Read Edward Corsi’s quotation from the book Immigrant Kids by Russell Freedman.
Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907:
Giuseppe and I held tightly to Stepfather’s hands, while Liberta and Helvetia clung to Mother. Passengers all about us were crowding against the rail. Jabbered conversations, sharp cries, laughs and cheers – a steadily rising din filled the air. Mothers and fathers lifted up babies so that they too could see, off to the left, the Statue of Liberty.
How does this quotation add credibility to Freedman’s statement that the immigrants never forgot seeing the Statue of Liberty for the first time?
It adds credibility because it comes from a worker on the ship who sailed past the Statue of Liberty.
It adds credibility because it comes from an immigrant who actually shares his memories of seeing the Statue of Liberty.
