The Fascist League of North America (FLNA) was an umbrella group for fascist Italian-American organizations founded in 1924. Paolo Ignazio Maria Thaon di Revel was sent to the US to organize the Fasci into the FLNA. In the United States it could count in particular on the support of two Italian-American newspapers, Domenico Trombetta's Il Grido della Stirpe in New York and Francesco Macaluso's Giovinezza in Boston.
The presence of the FLNA provoked a counter-response by Italian-Americans of liberal, socialist, communist and anarchist persuasion, and an Anti-Fascist Alliance of North America was formed as early as 1923 and continued into the 1930s.[5] Clashes between pro- and anti-fascist Italian-Americans became more common, ending in at least a dozen fatalities evenly divided between the two factions.
At the end, the Italian government concluded that the American Fasci did Italy more harm than good. Mussolini instructed Ambassador de Martino to dissolve the FLNA in 1929.
