When I said they were "Italian," I meant that they were a product of Philadelphia's Italian-American community. I revised my statement after you pointed that out.

And this type of critique is coming from a person who says that "Caucasian" is a race and always will be.I suppose the same goes for the mulattoes, the mongreloids and the Orientals too.

Here's an interesting article about the Italian and Polish neighborhoods of Brooklyn.
