Sacco and Vanzetti
/ˌsækəʊ ən vænˈzeti/
/ˌsækəʊ ən vænˈzeti/
- two Italian-Americans, born in Italy, who were executed in the US in 1927 for the murder of two workers during a robbery at a Massachusetts factory, although the evidence against them was not very strong. Nicola Sacco (1891-1927) and Bartolomeo Vanzetti (1888-1927) were anarchists (= people who believe there should be no laws or government). Many people thought that they were found guilty because of their political views and there were strong protests. The city of Boston decided in 1997 to honour Sacco and Vanzetti with a statue.
萨科(Sacco)和凡泽蒂(Vanzetti):两名意大利裔美国人,生于意大利,于1927年在马萨诸塞州一家工厂发生抢劫案中谋杀了两名工人,并在美国被处决,尽管针对他们的证据并不充分。Nicola Sacco(1891-1927)和Bartolomeo Vanzetti(1888-1927)是无政府主义者。许多人以为他们的政治见解被判有罪,并且有强烈的抗议。波士顿市于1997年决定以雕像塑像萨科和凡泽蒂。
