Although our publication, the Italian American Digest, was temporarily suspended because of Hurricane Katrina's damage to the city of New Orleans, the Digest, once again, "has gone to press"! Be sure to get our next issue!

The Italian American Digest is a tabloid newspaper, published quarterly with distributions on St. Joseph's Day, July 4th, Columbus Day, and Christmas. Founded in 1973 by Joseph Maselli, it is the "Italian American Voice of the South" and has a national distribution of over 15,000 copies. It is produced and written by volunteers whose purpose is to promote contributions of Italian Americans and applaud their success which are usually overlooked in the major newspapers and magazines.

Our main interest is to document the culture, language, and heritage brought to America by the Italian immigrant. We have tried to fill the void left after the "La Voce Coloniale" and other Italian language newspapers that have ceased publication. Each issue contains twenty pages of Italian, national, local, and club news; Italian history (Italian Yesterday and Today), the Italian language, genealogy, and various articles of general interest. All this for a $10.00 annual subscription.
