The small wooden building, painted in black and white, was donated by Rosa Parks' granddaughter to the American artist Ryan Mendoza to save it from demolition; the Royal Palace of Naples is the first institutional place to welcome it and make it “Almost home”, almost home, in the hope that one day, properly welcomed, it will return to Detroit.
