Angelo Grando

Professor Gary Foley and Dr Joe Toscano are joined by their old friend and comrade Angelo Grando on one of Radical Australia's earliest episodes.First broadcast on 11 September 2013 and long thought lost, Angelo's family fortunately found the recording tucked away in a box at home.Listen to Angelo's story from his childhood in Italy to migrating to Australia, the politically transformative years at Monash University in the late 1960s and 1970s, his lifelong political and close friendships with Gary and many others, and much more!A radical and fighter to the end, Angelo sadly passed away in November 2024. He is remembered for his generosity, humour and staunch radical politics, all of which you can hear in this lovely and entertaining interview.We thank Angelo's family for providing this recording so that we can remember his life and contribution to creating a better society in this country.
