This article examines an artivist intervention undertaken by the Italian transfeminist collective Non Una di Meno (Not One Less) in Milan. On March 8, 2019, when the collective marked the statue of well-known journalist Indro Montanelli with pink paint, they also marked out a space of reckoning with the racism and misogyny of Italian colonialism. Foregrounding the perspective of writer Igiaba Scego, this article traces the public reconsideration of Montanelli’s legacy in light of his treatment of a young Black girl named Destà under Italian colonial rule. Recentering Destà in this history has emphasized the corporeal politics of postcolonial Italy, sparked conversations about intersectional coalitions, and mapped out pathways for further decolonial activism. A diverse group of activists, artivists, public intellectuals, engaged citizens, decolonial collectives, and communities impacted by racism are not merely recuperating one colonized person’s history, but organizing in her name for a more just future.
