"We Don’t Seem to Learn and We Don’t Remember Our Own History": On the 75th Anniversary of the Execution of Sacco and Vanzetti, a Conversation with Howard Fast

On this day 75 years ago, August 23, 1927, two Italian-American anarchists Nicola Sacco and Bartalomeo Vanzetti were executed in Massachusetts. They were sentenced to death on charges of murder and robbery but many historians consider the case to be the most unjust and politically charged murder case in U.S. history.
