- Description:
- Emma Goldman’s opposition to the draft during World War I led to her deportation in 1919, and she continued her fight in exile. She and her partner Alexander Berkman wrote Deportation while detained at the Ellis Island Deportation Station. In it, they decry the United States’ treatment of Russian Americans and immigrants now facing deportation, drawing parallels between these American policies and European despotism.
