Selects: The Case of Sacco and Vanzetti

This podcast episode explores the trial of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, two Italian immigrants and anarchists who were convicted of murdering two men during a robbery in Massachusetts in 1920. The trial was highly controversial and widely seen as unfair, due to the lack of solid evidence against the defendants and the fact that they were targeted because of their political beliefs. Despite the protests and international outcry, Sacco and Vanzetti were executed in 1927, sparking a legacy of debate about their guilt or innocence that continues to this day.
