Synopsis of Italians in America, Vol. 2: Home
This program is the second volume of a two-part series from the History Channel chronicling the history of the people who came from Italy to the new promised land of America, and made their mark in business, politics, and the arts and humanities. This episode examines the lives of Italians in their adopted country, where they formed their own Little Italys, and retained many of their old traditions and language while assimilating themselves into American culture. The contributions of Italian-Americans are showcased, as well as a look at the dark underbelly of the Italian migration: the rise of the American Mafia. Archival film clips, photographs, journals, personal accounts, reenactments, and commentary by historians are used to tell the story. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, All Movie Guide
