A dynamic collection of multimedia works, 'Curaggia' provides a forum for critical discourse about location and identity within Italian cultures. 'Curaggia' examines the roles of religion, language, class, race, gender, ability, and sexuality; it documents how Italian women are transforming their communities, excavating social, economic, and psychological experiences of living in Italy and abroad; and it celebrates the rich diversity of Italian women's lives. Following a tradition of perseverance forged by mothers, grandmothers, aunts, and sisters, these reflections launch the processes of naming pain, of shedding myth, stereotype, and distortion of self and other; and they move us toward exploring dreams, toward building a stronger coalition politic.
