LBI Meeting Room

During World War II, the U.S Government restricted the actions and freedoms of 600,000 Italian residents of the United States. Hear their stories in this powerful documentary.

During World War II, the U.S Government restricted the actions and freedoms of 600,000 Italian residents of the United States. All were declared “Enemy Aliens,” and many were placed under curfew, banned from their workplaces, evacuated from their homes and communities, and even placed in internment camps. Most Italians refused to speak about what happened to them. Even 80 years later, many have remained silent. Until now. Hear their stories for the first time in the award-winning film Potentially Dangerous. Sponsored by the Italian Cultural Society of LBI.
