Nicola Lo Calzo | Binidittu
Title: Binidittu | Or The Invisible Man
Author: Nicola Lo Calzo
Synopsis:
Binidittu explores the (in)visibility of contemporary African migrants in the Meditteranean through the exceptional, although little known, figure of Saint Benedict the Moor - Son of enslaved Africans, who became the first Modern black saint in history (Sicily 1524-1589). Binidittu questions the amnesia of Europe and Italy with respect to the historical presence of Afropeans, of which Saint Benedict the Moor is one of the most highly representative figures. Learn More
