Lavori multicolori a Riace (Reggio Calabria)

Posted by Piervincenzo (Reggio Calabria, Italy) on 8 May 2009 in People & Portrait.

The headline says 'Multicolors works in Riace (Reggio Calabria)'
This is an image that it means a lot to me as it was the first time I was visiting the project 'Città Futura'. The small city of Riace, Calabria (Italy), is hosting migrants since many years now. Because of them the city stopped the people going away in other regions of Italy, the North or abroad. Because of immigration, there are now people working in the same way people of Calabria did in the past.
This is important because there are many people in Italy who think that immigration is the cause of Italians loosing their job and cultural identity.
The project in Riace has shown just the opposite.
