L'altro Sudafrica (“The other South Africa” - Rome, 13 April 2013) - Letter to CasaPound Italia

Open Letter to CasaPound Italia [translation from Italian. The original text is here . Ed.]
April 3, 2013
Dear CasaPound Italia,
My name is ******* ******* (“******”) and I'm the editor of the “ volkstaat ” websites (in Italian,
English and Afrikaans) that promote the nationalist cause of the Boer volk (Boer people-nation).
http://www.volkstaat.eu/
In the past I have already written to your press office (as well as those of other Italian political
associations), to report news and/or initiatives about the Boer volk. In any case, I have never
received any kind of response from you.
