Because we know that not all immigrants were welcomed into the country. Not all immigrants were able to achieve their american dreams. But rather, we picked and sifted and chose which immigrants to let in and which immigrants to let out. Or keep out. And many times, this really was dependent upon an immigrants race, ethnicity, gender, class, this idea of who is fit to become a citizen and who is not. And this is the history that is best exemplified through immigration through angel island. This is in the San Francisco bay. It is that other island, not alcatraz, but that other island in the San Francisco bay that is now a california state park. So, the immigration station on angel island was open from 1910 to 1940. We primarily think about it as an entry point for immigrants from china and japan. And two thirds of the immigrants who did come through angel island were from those two countries. But as you can see, there are over 80 countries represented for the immigration stream that cam
Welcome back. I am excited to talk to you this afternoon. So many of us as americans, we grow up learning about the history of immigration through ellis island. Right . This is what we talked about last week. It is the history of european immigrants coming to the new world under the shadow of the statue of liberty. It is often told as a very uplifting and romantic story where immigrants become americans. But not many of us know the history of immigration through angel island.

Obama i will fight any attempt to reverse immigration action. Moving forward to fix our broken immigration system. House conservatives warn boehner dont cave on immigration. U. S. Im

United States Supreme Court and when these cases result in the opinions of the court, history turns. The ways in which we think about and live under the constitution are reflected in the courts interpretations in both their Historical Context and their legacies. Some cases and the courts opinions in them so profoundly alter our constitutional understandings that they can only be rightly be called landmark cases, markers of where we have traveled as a nation. As a part of an initiative begun in 2015, the National Constitution center partnered with cspan to create a 12part series illustrating the history, issues and people involved in monumental landmark cases. Through the resulting online videos and other classroom Resources Available at landmarkcases. Cspan. Org, students and educators can analyze some of the most famous and infamous cases.
