Very interesting story of Emma Lazarus, the poet who gave a voice to the Statue of Liberty.
A descendent of Sephardic Jews from Portugal and Brazil (minute 24), Emma Lazarus reached out to recent arrivals in the US in the 1880's. This is both givinggiving back and giving forward. Her poetic words keep inspiring us for good!
Thank Sousa Mendes Foundation for this great teaching and learning moment.
