Respect to my ancestors who would have gladly starved after two world wars, or worse eaten only polenta for the rest of their lives, before even contemplating emigrating to New Jersey.
I can’t believe Irish saw that and moved to Massachusetts
It’s not so much that they saw this. It’s that they heard the locals speak German.
The same applies to the Germans
No, southerns moved to New Jersey. The dudes who saw this moved to Brazil.
Well they ended up becoming Americans, so jokes on them.
Looks like a nice place to have some gabagool
Merano race course?
When is my turn to post this?
Poverty and oppression
Then they moved back to Italy lol
They didn’t. They moved from Sicily and Campania and such. Northern Italians in the US were more likely to be the occasional academics, conductors and diplomats and such
My ancestors emigrated from Lake Como to Milan in 1860 for better opportunities. We have nothing to do with those immigrants in New Jersey. I eat pizza once a month..
Tirol wasn’t a part of Italy when Luigi’s 4x great grandparents moved to New York
Getting bombed by Austrians will do that to you
Yes but we needed to do “family businesses” there
South Italians moved to the USA, Australia and the north and northern Italians moved to Argentina, Brazil,(a little bit in the USA) and Germany

That’s why in New Jersey you mostly have southerners.
they needed to eat I guess
They crave-a the meatballs
They probably were looking for a new place to be racist.
That’s NORTH Italy. The people who moved come from places like this.
