In memory of Zaira Cohen Righi . This morning in Sassari the gathering, in Piazza d'Italia, for the Azuni professor victim of the racial laws and then killed in Auschwitz in 1944.

In front of her home, where she lived with her husband from Sassari, there is the stumbling stone placed in her memory in 2021, the first in Sardinia. Present at the meeting, among others, the prefect Grazia La Fauci, the mayor Giuseppe Mascia, the extraordinary commissioner of the Metropolitan City Gavino Arru, and the civil and military authorities of the province.

"Let us remember - said the mayor - that today we are fortunate to live in a time that has been denied to others". "It is an honor for Sassari - declared the prefect - that the first stumbling block of the Island was placed here" . "Let us be vigilant - so Arru - because today we feel the possibility that that past could return".

Carla Pasca, a reference for the Inner Wheel who promoted the laying of the stone 4 years ago, recalled the importance of "knowing, questioning and not forgetting".
