8/23: Sacco and Vanzetti Commemoration

On Saturday, 23 August, we will join in marking the 81st anniversary of the execution of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, two Italian immigrants and committed anarchists whose trial is widely regarded as one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in American history.

To call attention to the continued repression of immigrants and radicals, we will join the Sacco and Vanzetti Commemoration Society (SVCS) in its third annual march and rally. The day's events begin with a 1 pm gathering in Copley Square, followed by a march to the North End at 3 pm, and concluding with a 5 pm rally at the Paul Revere Mall (416 Hanover St.), featuring a number of speakers, including Boston City Councilor Chuck Turner.
