In January of 1950, Mary Church Terrell, an 86-year-old charter member of the NAACP, headed into Thompson’s Restaurant, just a few blocks from the White House, and requested to be served. She and her companions were informed by the manager that they could not eat in his establishment, because they were “colored.” Terrell, a former suffragette and one of the country’s first college-educated African-American women, took the matter to court.

Roma è sotto assedio. Un lungo assedio criminale che comincia già dopo la breccia di Porta Pia, con l’imponente lottizzazione e con gli scandali della Banca Romana; si rafforza con la presenza di mafiosi di caratura internazionale dediti allo spaccio di droga dopo la fine della Seconda guerra mondiale; si organizza con la comparsa della banda della Magliana e infine dilaga con l’inchiesta Mafia Capitale, che ha puntato i riflettori su un’associazione a delinquere arrivata al cuore della politica e dell’amministrazione capitolina, e che tuttavia la Corte di cassazione non ha ritenuto di qualificare come mafia.
