Having lived there, Italy is racist in a different way where even the southern half of Italy is referred to by a lot of Northerners as monkeys. A bit like the UK does the other way around, but far stronger.
It'll take some effort but understand the quote by the artist and the perspective in Italy:
"I've always been painting monkeys for five to six years, so I thought I'd make this work to teach that we're all apes, I made the western monkey with blue and white eyes, the Asian monkey with almond-shaped eyes and the black monkey positioned in the centre, where everything comes from. The monkey becomes the spark to teach everyone that there is no difference, there is no man or monkey, we are all alike. If anything we are all monkeys."
This is an antiracist in Italy. We wouldn't go there because we really wouldn't have to. |  |

Refreshing to read someone on here making an effort to understand and debate the topic rather than shutting it down. |  |

He usually does try to be fair.
It's just that no one listens and he gets shouted down. | |
