Many Americans can trace their ancestral roots to immigration through the New York system. The Lower East Side Tenement Museum offers an opportunity to understand directly what their families went through. This Manhattan museum delivers a remarkable re-creation of New York City’s past. Apart from the traditional glass-housed displays, the museum goes above and beyond, featuring several reconstructed apartments that show the day-to-day life of New York immigrants. Complete with actors and actresses, these apartments allow visitors to assume the role of a newly arrived immigrant and interact as if they were really there. The tours of the apartments even give visitors the opportunity to handle the household objects and completely blur the line between yesterday and today. Summer 2012 goes a step further with a walking tour of the Lower East Side, providing a firsthand account of the when’s, where’s and why’s of immigrants in Manhattan. Another feature during the summer will be a series of educational lectures from today’s immigrants, providing a fresh perspective on the reasons for immigration and the hardships of migration. Unlike many more traditional museums, the Lower East Side Tenement Museum is a fully interactive experience that must be seen to be believed. Easily accessed from all of New York, one must make the time to find out exactly where their families came from.

"This monument is not only a memorial to the nation's 32nd president, but also a remembrance of the people of his time. The monument stretches along the Tidal Basin with four outdoor gallery rooms, connected by granite passageways. Each room exhibits aspects of Franklin D. Roosevelt's terms in office. The second room, for example, depicts the Great Depression with statues waiting in a bread line and of a man listening to a fireside chat. Another room contains a statue of Eleanor Roosevelt, the only memorial to honor a First Lady. The monument is glorified by waterfalls and pools."

Stepping into this classical sanctuary, you'll find yourself face to face with one of America's most commanding tributes. Henry Bacon orchestrated the architectural vision while Daniel Chester French carved the iconic seated figure, with Jules Guerin adding artistic finishing touches—a true collaboration of 19th-century masters. The building itself tells a geographic story, its stones sourced from quarries scattered across different states and unified into something architecturally overwhelming in scale and presence. Winter transforms the experience entirely. The marble gleams sharply against cold gray skies, and fewer crowds mean you can linger with the 19-foot seated figure in relative quiet, reading the famous inscription etched into the chamber walls. The 16th President sits here in perpetual contemplation, his legacy as the Great Emancipator and the Union's preserver still resonating through the quiet halls. Visitors come seeking that spark of inspiration, that connection to freedom and resilience the space seems to radiate—whether you're drawn by history, by reflection, or simply by curiosity about what makes this place so fundamentally moving.

Virginia State University, located in Ettrick, Virginia (near Petersburg, in the Richmond area), was founded on March 6, 1882. It was the United States's first fully state-supported four-year institution of higher learning for black Americans.
