Chambersburg: What’s Left of the Italians’ ’Burg

Baryali, from Afghanistan to Rome: “There’s Nowhere Else I’d Rather Live”

In Baryali’s eyes, you can see the reflection of the Himalayan highlands, and the boundless grassland plains of his country. But what he remembers of his Kabul is the sound of the bombs and the destruction. Today, he is a cultural-linguistic mediator; he speaks with a bit of a Roman inflection, he studies at John Cabot University in Rome, and dreams of one day working at the UN. For all his friends who didn’t make it.

Citizenship. Privilege, Subjective Right, or Way of Co-existing?

Integration is characterized by a process of sharing objectives, rights, duties, and above all, the ability to make decisions in discussions of the society that integrates itself.

I’m an Immigrant, but I Agree with President Trump

Held prisoner in Germany during the war, my father left his family in Sicily in the 50s, and came to work to the United States as an illegal immigrant. He managed to stay in New York for a few years, then he was deported. In the end, after a great deal of sacrifice, he ligally migrated to America with his whole family. Trump is right, and I tell you why.
