Resum

The paper gathers reflections about the expression, more and more frequently used, “give voice to” or “give voice to”. Starting from the etymology of the verb “give”, the nuances and meanings contained in this expression are addressed. It is revealed that the good intention to give the voice can remain in an act of solidarity or charity, in a way to reproduce the already existing domination. The way is opened to suppress the expression “give voice to” by other forms that refer to the participation, recognition and presentation of those who have a voice, but who cannot speak or are heard. Listening is presented as an act of recognition, an ethical-political act and an act of emancipation.
