But it was indisputably one of the great divides in human history. an event to marvel at and to learn from. When I think about the contributions of ItalianAmericans. I feel a sense of pride. As the son of Greek immigrants. I am well aware of the hardships that faced those early Immigrants who arrived at Ellis Island often with littie money but with courage. grit and the determination to make a better life for themselves. The ItalianAmerican experience is full. it is colored with strife and victory. pride and honor. hardship and achievement. Above all. there is an abiding sense of patriotism.
