This year too it will be a great demonstration, which will symbolically begin with a tribute to the Mausoleum of the Martyrs of the Fosse Ardeatine, and then we will gather in the concentration camp in Largo B.

Many of these organizations will bring their contribution during the procession through the intervention of their own and their representatives according to a principle of rotation. Significantly, the speeches by the National Association of Persecuted Italian Anti-Fascist Politicians (ANPPIA) and by LIBERA once morest the mafias will open the event in Largo Bompiani.
The procession will start at 10.00 from Largo B. Bompiani to cross the popular neighborhoods of Tor Marancia, Garbatella and Ostiense, scene of the battle of 8/9 September 1943, until arriving at Porta San Paolo, a symbol of the beginning of the War of Liberation.
Three more rallies will be held during the breaks in the procession, starting with the students of UDS and Rete Studenti Medi who will give voice to the world of school in the current context characterized by a strong attack on freedom of teaching and the founding values of anti-fascism.
