Bittere Orangen. Ein neues Gesicht der Sklaverei in Europa. – Lesung mit Gilles Reckinger

Many people from African countries who had pinned their hopes on a free life in Europe never made it out of Italy. They are stuck in a new dead end: the southern Italian orange plantations. Without papers or rights, openly despised by the population, housed in slums and far from any medical care, they pick oranges 12 hours a day. Gilles Reckinger has repeatedly traveled to Rosarno, a small town at the tip of Italy's boot, to document the working and living conditions of the migrant harvest workers. He returned to Rosarno years later for the new edition of his highly acclaimed book.

In addition to the reading, there will also be an opportunity to view the exhibition in the foyer.
