It was really hard to notice the hiding-place.
-
Torelli at a certain moment told me: “Laila, what you’re doing is not enough.
-
You do so much for the partisans and for us, but you need to think about what your future will be”.
-
I replied: “Well, let’s just hope it will be a little bit better than now”.
-
He said: “If you agree, organize a meeting with all the women you work with and I’ll get a communist leader to come”.
-
To us, communists and socialists were just the same, what did we know about politics?
-
We had never got involved in it.
-
With fascism, you could only read what they gave to you, and you didn’t even have the right to make comments.
-
So before we did this meeting I met Paolo Davoli,
-
who explained how important it was for women to discuss their future.
-
After the war, women would take part in elections and have the same rights as men.
-
That was great for us.
-
At that point we understood that we could change our future,
-
that we had to be more than partisans, acquire consciousness about our role.
-
But we were really so ignorant, it was sad.
-
I set up two women support groups, we did two or three meetings.
-
This worker came, I think he was a mechanic of the factory Bloch.
-
Decision to resist
-
Torelli was an old antifascist living in our house. He was persecuted and had been in jail.
-
One day he told me he wanted to talk to me.
