By: Emma Lazarus
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.

"Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

The following text set is anchored by this book, Naming Liberty,  which is written by Jane Yolen and Illustrated by Jim Burke.
It contains two stories in one which are told simultaneously. The first story is about a young girl who is immigrating to America from Russia.  It tells about how it is a long process to immigrate. It tells how she wants to change her name when she reaches her new country, but can't decide what her new name should be.
The second story being told is how The Statue of Liberty came to be made.
This presentation will be branched off in a similar way.  Stories about Emigrants are in peach.  Stories and Information about the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island are in green.
