Black Nativity
Northern Italians Want a ‘White’ Christmas

In fair (I guess meaning white) Verona, where we lay our scene

from ancient grudge to stupidity

Where uncivil hearts make civil hands wring…

Okay, enough of that.  Jim got me in a poetic frame of mind in the last post.

A nativity scene featuring a dark-skinned Jesus, Mary, and Joseph has tempers hot in Verona, Italy.  The decoration has gone on display at a courthouse, and anti-immigration nuts are paying attention, particularly those in the conservative “White Christmas” party, The Northern League.  They have been hell bent on purging undocumented immigrants from North Africa and Eastern Europe.

A League member calls the Nativity, “a provocation.”

Tee, hee, hee.  “Nuh. Uh”…was basically the response of the man responsible for the display…

–That being Mario Giulio Schinaia, the chief Public Prosecutor.

History teaches us that baby Jesus and his parents were very probably dark-skinned.  This nativity belongs to a universal Christmas tradition that brings together the whole of Christianity in celebration…”

“There shouldn’t be a white or black Christmas, only a merry Christmas for everyone, of every skin color, ethnic background and nationality.”

Good answer.  Good answer.

And Merry Christmas you Northern League ass wipes!
