Graphic Organizer Immigrant Journals lee(prenominal) Chew Mary Antin What is the main idea expressed in the fountains diary? Mistreatment of the Chinese The equality and freedom in the States Is the author happy or unhappy with his/her experience in the States? Unhappy Happy Explain one experience the author had that reflects his/her date of the States. He talks rough how he is unable to bring his married woman to the States over from China or marry an American woman, besides how the Irish, Germans, Englishmen, and Italians are treated much nicer than the Chinese. She talks about how she was able to go to school without fees, examinations, machinations, rulings, and no questions asked. She was able to get education for free. List at least three words from the journal entries that reflect the authors point of view toward America. Mean, Misfortune, and Ignorant Hope, Delight, and Treasure Two of the writers, Emma and Mary, thought of America as a crop of freedom and hope, while the third writer, downwind saw that America as an injustice place to live.Marys journal excerpt was her experience of coming at living in America for the first time. Her story was a story of hope and happiness, of a teeny Russian girl able to receive free education with no tests, papers, or anything really in return. Emmas poem was also really hopeful and happy. Instead of writing about her story of coming to America, she wrote about the symbolism that the Statue of Liberty held.She saw the Statue of Liberty as a place Americas welcoming to the homeless, jobless, and the poor. Were all those people could experience a second adventure of life and a first chance of freedom, but Lees point of view differs with these two writers. He reckons that America is an unfair to his passage and culture, while other immigrants get treated better. He smell outs discriminated and that nobody pass on do or does anything to help him and the rest of his Chinese culture.In my opinion, I b elieve our attitudes, as Americans, toward immigrants are very different from the sentiments stated on the Statue of Liberty. about Americans would not want to welcome the homeless and poor. Also many Americans feel that immigrants are taking jobs away from American citizens especially now in that we are in a recession. So most Americans would probably have a ver changed opinion from the sentiments of the Statue of Liberty.
