Join the Italian American Program for a virtual conversation with oral historians Gianluca Cinelli and Patrizia Piredda, creators of the Memo-AmIt oral history project on Saturday, Aug. 22, 2026 from 10:00 AM.
Memo-AmIt explores how the legacy of World War II has shaped the memories, identities, and family stories of Italian Americans across generations. Through recorded interviews with Italian Americans, including Western Pennsylvanians, the project examines how wartime experiences have influenced cultural identity, family narratives, and perceptions of Italy since 1945.
