Thanks,
@nbherol.bsky.social,
for the great photos!

My grandmother was born in Istanbul. After her mother died, she emigrated to the US in 1920 at age 18 with her father and sister. They arrived at #EllisIsland.

One of my later images of the World Trade Center, taken in March of 1995, as I moved out of The City that summer.

The Statue of Liberty and main structure of Ellis Island can be seen in the frame as well.

It turns out your family name wasn't accidentally changed by a clerk at Ellis Island. #immigation #immigrationlaw #history #ellisisland 🗃️

I feel this is getting more appropriate for the current situation…. Liberty is slipping away in the distance.

My grandfathers were both #WWII Veterans & sons of immigrants. I’m relieved they are not here to witness this #AmericanNaziRegime.
My German Pa told the best story every Christmas Eve. He returned from duty in Philippines on a big ship back to #EllisIsland. My grandmother was waiting. 12/24/45

💯my Nana’s family escaped the Bolsheviks. They were essentially gypsies, hiding & running with no named homeland in their war-torn region. I don’t think #Putin has any appreciation for the history of Russia or understands how many safely fled & were welcomed at #EllisIsland.

Imagine stepping off a ship at Ellis Island, clutching a numbered card, desperately trying not to falter on the stairs — This is how my grandmother Elisabetta arrived in America. Her story is one you won't forget. → www.amazon.com/Immigrant-Se... #EllisIsland #ItalianAmerican #ImmigrantStory

This series #1923 is really brutal. They spoke about EllisIsland as being riddled with disease from all the migration. The natives so brutally treated/kllled in the name of God.The rich rule the world. 100 years later and we are exactly the same. 💔

If I had a classroom: I'd hope to teach FIRE HORSE GIRL in 2026 #YearOfTheHorse. No horses in this #immigration story of Chinese family detained at Angel Island (West Coast #EllisIsland) & the almost bold bearer of Fire Horse Zodiac sign who beats the odds #schoollibrarians #educators #skybrarians
