Bartolomeo Vanzetti

Bartolomeo Vanzetti was an Italian-American anarchist and labor activist who became widely known for his controversial trial and execution in the 1920s. Accused of robbery and murder, many believed he was framed due to his political beliefs and immigrant status. Despite evidence suggesting innocence, he was convicted and executed, sparking international protests and debates about justice and bias. His case remains significant as a symbol of potential miscarriage of justice influenced by prejudice and political fear during that era.
