We listened Vahid in the rain, along with more than ten thousand giovani.che had gathered in Piazza San Carlo in Turin, at the Third Meeting of the World Youth Peace . Its history, there is suggesting in recent days the demonstrations in Tunisia, Algeria and Egypt : despair, anger and hope that drives many people to get off the streets to ask a colorful world, knowing that in that place anything can happen. In recent weeks Cairo, Tunis, Algiers, Abidjan , there seemed a bit 'closer: the square of the Arsenal boys talk so much of what is happening in their countries of origin . It 's something that looks from afar, but live in : even though hundreds of miles away that is their homes, their land .
A PRISON WITHOUT BARS
Perhaps the Greens would become his favorite color. Too bad that now Vahid see all black, the boundaries have disappeared, the lights and shades, which have remained only so many shadows. all because of her desire to live in a world of color. not take it anymore to live in a society where everything was in black and white like old televisions, and then along with many more young Iranians have accepted to live a life where she left the house when he did not know whether there would be back. 
When these guys close behind the front door to go to a event, the hug to mom and dad is always a bit 'longer than normal, not enough to simply say hello. live in a system where everything is planned, calculated, organized, banned from . From the shoes to hair cutting. Young Italians, he says, do not hold up even five minutes to a life like that. In what language should be written the book to read before bedtime, what kind of music to listen to, which girl to love. No need to think about it, someone upstairs decides. Obviously the God in whom to believe, as if he had stolen the soul: if someone wants to convert and change his religion is buried up to her neck and stoned. Official statistics do not tell the way down how things are: there are entire populations that find themselves living in a prison without bars, where the air lasts hours briefcase, but where in reality the air to breathe becomes every day less.

Although he did not see anything, look in the eyes Vahid means lost in the light of who has a world inside. If you see him on the street sitting on a bench, you might wonder What makes us so young boy with a stick. If it's the latest fashion, a system that does not know what to invent to sell something, or guys who do not know what to get him to show that they exist. Vahid stick that holds him as the most precious thing . knows his sound. Beat at every stage to say whether to turn right or left, if you must stop and turn back or you can go ahead. 
For Vahid is a sweet sound because for him it means to go it alone, be independent, not having to be led around by the hand as children. Better to have the stick as the old, then. Vahid must also remember very well a different noise. It was in the midst of so many other guys like him do not accept the world in black and white told by Iranian newspapers, were walking peacefully to tell everyone that wanted to be free to speak in the dialect of their region. Maybe he did not hear the shot from the gun, but the bullet that hit him must have done a lot of noise inside his head. Awoke after eleven days in hospital and everything was black. beginning must have thought that the government had become so powerful that it will disappear as well as books and music had managed to do the same with the colors, like a bad fairy tale . E 'come in Italy with a visa for medical treatment, and hope to come back to see the blue sky, his home and his land.

But it turned out really bad as in the fable : someone had indeed stolen Persempre colors. now speaks, remembers, he says, because he can not keep it all in, but finding someone who speaks his language in Europe is almost impossible. And 'as if that shot had forever condemned to live in that procession, along with those guys that after the hotly contested elections in June 2009 confirmed Ahmadinejad as president of the Islamic Republic of Iran, chose the color green as a wave that will not stop before any ban. 
Iran is a country full of young people: 70% of the population is under thirty years, but Iranian youth are considered hazardous by the government for their culture. guys checked everywhere from bars invisible when they are down the street and someone follows them, when they use the phone and someone hears them when they go on the internet and some sites seem to have disappeared from the face of the Earth , wherever they find many small walls prevent it from said everything would be talk about, and know everything that is happening in their country as the rest of the world. For this reason, every time I have marched for freedom and human rights, the police use batons and rifles . Vahid said he was more than once taken and beaten all over his body to be taken away. He says that "the signs they leave you because they want to remember what it means to go against the government", was twice in prison, and had the chance to go home, while many boys who had been detained by police as he now does not there are more.

And lived happily ever
Vahid says all this in front of thousands of young people from all over Italy, who are meeting in Turin during the third round of the Youth for Peace. Vahid does not see them but feel their silence and hear the sound of rain, all wet but it does not go away no one. The n Iran could not have done, and could not say everything they have said, because someone would come with guns and sticks. 
Vahid also speaks on behalf of all those kids who have been arrested, beaten, tortured and killed. Crushed by someone so powerful that they can afford to take life, freedom, the soul, the voice, the colors, thousands of young . Someone who has so afraid of the unarmed crowd ever to pull out of sticks and rifles. Vahid has now found the strength to give it a happy ending to what is perhaps a bad story for real, and has chosen to live happily even without color. He feels lucky to simply be alive, and says he does not want to stop, they do not want to waste time. Vahid chose to continue fighting, because even if they stole the colors do not ever steal the soul.
