The Colour Of Our Children
Description:... Introducing "The Color of Our Children" - a research book that explores cultural diversity in Italian schools through a case study of the children of African immigrants in Veneto schools.
This book is the conclusion of a three-part research project that delves into the presence of Africans in northern Italy, spanning a period of 35-40 years. The project, titled "The Journey - Africans in Verona," was realized by the author between 2013 and 2018, and the findings have been compiled into two must-read books, (The Color of Our Children) and a previous book from the project (The Journey- Africans in Verona).
"The Color of Our Children" is a thought-provoking and eye-opening exploration of the challenges faced by immigrant children in Italian schools, and the discrimination they often encounter. Through in-depth analysis and personal stories, this book shines a light on the struggles of these children and offers practical solutions to overcome discrimination and promote inclusivity in the Italian school system.
With chapters dedicated to topics such as: the psychological effects of discrimination, the difficulties faced by African immigrant families, and the dangers of a single story in Italian schools, this book provides a comprehensive examination of the issues of discrimination and inclusiveness in the Italian school system.
The book offers actionable recommendations for promoting intercultural exchange in the school and how to overcome the challenges that immigrant children face.
"The Color of Our Children" is a must-read for educators, policymakers, and anyone interested in promoting diversity, inclusivity, and social justice within the school system. It is a call to action for all of us to work towards creating a more inclusive and tolerant society, where all children can thrive.
