Translated Details regarding Miriam Makeba's Last Day for those who like TIM/too much info

edit

Reknown anti-Camorra writer Roberto Saviano participated in a concert in Castelvolturno where recent Camorra assasinations of innocent civilians took place. Perhaps angry about immigrant drug dealers cutting in on their turf in general, on September 18, 2008 members of the local Camorra shot and killed six immigrants of African descent who were working in a store selling ethnic products in Castelvolturno. [1] Violent riots erupted among immigrants and locals prompting Italy's Minister of the Interior to dispatch 400 law enforcement agents to help keep the peace in Castelvolturno as well as other affected areas in the province of Caserta.[2][3] Another victim was Domenico Noviello.[4] A few days before 9 November 2008, an Italian journalist telephoned Miriam Makeba in Amsterdam for an interview, however, Makeba replied that she was sorry because she was too exhausted and didn't have the strength to grant the interview. Days later she found the energy to talk about Roberto Saviano, her tremendous love for Nelson Mandela, and the new hope of Barack Obama.[5] The morning of 9 November 2008, Makeba agreed to sing for the sons and daughters of immigrants staying at a local charitable organization and shelter in Castelvolturno, Centro Fernandes (www.centrofernandes.it), where she also posed for pictures and exchanged hugs with the crowds. She stayed at Centro Fernandes until 1pm. She retired to her hotel room until 9:30pm when she arrived backstage at the concert.

Organizers and the construction crew working on Miriam Makeba's last concert in Castelvolturno were threatened by members of the Camorra to pay 2000 euros for the anti-Camorra concert to go on without incident;shaken organizers bravely refused to pay the Camorra and contacted Carabinieri police officers to ensure safety during the concert.[6] Makeba performed for around an hour. [4] Ms. Makeba had requested an English version of Saviano's book, "Gomorrah" from one of the concert's organizers, Corrado Gabriele. As the last notes of Ms. Makeba's grand finale, "Pata Pata," played, Gabriele and another organizer, Maria Nazionale, began climbing on the stage to present Ms. Makeba the requested book with an inscription of hope that all Africans would be able to feel happy and free in Italy. Makeba fell on the stage to the horror of the terrified and worried audience. Someone in the crowd shouted words of encouragement like, "Come on, you can make it!" [4] When Miriam Makeba arrived at Pineta Grande Clinic she was surrounded by her entourage. She seemed to be feeling better as for the most part she regained her pulse, however, after drinking some cognac she suffered a second heart attack, that one being fatal.[4]
