WHO WE ARE
We are a network of independent journalists and public intellectuals determined to create an authoritative point of encounter, information, and debate on the Internet concerning Italy and Italian America. The project name is i-Italy, with "Italian/American Digital Project" as its subtitle. It will offer instruments for the creation of bilingual experiment in citizen journalism aimed at telling true stories and provoking genuine discussion.
We are here on MySpace with this group but we are also on:

The project will be officially launched in New York on October 2nd and we are planning an open contest with a FREE i-Phone as the first prize!You are all invited to participate with your photos (articles/videos).
THREE MAIN TOPICS (GROUPS)
• Family and personal stories: all people have a story, and each story makes a difference!
• Italian American: immigration and beyond. Let's talk about all social, political and cultural events related to the Italian/American community - yesterday and today.
• Italy ... in Italy and in the U.S.: Italy-related events and "lifestyle"... they're everywhere, just let's find them.
WHOM WE ARE TALKING TO – AND WHO WE HOPE WILL JOIN US
