“The
Immigrants” will introduce you to Cape-Verdeans
that have made the journey to America’s shores. Some have made that crossing
aboard
 packet
ships, or whalers, and others have come to America in airplanes. At the
turn of the 20th century the journey took 45 to 60 days and by the end
of the century the journey was cut down to 4 to 6 hours. You will not only
listen to their voices, but you will also meet Cape Verdeans from each
of the islands and from other countries that came to America.
Each individual will briefly tell his/her own story. Music will be interwoven throughout this presentation and a colorful array of original photographs will help to take visually you on a journey into the lives and minds of the immigrant. We will take you across the 20th Century and into the 21st Century as we examine the Dream. |
