It is the latest incident in a series of abusive comments, death threats and insults. Earlier this month a senior parliamentarian in the anti-immigration Northern League party likened her to an orangutan. Another Northern League party member said on Facebook last month that Kyenge should be raped so she understands how victims of crimes committed by immigrants feel.

She has been living in Italy since 1983.[2] She has been married since 1994 to an Italian and has two teenage daughters named Giulia and Maisha.[3] She lives in Castelfranco Emilia.[4] She has a degree in medicine and surgery from the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Rome.[5] She is a specialist in ophthalmology at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia. In February 2013 she was elected member of the Chamber of Deputies for the Democratic Party in Emilia-Romagna. Two months later she was appointed Minister for Integration in the grand coalition government formed by Enrico Letta, becoming Italy's first black cabinet minister.

Her impressive credentials must rub the right wingers very badly. She goes against every stereotype mwafrika immigrants are supposed to fit in.
