<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><b style=""><span style="font-family: Times-Bold;">Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo
Vanzetti </span></b><span style="font-family: Times-Bold;">were
two Italian-born immigrants, workers, and anarchists, who were tried and
convicted in 1921 for the armed robbery and murder of two payroll guards. After
7 years of legal appeals and international protest, the two men were finally
executed on August 23, 1927 in Boston for a crime that many felt they did not
commit and by a judicial system that was patently biased and unjust.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style=""><b style=""><span style="font-family: Times-Bold;">The Sacco and Vanzetti
Commemoration Society, </span></b><span style="font-family: Times-Bold;">seeks to preserve the memory of Sacco and Vanzetti and to
honor their efforts in trying to radically change the society they lived in. We
wish to bring out their place in the history of radical Massachusetts, to help
draw useful connections between the struggle of Sacco and Vanzetti and similar
struggles today, and to inform our community about their living legacy. We
stand against the death penalty, the persecution of political dissidents, as
well as the persecution and scapegoating of immigrants. We hope that by raising
a monument to Sacco and Vanzetti in Boston’s North End, a bronze bas-relief by
the American sculptor, Gutzon Borglum, the same Borglum noted for his iconic
sculptures of four American presidents in the hills of South Dakota, we can
keep these issues fresh in the minds of our city, our state, and our nation.</span></p>
