Supervisor Proposes Resolution To Maintain Ferry Service To Angel Island As Operator Seeks To End It

SAN FRANCISCO (BCN)
With the Blue & Gold Fleet possibly ending its ferry service from San Francisco to Angel Island, Supervisor Gordon Mar on Tuesday called for a resolution supporting continued service to the island to honor the estimated one million immigrants who were once detained there.
Blue & Gold Fleet announced in December that it was seeking to end the service due to declining ticket sales, filing a request to discontinue with the California Public Utilities Commission.
Between 1910 and 1940, the island was used as a station to enforce the country s Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 and other immigration policies, with Asian immigrants being detained and interrogated there. More than 200 Chinese poems carved into the station s wall by detainees remain as evidence of the era.
The station was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1997. When my father and my grandmother came to this country, like thousands of other immigrants from China and elsewhere, they were detained at the Immigration Station on Angel Island. As we recognize Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, we have to recognize this history, Mar said during Tuesday s San Francisco Board of Supervisors meeting. Angel Island remains a vital part of our city, our state, and our nation s history of immigration, and racist and exclusionary treatment of immigrants. To build a more just future, we have to contend with the injustices of our past. We have to preserve these places, their memories, and their lessons, he said.

The 70 third-grade students of St. Andrew School in Newtown concluded their social studies project on early settlers and pioneers in America with an Immigration Station activity at the school March 30. The students chose a name and country of origin, randomly received information regarding their life situation, profession, and good or bad fortune, then dressed in an appropriate costume for the day. Then they enacted sailing to Ellis Island in New York and depicted what early immigrants experienced when coming to America for the first time.
