We talked about the Swinging Sixties and at the moment, there is an exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London called “You say you want a revolution?” about these years of revolution. Click on the photo below and read about it.
When we talked about immigration and the trip of the immigrants before they arrived on Ellis Isalnd, I mentioned a movie with Charlotte Gainsbourg. I’m afraid I made a mistake when I gave the title… It’s “Golden Door”
Here is the trailer
I was talking with some of you about a TV series dealing with the life of Queen Elizabeth. Personnally I really find it very interesting.

Here is the whole poem written at the bottom of the Statue of Liberty.
The New Colossus
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“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!”
