About
As a major gateway for immigration, Galveston Island was the port of entry for hundreds of thousands of people coming to America from 1845 to 1924. Forgotten Gateway considers the importance of place in the immigrant experience—and explores universal themes of immigration including leaving home, encountering danger, confronting discrimination, and navigating bureaucracy.
