On this day, 30 June 1960, workers in Genoa, Italy, rose up against a conference of the neo-fascist party, the Movimento Sociale Italiano (MSI), which was due to take place in the city the following day.
Only 15 years prior, the population of Genoa had launched an uprising, which succeeded in liberating it from fascist rule. Many residents, including former partisans who fought against the fascists and N***s during World War II, were outraged both by fascists being back in government, as part of a coalition with the right-wing Christian Democrats, and by their attempting to hold a congress in their anti-fascist city.
Therefore, thousands of demonstrators took to the streets, including large numbers of dockworkers and partisan veterans. Police with armoured cars, on horseback, wielding batons, and backed up by the military-run Carabinieri, attacked the crowd. But the move backfired. The crowd fought back, and local residents in their apartments hurled household objects down on the heads of the police.
After hours of fierce fighting, the fascists were forced to admit defeat, cancel their conference and head home.
Similar anti-fascist protests then broke out around the country. And despite police killing significant numbers of demonstrators, including former partisans, protests continued and by July, the prime minister was forced to resign and the right-wing coalition government was brought down.
