Intervened live on Rai 1 during the programme “World Cup Club”Frederick Bernardeschispoke of controversy come out in recent days regarding the issue relating to civil rights and the decision by FIFA of to deny to the teams the use of the armband “One Love” as a sign of solidarity with the LGBTQI+ community.
Civil rights, Bernardeschi tough against FIFA
“I think i civil rightsthe freedom of expression and being able to choose one’s beliefs are inviolable things in life. No human being, no government, no policy, no administration of any kind must and can violate these rights. It is an abominable thing.
When civil rights are trampled on like this the world should rise up. There are people who made history who fought for civil rights and we are still here in 2022 saying: ‘Yes but maybe, but why’. No, there’s no history of civil rights, you’re on the side of justice, period. I am thrilled to say these words.”
