Introduction to Immigrant Blog Project

My name is Lucia. I went to a relatives house during Spring break. I found an old chest filled with cool things like letters. They were all written during the 19oo’s. I think they were written by an immigrant. I told my mom and she said that my great grandmother wrote all of them. She immigrated to America. Her name was Angelina cossi. I felt so exited when I found it I wanted to tell all my friends. I think it is important to learn about the past so you can know what to change in the future. In these pictures you will find letters, comics and so much more!
