IACRL Christmas Celebration 2025

It was a night of elegance, tradition, and community spirit as we gathered at the new Italian American Museum in the heart of Little Italy, New York City.

This year, the IACRL proudly honored outstanding individuals who embodied our mission and heritage:

• Mr. Frank Capone and Mrs. Jacqueline Tobacco – who courageously fought to preserve Columbus Day in Middletown, NJ, and succeeded.

• Mr. Michael Romano – the proud voice of the IACRL in Boston.

Together, we celebrated our culture, our achievements, and the season in true Italian American spirit.

To our sponsors, journal advertisers, and friends, your generosity, partnership, and faith in our mission strengthen our community and help preserve the proud traditions we hold dear.

As we look ahead to a bright and prosperous new year, we thank you for standing with us in unity, pride, and purpose.



With heartfelt appreciation,

The Italian American Civil Rights League
