Banana thrown at Italy's first black minister Cecile Kyenge -

In the latest racism attack, a banana was thrown at Italy's first black minister Ceceile Kyenge. Kyenge is the minister for Integration and she is originally from Democratic republic of Congo. She was speaking at a political rally in central Italy when someone in the audience threw bananas towards the stage, slightly missing it.

 This is the latest attack following a series of insults, death threats and comments. A senior member of parliament in the anti-immigration Northern League party earlier this month once compared her to an Orangutan and only apologized after several criticism. Kyenge responded to yesterday's incident on her Twitter account that the attack was sad and a waste of food, considering the economic crisis. Me like her sense of humour though,,
