Dear Pres. Roosevelt

Dear President Roosevelt,
Hi, my name is Isabel. I am an American Jew living in Milwaukee. As a jew, I feel that we should let the passengers of the US St. Louis into America. The people on the ship are trying to commit suicide, they have nowhere else to go except back to Germany, where concentration camps await them. Only 30 of the passengers were allowed into Cuba. Jewish immigrants have done a lot for America and if we don’t let the Jews in we can lose the skills they have. I feel as a Jew we should let all the Jews on the US St. Louis into America.

Sincerely,
Isabel

  1. There are two President Roosevelts in US history; which are you referring to? Additionally, don’t use last names in your blog post!

  2. Hey Isabel,
    I’m Shelby from ISKL (international school of Kuala Lumpur). I found this particular post extremely interesting. I really like how you wrote about specific details and what how the Jews benefited America. Why were only 30 passengers allowed into Cuba and how what did the President do in order to change his views? Maybe check out my blog at bit.ly/shelbysideajar. This was awesome!
