.
