Cecile Kyenge
Italy's Integration government minister, Cecile Kyenge, the first
black person to hold the post, was subjected to cruel racial abuse and
hatred, as bananas were thrown at her - a slur for black people. The
incident occurred last week during a speech at a rally, where Kyenge,
born in Congo, Kyenge, was pelted with fruit by racists, angry about
immigration from North Africa to Italy.
Blood covered mannequins were also left outside her office as apart
of a death threat. It is regrettable that in this day and age, some are
still intolerant regarding matters of race. Skin color does not make
anyone superior or inferior. We are all equal as human beings.
