Nov 2, 2008 - And now in the north they created a party called 'Lega Nord' to ask independence of the north. It's a racist party that discriminate people of the south and foreign people but people of the south and foreign people that they call "extra-comunitari" quite extraterrestrials created their own well-being. That's so absurd!

infovobis Says:

Nov 2, 2008 - Italians all over the world HAVE to know that when Italy was born in the 1861 15 millions people emigrated from the south of Italy becouse of the politics of the young Italian state in favour of the north. These people have to pay to emigrate and these money were used to industrialise the north. Now the south is less industrialised than the north and still now people have to emigrate from the south to the north to find a job. For some people all this genereted the mafia in the south too.

Nov 8, 2008 - Dear Jattmafia313, why are you such a moron? Nobody knows... 1. Most italians are not named ''Tony''. 2. ''Tony'' is not an Italian name, it's an English name. The Italian name is ''Antonio'' or ''Tonio''.

karnakun Says:

Nov 8, 2008 - infovobis, about the lega, they are a small minority and, seriously speaking they don't want any division. It's just politics, a way to get mass media attention.

karnakun Says:

Nov 8, 2008 - matrixio you are so fake... You are not italian or italian-american. You are just a raccist.

Nov 9, 2008 - i heard some sicialians have a little black in them

luposcorro95 Says:

Nov 10, 2008 - my nana says that this is what it was like too. i would love for it to still be like this, but the sad truth is that most italian culture has been consumed by the rest of america. like in the north end of boston, did you know that there a CHINESE food resturant there?

donnyboy305 Says:

Nov 11, 2008 - Im sicilian its not that we have black in us its that sicily is so close to africa and its very warm so sicilians are alot darker then other italians

xCAGx77 Says:

Nov 12, 2008 - hai ragione...per la maggiore parte italo-americani sono qualcosa a parte di italiani. Ma penso che tu dica la verita' e ci sono dei veri italiani qua, nel bronx...dove sei? Morris park? Perdona il mio italiano, non parlo spesso da quando sono morti i miei nonni e sono proprio un mezzo italiano

AemiliaPaulla Says:

Nov 12, 2008 - I just wanted to say that I looked up the statistics, and you're absolutely right. I had no idea that so many Italians had left Italy... but I suppose it benefitted all the parties involved.

AemiliaPaulla Says:

Nov 12, 2008 - A question... (don't take this the wrong way)... but if the gypsy Romanians "polluting" Italy bothers you, why don't YOU do something about it? It's easy to support Italy during the World Cup, but it's another thing entirely to contribute to the survival of a great land and its native people.

xCAGx77 Says:

Nov 13, 2008 - Isn't that something for the italian government to solve? It isn't like you have a civil war and need freedom fighters to come help save the day, Italy (and the EU in general) need to deal with an illegal immigration issue through strict laws, and only elected officials can put those measures in place. Though yes, it is a sad thing that Italy is dealing with the Rom

backtobasicsman Says:

Nov 16, 2008 - in the united states, about 15 million people are of italian descent, mostly living in new york and new york state, and in chicago, still the same as 50 years ago...

param84me Says:

Nov 17, 2008 - I strongly agree with this video... this is what is happening when Immigrants arrive in North America or America... There culture gets consumes up and they end-up having their kids Americanized... The whole world is changing... The whole world is Americanizing... The culture and roots are disappearing... Let's not let our roots vanish...

Nov 17, 2008 - I am glad you all enjoy this, my father marino amoruso, wrote and produced this peice, everything he says i have seen before my eyes, and its from his life story, which pretty much was all italians from the tri-state no? During my visit to bisceglie to visit my relatives i saw these traditions still living and was so happy. salute.. --brendan amoruso

chille747 Says:

Nov 24, 2008 - Hi im rob from Australia, how true, I believe its up to the us to teach our kids the traditions and hopefully it will continue.

chilliburn1 Says:

Nov 24, 2008 - This is all so true even in the Australian way of life, you can substitute the word America for Australia and it would also be spot on. Buon Apetite
