Read the excerpt from Immigrant Kids, by Russell Freedman. But the journey was not yet over. Before they could be admitted to the United States, immigrants had to pass through Ellis Island, which became the nation's chief immigrant processing center in 1892. There they would be questioned and examined. Those who could not pass all the exams would be detained; some would be sent back to Europe. And so their arrival in America was filled with great anxiety. Among the immigrants, Ellis Island was known as "Heartbreak Island."

c Immigrants called Ellis Island “Heartbreak Island” for a reason. The United States government was unfair in the way it decided who could come into the country and who would be sent back to their native land. Instead of evaluating the immigrants so harshly, the officials should have been more welcoming.
