The Social Communication Project

In the heart of the Milan shopping district we stumbled upon an exhibit called, "The Social Communication Project." What first caught my attention was pictures depicting the mafia. Upon closer inspection I realized it was a campaign encouraging people to stand up against the mafia! I've had quite a few conversation about the mafia with various Italians friends after this encounter. They've told me about the corruption in the south and a reality that the mafia is still interlaced in their government. Que mal!
The banana signifies the cause of trouble. Or something to that end.




"Do not be afraid of teasing the Mafia."


The mafia posters are what first caught my attention but the social communication project had exhibits of so many different campaigns. It was really cool because most of them were slightly obscure. The exhibits were creative and really got people attention. There was a whole sidewalk length of exhibits.
Raising awareness of the extinction of Tigers
The poverty compared to America...
