Most of my family came through Ellis Island at one time or another. I am the decendant of immigrants. I have known this since childhood and for me, as a natural born American, I have a duty to help those who are now coming to this land in search of freedom and an escape from oppression. This is why I participate in 30 Poems each year.
Please help me, help our students and clients navigate a new language, culture and lifestyle. All donations, no matter how small, are gratefully appreciated!
