Immigrants
Hope is irrepressible. Hope is why immigrants braved the ocean and the processing at Ellis Island. Hope is why so many still come, to work and send money to impoverished family in countries of their birth.
Hope is what makes the Statue of Liberty a beacon of promise.
Hope is something we all have in common.... I understand why they continue to come and why in some cases in the face of unequal treatment and dwarfed opportunity people who are challenged by an imperfect system still have hope.....
