This April 25th , we received a beautiful gift from an artist-director with a passion for New York. It’s a video that tells the story of this beautiful and unique city through La Voce di New York’s story, and at the end talks about me and the newspaper by way of New York. A fantastic birthday gift for La Voce that I founded seven years ago with the help of fearless friends and collaborators.

What can I say? In these difficult days, in which COVID-19 has changed our lives, at times devastating them with depression, suffering and even death, we at La Voce had the good fortune today to savor a moment of happiness with this hymn to freedom. A marvelous gift that I share with all of my great collaborators that love La Voce di New York and without whom it would not exist. And we share it with all of you fond readers of La Voce who always inspire us with your high expectations and whom we never take for granted, as well as with all of the Italians in the homeland and around the world that today are celebrating April 25th and the value of freedom — a value that is also the foundation of the free press.

Thank you again to the very generous director and videographer, Luca Baù, for this beautiful gift. Vocisti around the world, share it – liberty is contagious…

Now, dear readers, after having enjoyed this video, I urge you to support La VOCE di New York: only with your help can this paper continue to live freely and independently.

How can you keep the newspaper that you founded seven years ago independent and credible? How can this be done without compromising and without accepting funds from those that then ask you to return a favor? How do you keep a daily paper going in two languages without ever having taken even one dollar in public and government assistance, neither from Rome nor from Washington DC? How can a newspaper that reached a single monthly readership of 438 thousand last month — of which 60% are located in the US –continue to thrive without even a minimum amount of adequate resources?

The honest and transparent response is only one: it cannot be done. Or rather, it has been done miraculously up until now, but only thanks to enormous personal sacrifices and to the voluntary help of such great and generous collaborators in New York, and from all over, across the ocean, all the way to my Sicily. But we cannot continue to publish La Voce di New York the way it currently is, free and independent, without the support of its readers.

But we cannot continue to publish La Voce di New York the way it currently is, free and independent, without the support of its readers. Yes, you, our readers, are the only ones that can really preserve the values of independence and freedom of La Voce di New York, by contributing to the health and vigor of this credible source of information for Italians and lovers of Italy in America and around the world.

Would you like to continue to have a free and independent, and therefore, authoritative voice? Help Us. April 25th, the day on which Italy celebrates its Liberation from Nazi-Fascism, is also the anniversary of La Voce, born right on that day. If you still believe in the value of freedom, that which is protected by the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America, and regained by Italians on April 25th 1945  with the aid of Americans, then go to the newspaper that was founded based on this principle and contribute what you can. All you have to do is click to open an article and you’ll find Lady Liberty herself at your side, not giving up, now more than ever. She too with a mask, but never with a gag!

Sono nato e cresciuto in Sicilia, la chiave di tutto secondo un romantico tedesco. Infanzia rincorrendo un pallone dai Salesiani e liceo a Palermo, laurea a Siena, master a Boston. L'incontro col giornalismo avviene in America, per Il Giornale di Montanelli, poi tanti anni ad America Oggi e il mio weekly USItalia. Vivo a New York con la mia famiglia americana e dal Palazzo di Vetro ho raccontato l’ONU per Radio Radicale. Amo insegnare: prima downtown, alla New School, ora nel Bronx, al Lehman College della CUNY. Alle verità comode non ci credo e così ho scritto Carlos Marcello: The Man Behind the JFK Assassination (Enigma Books 2013 e 2015). Ho fondato e dirigo La VOCE di New York, convinto che la chiave di tutto sia l’incontro fra "liberty & beauty" e con cui ho vinto il Premio Amerigo 2018. I’m Sicilian, born in Mazara del Vallo and raised in Palermo. I studied history in Siena and went to graduate school at Boston University. While in school, I started to write for Il Giornale di Montanelli. I then got a full-time job for America Oggi and moved to New York City. My dream was to create a totally independent Italian paper in New York to be read all over the world: I finally founded La VOCE di New York. In 2018 I won the "Amerigo Award". I’m a journalist, but I’m also a teacher. I love both. I cover the United Nations, and I correspond from the UN for Radio Radicale in Rome. I teach Media Studies and also a course on the Mafia, not Hollywood style but the real one, at Lehman College, CUNY. I don't believe in "comfortable truth" and so I wrote the book "Carlos Marcello: The Man Behind the JFK Assassination" (Enigma Books 2013 e 2015). I love cooking for my family. My favorite dish: spaghetti con le vongole.
