Emma Lazarus

Born on 1849 in New York City to a family of Portuguese Sephardic Jewish descent whose roots extended to the very early days of NYC as a British colonial city.

Lazarus was the poet who wrote in 1883 "The New Colossus" - the famous poem that greets new immigrants to America till this day.

“...Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she with silent lips.

"Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

With those words, the Statue of Liberty was given life and purpose beyond that of a monument to liberal ideals, becoming a beacon of hope for the refugees seeking freedom from the terror of persecution.

The poem was placed on the Statue of Liberty in 1903 (after her death).

Aside from writing, Lazarus was also involved in charitable work for refugees.

At Ward's Island, she worked as an aide for Jewish immigrants who had been detained by Castle Garden immigration officials.

She was deeply moved by the plight of the Russian Jews she met there and these experiences influenced her writing.

The Jewish themes she had never dealt with before erupted in her work.

Emma Lazarus died November 19, 1887 (aged 38) in New York City, most likely from Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Lazarus was buried in Beth Olam Cemetery in Brooklyn.

Her papers are kept by the American Jewish Historical Society, Center for Jewish History, and her letters are collected at Columbia University.

Jewish Roots

From its actual context of meaning, Palestine is not a metaphor for Saladin's eagle or generally for anti-colonial freedom and emancipation of the Tricontinent _ as it is repeatedly propagated by more than a few leftists of post-colonial theory and anti-imperialism _ but a UN/place a dystopia in which a murderous entity like Hamas has massively internalized its all-German homeland in the people of Palestine (up to 80%) - in National Socialism and in Hitler's 'Mein Kampf' reinvents itself again and again and thus wants to fully implement the anti-Semitic genocide against the Jews https://dernachbotwelt.blogspot.com/2024/09/supportisrael-nopalestine.html
