Alessando Sabbadini Family Records
"Shining light on Holocaust survivors' stories is key to ensure we #NeverForget.
In September, together with Centro Primo Levi, we honored the Sabbadini family and their donation to the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum of important records collected by Italian-Jewish Alessando Sabbadini, who fled to the United States in 1939 following the promulgation of the racial laws.
He was enlisted in the US army, and participated in the Allied landing at Anzio as part of the intelligence unit. He also witnessed the liberation of Rome, the Allies’ advance up the Italian peninsula, and their interaction with the Italian Resistance
The historical documents, photographs, artifacts and oral history records are a critical contribution to the collection of record of the Holocaust. 🇮🇹
