In this episode of The Italian American Podcast, we air a conversation recorded this past summer in Sicily with Laura Lee, founder of Digging Up Roots in the Boot, which specializes in heritage tourism and genealogical research throughout Italy for Americans, Canadians, and Australians of Italian descent. The conversation covers attaining your dual citizenship, discovering and reconnecting with your Italian relatives.

In our Stories Segment, Anthony speaks with Rita Richardson, an Italian American living in Nashville, who is spearheading a campaign to save and restore a 17th century baroque chapel located in Castiglion Fiorentino, Tuscany, Italy, and by extension the community it resides within.
