The youngest one was like 16-17 years old.
-
That night from the Ghiardo we could see the fire in Scampate, since they were burning down all the houses like that.
-
Strike on the 1st of March 1944
-
Then we organized the strike on 1st of March.
-
There had already been some in other places.
-
I was a member of the committee who prepared the strike,
-
we got together quite a few times,
-
the last meeting was at my house.
-
My father agreed, so we had the meeting and assigned the tasks.
-
Alberta and I got together early in the morning (we had already handed out all the leaflets)
-
and went to Montecavolo, stopping by all the farmers’ homes who were milking the cows,
-
and telling them “remember that there’s a strike later, after you take the milk to the dairy, join in”.
-
“Alright, yes, we’ll be there”, they replied.
-
And we gathered together. The strike went well.
-
The farmers (in Montecavolo there were mostly farmers) and some factory workers, went on strike,
-
so the strike in Montecavolo was a success.
-
The strike was against the war, against all the things they were doing to us, against hunger too.
-
They were taking everything from us, we pooled wheat.
-
Farmers had to bring wine, grapes, everything, they were taking everything.
-
That’s why afterwards there were even some casualties
