Not only is today The International Day of Solidarity with Antifascist Prisoners, in Italy it's also the anniversary & celebration of the end of Mussolini's fascist reign.

July 25, 1943 was the day when news spread across Italy of Mussolini's arrest and his regime's downfall. That day, many Italians made enormous pasta meals to share with friends and neighbours, as a cheeky final defiant act against a dictator who, among a whole list of terrible things, tried to ban pasta! IN ITALY!

This article goes into fascinating detail about this point in history and the efforts to rekindle the tradition of pastasciutta antifascista!

Today in Labor History July 21, 1921: Hundreds of antifascist activists chased off 600 fascists in Sarzana, Italy, who were trying to free several a fascist squad from prison, after they opened fire. Led by the anti-fascist Arditi del Popolo, the people chased the fascists into the neighboring hills, killing 18 of them. Sarzana continued to be a center of partisan resistance to fascism during World War Two.
