The Josefina Soria Library of the Ramón Alonso Luzzy Cultural Center hosted a talk by Nicolás Castellano on his book "My name is Adou.
The true story of the child in the suitcase that moved the world. "
During 2015 more than one million refugees and migrants entered Europe, most of them crossing the Mediterranean.
The unpublished appearance of the figure of a child inside a suitcase in the scanner of one of the Tarajal checkpoints, Ceuta, caught the attention of the police and the image shocked half the world.
That boy was Adou.
This is his moving story that denounces the arbitrariness of the Immigration laws.
This is the first of the events of the cycle "Frontiers: hostility to hospitality", which will be extended until February 9 and the presentation has been carried out by M. Jesús Achega, 2017 Volunteer Commitment Award.
