Just a correction:
> mostly to older people, migrants and the Roma
I think they misinterpreted this part. "The Roma" does not make much sense. I think the person they talked to said "the rom" (that in English may sound like gipsy). They are a very spread ethnicity in Naples (and around Naples) and the majority of them are poor people who panhandle around to make some money.
- inhumanfly 12y agoAs an italian I was about to point out the same thing. Thanks for your correction. The roms (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romani_people) are spread through all Europe and are not a Neapolitan only phenomenon. Shame for NYT for not doing their homeworks.
