Fumetto antimafia
Antimafia explained in a comics
Here’s the secondo edition of “Mafie in Emilia illustrate per ragazzi” (Mafia in Emilia explained to kids). This is a project through which we tried to explain the phenomenon to children and teenagers using comics as a common language. This new edition contains many updates on Aemilia ongoing trial.
Georgia Vecchione gave us the comics and we’re spreading it to schools, libraries and more. As Gesualdo Bufalino said once: “Mafia will be defeated by a troop of teachers”.
