Address: Rinkeby Skolan, Rinkebystråket 53, Stockholm.

This mural is located inside Rinkeby Skolan, and is easily seen from the main gate to the building. It represents the multiethnic and multicultural characteristics of the school's student body. In the recent years, these characteristics have turned out to be of utmost value for Sweden. To give a renowned example, each year the Nobel Committee takes the Nobel laureates to Rinkeby. As part of this occasion, the students of Rinkeby Skolan meet the Nobel laureate in Literature. The preparation for this meeting is usually the task of students from grade 8. They first study the life of Alfred Nobel and the work of the Nobel foundation. When the prize winner is announced they search out facts about her/his life and start to read some of her/his work. But they also read books of previous laureates, especially from the various home countries of the students. Then they compose a small book about the Nobel foundation, about their readings and about themselves, consisting of personal stories or poems and pictures, which they want to share with the author. This is translated into the mother tongue of the laureate and sometimes sent to her/him together with the letter of invitation to the meeting (also written by the students). The meeting is often held at the Rinkeby school library, but sometimes it takes place in a public library in Stockholm. At the meeting the students put questions to the laureate, questions that they have formulated during their preparatory work.

A memorable meeting took place when Vidiadhar Naipaul got the Nobel Prize in 2001. The students who were at the meeting developed a rather critical attitude towards him, on the basis of what they found out about his writings. Among other things, his negative opinions about religion in general—and about Islam in particular—offended some students. Naipaul, however, was very friendly at the meeting and was clearly touched when the children read aloud their poems and personal stories from the book given to him. He evidently appreciated the meeting: on his way out of the country, he said it was the most important thing that happened during his visit to Sweden. The positive turn of the whole event made the students realize how they had been influenced by the media's presentation of a particular image for Naipaul and how such image can differ from reality.
