At nineteen, I made a promise to my eighty-three-year-old grandfather: I would one day tell his story and set the record straight. Fifty-five years later, this is that book—and I was that boy. I had imagined a simple tribute to the man I loved, something like the letter our family received eight months after his death in 1979.
From the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Arts and Sciences, it praised Professor Emilio Goggio as “a prime example of the professor with wide interests…the kind of figure that is so desirable today.” But the truth is more complicated. In life, my grandfather’s ideals often made him anything but desirable. His outspoken multiculturalism and early embrace of fascism—landed him not accolades, but imprisonment.
In the tense years before Italy’s invasion of Africa, and later during World War II, he was arrested and held as an enemy alien in Toronto. This is the real story—not just of a beloved professor, but of a man whose convictions put everything he loved at risk.
