Racism tearing Italian town apart A southern Italian town in the throes of some of the worst racial violence in decades has evacuated over 1,000 African immigrants following three days of clashes. The town of Rosarno in southern Calabria erupted when immigrant workers were attacked by local residents. The immigrant population rioted in response, leaving at least 53 people injured. After evacuating the workers over the weekend, authorities moved in and began demolishing their makeshift homes in their absence. Those immigrants who lack the proper paperwork face deportation from Italy, although even those with visas were also evacuated. The country is in an uproar over the events, with Interior Minister Roberto Maroni calling the violence a result of "mistaken tolerance," and the opposition equating the government's moves to "ethnic cleansing," according to Reuters. Even the pope got involved, by asking for tolerance in his weekly blessing. * in the throes of : 어려운 시기를 겪고 있는 - doing a difficult task; experiencing a difficult period or event * in someone's absence : ~의 부재중에 - while sb is not there - the fact of sb being away from a place where they are usually expected to be * in an uproar : 발칵 뒤집혀/ 한바탕 소동을 겪고 있는 - uproar: a situation in which people shout and make a lot of noise because they are angry or upset about sth/a situation in which there is a lot of public criticism and angry argument about sth that sb has said or done * ethnic cleansing : 소수 민족 추방/인종 청소 - (used especially in news reports) the policy of forcing the people of a particular race or religion to leave an area or a country 2. Egypt's pyramids not built by slaves, says archaeologist Popular culture has long depicted the Egyptian pyramids as being built by slaves, but a new discovery now indicates that they were actually constructed by free workers. Egypt's chief archaeologist, Zahi Hawass, announced on Sunday that tombs for the workers had been built alongside the main pyramids, which were the tombs of kings. Slaves would never have been able to be buried in such close proximity to royalty, said Hawass. Graffiti has also been discovered in which the workers call themselves "friends of Khufu," the name of one of the pharaohs. The tombs are 4,510 years old and can be found on the western rim of Cairo. Other evidence has also been unearthed that shows the pyramids were a national project rather than a slave-backed endeavor. According to Hawass, farmers in the region sent animals to the pyramid construction site to feed the builders, and were exempted from taxes for doing so. * in close proximity : 매우 가까운 거리에 - close[near] to a particular place or person * to unearth evidence : 증거를 발견하다 - unearth: to find sth in the ground by digging to find or discover sth by chance or after searching for it * to be exempt from taxes : 세금이 면제되다/ 면세되다 - do not have to pay taxes
