We had lunch there, some sandwiches.
-
As it was close to the first of May we decided
-
to take a piece of paper and made a flag with the lipsticks we had.
-
Then we found a stick, a piece of wood, and we secured this flag to it
-
and there we went, climbed on a pine tree and tied it there…
-
Then we left, we went away,
-
since there were people who were informers and would go see if they found us there.
-
You could sign up even if you weren’t 18 yet.
-
From that moment they taught us songs like “Bandiera Rossa” and other things, other songs
-
that people used to sing even after the war.

Clandestine communist party
-
The older comrades saw that I was interested in this situation, eager to learn and know what to do,
-
and started handing me some books.
-
I believe the one we remembered the most was Maxim Gorkij’s “The mother”.
-
I was 15or 16 years old when they started talking to us openly about the Communist Party,
-
which was the opposite of fascism,
-
and about having to get involved in the clandestine struggle, organizing people against this dictatorship,
-
since it really was a dictatorship then.
-
By the time I left San Bartolomeo I was already part of the clandestine Communist Party.
-
I had a cousin who had been incarcerated, his name was Nello Strozzi.
