SS ST LOUIS CARRYING 900 REFUGEES 1939 (Work In Progres)(Aditans)
In 1939, a luxury liner set out a voyage of hope to America
900 German Jewish refugees from Hamburg Germany
Onboard the SS St. Louis
On reaching New York, the refugees looked out of the portholes
Others lined the rails, so to see, the statue of liberty, with her torch guiding
The ship and those onboard into a safe port
They had hopes, and expectations, of a worm welcome there
Only to find they were not welcome into America, the land of the free!
Hitler said ' Even the Americans, do not wont - THE JEWS! '
The captain decided to set course for Cuba, finding there was no welcome
Though those boats sailing around the ST. Louis, giving food to the refugees
The captain had no alternative but set a course back to Europe
The U K, refused to take any refugees on board the ST Louis, as did the rest of
Europ
The Captain finally took the ship back to Hamburg!
Where, the 900, refuges, ended up in camps, only a very few, survived the war!
And we all should know what happened next!
There is much now coming out that happened in the 1930s. That has me thinking of events of recent times.
