amazon What America’s immigrants looked like when they arrived on Ellis Island We hear so often that America is "a nation of immigrants" or a "cultural melting pot" that the phrase has become kind of a tired cliche. But actually seeing that history is a different story. The fascinating photographs below — of people in their native dress passing through Ellis Island in the early 20th century — hint at just how incredible and unique America's history is as a nation of immigrants. These photos were taken by Augustus Sherman, an amateur photographer who worked as the chief registry clerk on Ellis Island from 1892 until 1925. Sherman snapped these photographs of people passing through customs in their native dress. New York began using Ellis Island as a way station for immigrants on Jan. 1, 1892, and between then and 1954, more than 12 million immigrants used the island to enter the United States. The history of the island is not always a happy one: It also reflects deep racism and ethnic divisions. Here is a young German man, who the notes classify as a "stowaway":

Musée de la photographie Documenting "The Other Half": The Social Reform Photography of Jacob Riis and Lewis Hine Progressive Era Reform While the Gilded Age was an era of prosperity for many Americans, economic depressions brought hard times to many businesses and made sporadic employment a reality for the working class. Economic Instability The industrial plants that survived became more demanding in terms of both the speed and the regularity with which their workers produced goods. Increasingly frustrated by unfair demands, many laborers chose to strike. Strikes enabled laborers to express disagreement with the idea of a permanent wage-laboring class. Few working-class citizens were able to own or operate a business, buy property, or upgrade to better housing. Child Labor Reform Concern for the conditions of the poor gave way to a growing interest in the rights of the working class. [4] One of the most persistent causes of Progressive Era reformers was child labor reform. Physical ailments were common. Progressive Era reformers believed that child labor was detrimental to children and to society.
