From
The New York Review:
A yellow-field flag with the anti-mafia slogan (in Italian):
"vedo, sento, parlo" [English: "I see, I hear, I speak"] and a picture of Lea
Garofalo, at her funeral in Milan, Italy, (c. Oct. 19, 2013). She exposed many
shocking details of the 'Ndrangheta (mafia-like criminal organization). Although
she was killed in Nov. 2009, her hidden remains were not discovered until
several years later and buried in Oct. 2013. [This slogan echoes that of Roman
general Julius Caesar, who in 47 BC wrote: "veni, vidi, vici" ("I came, I saw, I
captured") regarding one of his military exploits.]
