Domenico ‘Mimmo’ Lucano<\/strong> is the former mayor of Riace, a small town of less than 2,000 inhabitants in southern Italy<\/strong>, known as a \u201cdying town.\u201d Its homes were abandoned, and its ancient trades faded into history.<\/p>\n

Mimmo\u2019s idea was simple: to bring life to Riace, welcome migrants<\/strong>. Mimmo resettled hundreds of migrant families, and the \u2018global village\u2019 of Riace flourished.<\/p>\n

But Mimmo made powerful enemies too.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When Italy\u2019s far-right politician Matteo Salvini came to power in 2018, he placed Mimmo under house arrest and accused Mimmo of \u201ccolonising Italy with migrants.\u201d<\/p>\n

Then, in September last year, the Italian courts sentenced Mimmo to a shocking 13 years in prison<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Following his sentence, Mimmo\u2019s defense has filed an appeal \u2014 the final chance for the courts to drop the case.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now, we are building a global coalition of citizens and parliamentarians to join his defense.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
