Abstract
Josephine Rizzo sought to come to America for a life of better opportunities and to monetarily aid her parents back in Italy. She describes her resolve to be given a Visa to enter the United States, and continued further to detail her difficulties with the cultural assimilation, and the solace which the Italian American community provided her.
