#AgituGudeta is trending in Italy, after she was found in her home, beaten to death, over a dispute regarding money. The perpetrator took advantage of her body the few moments before the light disappeared from her eyes.
She had found a home in Trentino, after leaving Ethiopia because her pastoral land was taken by multinational corporations. But in Italy, she faced continued hostilities: "They insult me, they call me ugly n*****. They tell me to leave because this is not my place," she had said.
She was an entrepreneur, had founded an organic farm where she produced fresh goat's cheese, yogurt and milk. She was known as 'the queen of the happy goats'. 
"Simbolo di integrazione" non si può sentire. 1) Agitu Gudeta era apprezzata per l'attività creata ma ha anche ricevuto insulti razzisti minacce aggressioni. Da un VICINO. Non può esistere integrazione a senso unico, accanto chi non ti rispetta o ti odia. #AgituGudeta
2) Definire Agitu Gudeta "simbolo d'integrazione" sottende che l'odio razziale da lei subito fosse l'eccezione- deviazione dalla norma della buona convivenza. Troppo facile e assolutorio quando si teme un omicidio di stampo razzista.
3) E infine molto semplicemente. È stata uccisa una donna, non un simbolo.
