@HardcoreHistory I gave you a shoutout in the latest History on Fire episode (about the 1891 New Orleans lynching, Italian immigration, and Columbus Day). I mentioned the Sacco and Vanzetti trial and the Red Scare, so I gave a shoutout to your Radical Thoughts episode (HH 40)

If you want a book written by a serious intellectual who doesn’t indulge in frivolity and doesn't spend his time flexing his biceps in the mirror... I'm afraid this is the wrong book. My novel is out in Italian, but will be out in English some time before Christmas.

Excited to see it
The reviews are in: “C.E. Massari is an incredible writer. In THE MAFIA VS THE KLAN, imagination and family history come together to deliver a hard-hitting, intense story. Massari never disappoints. Check him out!” - @DBolelli kickstarter.com/projects/cem…

Today is a special day for me. My first historical fiction novel was released by one of the best publishers in Italy. The English version is due soon (hopefully by Nov). I truly put blood and soul in this work.

The one quality I value most in any human being is not intellectual brilliance, or toughness, or the ability to accomplish great things. It's kindness. Not only is kindness beautiful in a way that requires no explanation, but it also tells me something about a person's strength.

New bonus episode for paying subscribers on Patreon or Substack.
Success is a strange beast. Some people accomplish a lot, but remain hungry ghosts constantly needing more external validation. Others may not seem to achieve as much, but are perfectly fulfilled.

On August 6, 1924, in the woods near Rome, someone discovered the decomposed body of Socialist politician Giacomo Matteotti.

So, the fascist solution to the problem was simple: some of them kidnapped and murdered Matteotti. Mussolini gladly took responsibility for everything that happened, dismissed Parliament and announced he’d become Italy’s dictator.
