E 'being built the meeting-debate Habari! Tragicomic journey from the slums of Nairobi self-occupied Italy.
This is a lab project with lyrics and music (African drumming) from Valentina Acava Mmaka and Peter Kuria Asamba who want to focus on the contradictions of Italy today and reflect on common themes (racism, work , art, poverty, lifestyle, youth, school etc ...) told from a perspective internal to Africa, specifically in Kenya. The project is aimed at a diverse audience, including high school students who will benefit from this contribution as an opportunity to exchange and compare the intercultural issues paving the way to overcome the prejudices that surround the continent of Africa and its citizens in Italy. The idea
course of the meeting is based on the principle that Africa can not be explained, Africa must be told.
The narrative text in Italian and Kiswahili, and modulated by rhythmic percussion, deals with "lightness" irony and the contradictions and tragedies of today's multi-ethnic society offering food for thought for a dialogue of many voices.
