Ellis Island.
From the pictures i viewed, the immigrants who seeked a new and better life in the United States were the ones who took a chance and went to Ellis Island. These immigrants must have been patient , scared, and curious all at once. Many people were rejected and many families had to be seperated. The waiting was probably the most irritating part of it all. People were given little space and food while they waited for an acceptance or rejection to enter the dream land. Every single one of them seeked something greater and hoped to find it in the United States. For some the process was worth it and for others it was pointless. Fear and hope sinked deep into each person while they waited at Ellis Island.
