ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR NAME. SIERRA TRUCKEE. DIRK VERDOORN TWIN CITIES ROAD. I’M DEIRDRE FITZPATRICK REPORTING IN ROME. WHAT AM I DOING IN ROME? WELL, THAT IS A LONG STORY. AND IT BEGINS FIVE YEARS AGO. IT STARTED WITH A FACEBOOK MESSAGE. NOVEMBER OF 2019. I’M NOT SURE IF YOU READ THIS MESSAGES GIVING IT A TRY. I’M A DAUGHTER OF A HOLOCAUST SURVIVOR AND RABBI. YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO GOOGLE HER NAME OR BUCCI SISTERS. I DID, AND I COULDN’T BELIEVE WHAT I READ. ANDREW BUCCI AND HER SISTER TATIANA WERE JUST FOUR AND SIX WHEN THEY WERE DEPORTED FROM ITALY AND SENT TO THE AUSCHWITZ CONCENTRATION CAMP. THEY ARE JUST TWO OF 50 CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF EIGHT. TO SURVIVE A PLACE WHERE 1.1 MILLION PEOPLE WERE KILLED. THEIRS IS A STORY OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY, A MOTHER’S INSTINCT AND LUCK. SHE NOW MOVED HERE IN SACRAMENTO. MAYBE SOMEONE MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN TALKING TO HER AND THAT’S WHAT STARTED A FIVE YEAR JOURNEY. WE STARTED BY FOLLOWING A MOTHER AND DAUGHTER RUNNING THE CALIFORNIA INTERNATIONAL MARATHON. THEN CAME A GLOBAL PANDEMIC, AND THEN ULTIMATELY, FOLLOWING A FAMILY ACROSS THE OCEAN TO ITALY, TO POLAND, DOCUMENTING HOW THE BUCCI SISTERS TELL THEIR STORY OVER AND OVER AGAIN TO WHEN THE NAZI CAME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. EVERYBODY WAS ASLEEP. THEY REALLY DIDN’T KNOW WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO HER AND HER SISTER. SHE WAS ONLY FOUR YEARS OLD. WE ORGANIZED EVERY YEAR THE TRAVEL FOR THE MEMORY. YOU’VE DONE SO MANY OF THESE MEMORY TRIPS. I THINK ALMOST 40, 40 TRIPS. YEAH, THAT’S A LOT OF STUDENTS. YES. YEAH. WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT TO DO THEM? THEY’RE NOT EASY, BUT. ANCHE SE TARDI CHE TEMPO TANTI ANNI. PERCHÉ GIUSTO SAPERE PERCHÉ GIUSTO SAPERE QUELLO CHE SUCCESSO COME WITH US INTO THE MEMORY OF TWO ITALIAN SISTERS WHO SURVIVED ONE OF HUMANITY’S DARKEST TIMES, AND WHO VOLUNTARILY REVISITED WITH YOUNGER GENERATIONS IN THE HOPES THAT HISTORY WILL NOT REPEAT. ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR NAME AIRS NEXT SUNDAY, THE 27TH, AT 9 P.M. IT’S AFTER TH
