title: NOT TO FORGET - TABLE 3 - ATTACHMENT TO LAVORO

subject date: 2015-01-18

caption: SHOAH ''In front of these tombs one must not hate but nor forget''; ''...the game of war does not consist in the capture of a certain front, but in the destruction of the opponent. This is why I ordered you to mercilessly massacre any man, woman or child who does not belong to our race...'', from Hitler's speech to the Wermacht generals on 2 September 1944. In the photo: the grave of an unknown thirteen-year-old French boy shot on 24 June 1944, image and text taken from issue no. 7 of ''Lavoro'' of 13 February 1955. In the series of reports ''Not to forget'', the rotogravure had published explicit images relating to the Shoah for the first time in Italy; the event was the origin of a parliamentary debate, for which the CGIL periodical provided a summary brochure for documentary purposes, also attaching it to the magazine. The file was then withdrawn, and the publication of the reports suspended, for censorial reasons as the corpses of the victims, insultingly disfigured by the harassment they had suffered, were also visibly naked; in Italy in the 1950s, outrage against modesty could be considered more offensive than outrage against humanity. Plate 3 from ''To not forget'', a summary booklet created by Ando Gilardi (1921 - 2012) #andogilardi with extracts from the services published in the illustrated weekly magazine of the CGIL. Attachment to no. 7 of ''Lavoro'', Italy 13 February 1955.
