In our exploration of the stereotypes specific to Italy, we often confronted the idea of race, especially in relation to Italy’s colonial histories, Italian emigration, and those from the Italian South. In your response work, choose one stereotype that you believe exemplifies the construction of race in the context of Italy. Why did you choose this example? What or whose race is being constructed and by whom? How might this stereotype inform, or even authorize, racism? What, if any, means have developed to protest and/or resist this stereotyping?
