I am Violetta-the gypsy girl


I am the girl,who drowned on Monday together with my cousin Cristina near Naples.
The lifeguards brought us on the beach.They covered our bodies with beach towels.
People gathered around us for few minutes and then went back to take sunbath.While lying lifeless on the beach of Torregavetta,I examined my surrounding and found people chatting,eating,sipping cold drinks and even heard few laughers.
I lived all 12 years of my life in the atmosphere of racism and horror.
I am Violetta,the gipsy girl,who died before local residents of Naples attacked my camp and set fire with petrol bombs.
