Andrea Borella: Gli “altri” razzismi degli Stati Uniti d’America: la questione Amish
Comunità cristiana anabattista sorta sul finire del XVII secolo in Europa, gli Amish si rifugiarono in America per sfuggire alle persecuzioni religiose subite nel Vecchio Continente. Essi sono oggi circa 250000, stanziati nella maggior parte degli Stati degli USA, vivono seguendo un rigido tradizionalismo religioso. Gli Amish rappresentano dunque una realtà di rilievo da un punto di vista sia numerico sia culturale negli Stati Uniti. Gli Amish sono bianchi, provengono dall’Europa, sono cristiani e, sebbene anabattisti, le loro radici affondano nel Protestantesimo. Essi sono tuttavia vittime del razzismo. Un “altro” razzismo. Non l’avversione storicamente presente negli Stati Uniti, legata in particolar modo al colore della pelle, ma la discriminazione dovuta a principi e stili di vita alternativi, percepiti come estranei rispetto alla cultura americana e ritenuti “incompatibili” con quelli di una moderna società occidentale. Gli Amish sarebbero indegni di essere cittadini americani perché, per convinzioni religiose, in quanto anabattisti, si rifiutano di svolgere il servizio militare e di prestare giuramento, non possono studiare oltre l’ottavo grado del sistema scolastico statunitense e “impongono” ai bambini di lavorare, collaborando, con i genitori fin dalla tenera età. In questo paper cercherò di analizzare, attraverso il caso Amish, la realtà della discriminazione su basi etniche e religiose negli Stati Uniti d’America, sostenendo la tesi che il fenomeno presente in gran parte della società americana potrebbe forse essere meglio colto nella sua essenza attraverso la categoria della xenofobia, aspetto chiave della storia e dell’identità degli States, più adatta del concetto di razzismo per cercare di comprendere talune forme di avversione etnica, come quella nei confronti degli Amish.
Key Words: Amish, Razzismo, Religione, Stati Uniti d’America, Xenofobia
