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

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...

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...

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

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.

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.

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
