Roma’s Radia Nainggolan presents a copy of Anne Frank’s diary prior to the start of a Serie A soccer match between Roma and Crotone, at Rome’s Olympic Stadium, Wednesday, Oct. 25, 2017. Anne Frank’s diary will be read aloud at all soccer matches in Italy this week, the Italian soccer federation announced Tuesday after shocking displays of anti-Semitism by fans of the Rome club Lazio. Lazio supporters on Sunday littered the Stadio Olimpico in Rome with images of Anne Frank, the young diarist who died in the Holocaust, wearing a jersey of city rival Roma. The ultra right-wing fans of Lazio associate their Roma counterparts with being left-wing and Jewish, and had hoped to incite Roma fans, since the teams share the same stadium.
