Upbeat Immigration News: Naturalization on Angel Island on 100th Anniversary of Immigration Station

The Contra Costa Times reports that “The Angel Island Immigration Station celebrated a 100-year anniversary Thursday in a fitting way: More than 100 people were sworn in as new citizens of the United States.”  Angel Island, of course, is infamous for being the site of the detention of many Chinese immigrants during the era of the Chinese exclusion acts in U.S. history.
