A frequent point of discussion is the exhausting wait that forces them to put their lives on hold while the authorities evaluate their asylum requests.
To obtain a permit of stay you must have residence, but many of us have no stable home. Some years ago the authorities decided to recognise San Ferdinando as an official residence. San Ferdinando was subsequently transformed into a bona fide ghetto, which every year continues to attract migrants who simply want to request refugee status, and in the meantime they slowly become slaves for the farmers.
This is not the Europe that Thierno and his friends dreamed about, nor is it the Italy for which they risked death in the desert, torture in Libya, or drowning at sea, to reach. Asuma Yaw, a year-old Ghanaian, lives next door to Thierno. My only hope is my daughter. What would I say to her if one day she told me that she wanted to come to Europe?

They are survivors of an illegal camp like San Ferdinando, which for four years had housed exploited African migrants during the olive harvest. That camp was razed by the authorities because of mounting concerns about health. Today, the survivors of that camp have moved into abandoned buildings in the surrounding countryside. But the locals have closed their doors. Asuma Yaw, who is a builder, waits for a call from his wife and daughter, who has nearly finished college.
