Statue of Liberty

"Finally, in 1947, we were shipped [from Crystal City] to Ellis Island....I spent too much time facing the back of the Statue of Liberty.  I always felt that even though she had welcomed immigrants promising the American Dream, she turned her back on us just because of our ancestry."
-- Eberhard E. Fuhr, German interned at Ellis Island.  He and his family were finally set free in September 1947.
