President of the Republic of Italy issues condolences on the passing of NIAF Chair Emeritus Frank D. Stella

Il Presidente Napolitano ha appreso con vivo rammarico la notizia della scomparsa di Frank D. Stella, uomo d'affari, filantropo, eminente rappresentante degli italo-americani.
Generoso promotore di numerosi progetti culturali, tra... i quali si ricorda il restauro del teatro dell'opera di Detroit, Frank Stella si è distinto per l'impegno profondo e instancabile a favore della comunità italiana d'America. Egli contribuì in particolare alla diffusione della lingua e della cultura italiana e fu fondatore e presidente per lunghi anni della NIAF.
I valori di libertà e solidarietà di cui fu alfiere sono l'eredità che egli lascia ai cinque figli e a tutta la vasta e qualificata comunità dei cittadini americani di origine italiana.

Duty calls!

We simply can no longer sit back and react with a “tsk tsk,” a “Mamma Mia,” or a shake of the head and then go about our own business, when some of our co-ethnics contribute to negative imagery of Italians and Italian Americans.
