Po
I AM AN ITALIAN AMERICAN…
My roots are deep in an ancient soil drenched by the Mediterranean sun, and watered by pure streams from snow capped mountains. I am
enriched by thousands of years of culture. My hands are those of the mason, the artist, the man of the soil. My thoughts have been
recorded in the annals of Rome, and the poetry of Virgil, the creations of Dante, and the philosophy of Benedetto Croce.
I am an Italian American and from an ancient world, I first spanned the seas to the new world. I am Christoforo Colombo.
I am Giovanni Caboto known in American history as John Cabot, discoverer of the mainland of North America.
I am Amerigo Vespucci, who gave my name to the new world, America.
The first to sail on the Great Lakes in 1679, founder of the territory that became the State of Illinois, colonizer of Louisiana and Arkansas, I
am Enrico Tonti.
I am Filippo Mazzei, friend of Thomas Jefferson and my thesis on the equality of man was written into the Bill of Rights.
I am William Paca, signer of the Declaration of Independence.
I am an Italian American. I financed the Northwest Expedition of George Rogers Clark and accompanied him through the lands that would
become Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan. I am Colonel Francesco Vigo.
I mapped the Pacific from Mexico to Alaska and to the Philippines. I am Alessandro Malaspina.
I am Rita Levi-Montalcini, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize for Physiology.
I am Giacomo Beltrami, discoverer of the source of the Mississippi River in 1823
I painted the Apotheosis of George Washington in the Rotunda of the United Sates Capitol and the Frieze of American History. The called
me the Michelangelo of America. I am Constatntino Brumidi.
In 1904 I founded in the San Francisco, the Bank of Italy now known as the Bank of America, the largest financial institution in the world.
I am A.P. Giannini.
I am Mother Francesca Cabrini the first U.S. Citizen to be canonized by the Church of Rome.
I am Enrico Fermi, father of nuclear science in America.
I am John Basilone, the first enlisted Marine and only man to receive the Medal of Honor for action (1943) in the U.S. Army and a second
one later for action (1945) in the U.S. Navy, (posthumously) the two most highest military honors that can be bestowed upon any
individual.
I am Ellen Tambussi Grasso the fourth female governor in the United States and first female governor of Connecticut.
I am an Italian American. I am the million strong who served in America’s armies and the tens of thousands whose names are enshrined in
military cemeteries from Guadalcanal to the Rhine. I am the steel maker in Pittsburgh, the grower in the Imperial Valley of California, the
Textile designer in Manhattan, the movie maker in Hollywood, the home maker and the breadwinner in 10,000 communities.
I am an American without stint or reservation, loving this land as only one who understands history, its agonies and its triumphs can love it
and serve it. I will not be told that my contribution is any less nor my role not as worth as that of any other American. I will stand in
support of this nation’s freedom and promise against all foes. My heritage has dedicated me to this nation. I am proud of my full heritage
and I shall remain worthy of it.
I am an Italian American. Submitted by Al Saccavino
