The "MOVEMENT" offers three (3) historical sections for public viewing. 

Section (1) The story begins describing how the Federal Government discriminated against Italian Americans living in America just because Italy was at war with the United States. How thousands of innocent, loyal Italian American citizens were branded enemy aliens and subjected to civil rights violations by the very same government they served to protect. 

Section (2) details the accomplishments and achievements of Christopher Columbus as an explorer. This area is complete with up-to-date facts since the first voyage leading into the anti-Columbus movement organized by anti-Columbus activists. 

Section (3) will take the viewer into more darker images showing the biased and racist attitudes of the mass media especially the "Hollywood Media" and how it negatively 

depicts and stereotypes Italian Americans in Hollywood and on TV. Viewers will be surprised to learn how the mass media unfairly target loyal, innocent, law abiding people. And the efforts taken by NIAC to change the social perception of the way the American people view and look upon Italian Americans in society. 

The NATIONAL ITALIAN AMERICAN COUNCIL (NIAC) is a national organization and dedicated to defending and advancing the Italian American cause on a national level. 

Todate NIAC?s proudest moment was the successful lobbying of The Italian American Wartime Violations Act HR 2442. Considered the most important piece of legislation ever passed and signed into law on behalf of Italian Americans in the United States of America.
