A waiter said "Sorry Benito" to a
framed picture of Fascist dictator Mussolini after serving black
clients in a pizzeria in Rimini on Sunday, the
Senegalese-Italian family reported on Facebook Thursday.
The family, from Imola, said "this is a surreal episode on the
eve of 2021, a waiter who apologises to Mussolini for having
customers with black skin".
They reported the incident to Carabinieri in Imola.
Mussolini issued racial laws against Jews.
"For that Fascist salute, I was offended not as a black woman,
but as an Italian," said the woman who reported the case, who
was born in Italy and has an Italian grandmother.
