A DISGRACE – America’s Worst Mayor

He changed his name from Warren Wilhelm Jr. to Bill de Blasio. Although silent as to his reasons, most pundits point to his desire to curry favor with Italian Americans, but he has done nothing but harm to our traditions. He is a mass of contradictions who is supposed to lead American’s number one city, instead, he is led around on a leash by his wife. He is America’s worst mayor.   The New York that survived 9/11 and bounced back stronger than ever is now being brought to its knees.

When the City of Newark, New Jersey went to bed on Thursday, June 26th, a secret plot was unfolding. As the clock struck midnight, a group of Newark police officers and city employees in the dark of night descended on the statue of Christopher Columbus at Bloomfield Avenue and North 8th Street. An order had been given directly by the Mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka – take down the statue! A work crew arrived from the Bismark Construction Corporation, a company that is awarded most of Newark’s work and had no idea how to remove the monument, nor the heavy equipment to take it down. Their intent was ..read more

The Truth About Italian Slaves in America – Padrone Act of 1874
The Italian Tribune

3y ago
With the end of the Civil War, slavery ended in the United States, or did it? It seems unbelievable, if not criminal, that the freedom of Italians and Sicilians was not granted until almost eleven and a half years after President Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation on September 22, 1862. While slavery ended in one form with Lincoln’s Proclamation, the groundwork for another insidious form was created through the Immigration Act of 1864. Passed to encourage immigration, it created the opportunity for padrones in America and allowed manufacturers to bring in a cheap foreign labo ..read more

The Italian Tribune

3y ago
In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue. This is perhaps the only element agreed upon these days when applied to the Great Navigator. In these days of historical re-visionaries, facts are discarded when convenient, events are taken out of context and editorials are created as a means of not only furthering an agenda, but also to perpetuate distortions of relevant truths. The purpose of this article to set straight the legacy of Christopher Columbus and why Italians are justifiably proud of his accomplishment that changed the course of human events. The Dangerous Mr. Zinn As any historian, lect ..read more

https://www.villadoria.it/portfolio_page/villadoria-and-the-king-of-wines-the-italian-tribune/ In the province of Cuneo lies the small town of Serralunga d’Alba. Although it has a population of only 500, it is one of the best-known of the towns whose vineyards produce Barolo. The special soil and climate, the terroir, makes the wines unique and highly distinctive the world over. It is on these gentle hills that the Villadoria winery is located. The Lanzavecchia family’s connection with the wine world stretches far back to the dream of Daniele Lanzavecchia Sr. Born in 1887, in Predosa, Italy ..read more

Fake News From the NEA

Fake News From the NEA I am once again appalled at the insistence of the liberal history revisionists to discredit Christopher Columbus. At its 2019 National Convention, the National Education Association (NEA) passed a resolution to have Columbus Day renamed Indigenous Peoples Day, stating, “As an education association, recognizing, observing and celebrating factual history is important to maintaining our academic integrity.” It seems to me that the job of the NEA is to teach the truth, not just what is politically correct. The distortions of history become magnified when only part of the pic ..read more

The World of Leonardo: Part V Leonardo’s relationship with his father was always complicated. It is clear from fragments of his writings that he desired a closer relationship, but there was a distance beyond the miles that separated the two. An example is this translated fragment: ‘Dearest father, on the last day of last month I received the letter you wrote to me, which caused me in a brief space of time both pleasure and sadness: pleasure in that I learned from it you are well, for which I thank God and displeasure to hear of your troubles…’ The letter is respectful, if somewhat stiff and wa ..read more

  Leonardo Part IV – The Mona Lisa Soon after Leonardo returned to Florence and rejoined the Guild of Saint Luke, he took on another commission, a portrait of Lisa del Giocondo, the wife of a wealthy Florentine silk merchant. Today we call the painting the Mona Lisa. The work that we know is a small portrait, approximately 30 inches high by 21 inches wide and is the most famous painting in the world. Countless writers have commented on the elusive smile on the woman’s face; its mysterious quality is perhaps due to the subtly shadowed corners of the mouth and eyes. It makes it impossible t ..read more

Italy: The World’s Favorite Cuisine

A recent world-wide survey has found that the most popular cuisine in the world is Italian. Although with so much outstanding food in the world, it might initially seem like a daunting task to narrow down one cuisine as the world‘s most popular. The results came as no surprise to us. Even if much of the world only experiences a narrow band of the spectrum of the country’s cuisine, namely pizza and pasta, Italian still came out way ahead of the second place finisher. Additionally, some of the statistics are truly a revelation. In Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom and most surprising of all – Fr ..read more
