E80: Italian resistance, part 4

E80: Italian resistance, part 4

Author: Working Class History October 4, 2023 Duration: 36:45
The fourth and final episode of our podcast series on the Italian resistance to fascism in conversation with anti-fascist partisans themselves.
In this episode, we look at the postwar anti-fascist resistance: from armed partisan rebellions and the so-called ‘Triangle of Death’ to the 1960 anti-Tambroni riots in Genoa, as well as how the resistance is (mis)remembered today.
