Main Topic Question:
How does Hilda Satt Polachecks autobiography reflect the larger 19thcentury immigrant experience?
As you formulate you answer you may want to consider the following questions:
-What push/pull factors attracted Satt and others to the United States? (i.e. What is driving them from their home nations/drawing them to the U.S.?)
-How did her daily life change after moving to the U.S.?
-What institutions in the United States did immigrants use to help them identify as Americans?
These are by no means the only points/themes you may include in your paper! There are a TON of different ways this document reflects the immigrant experience (as delineated in lectures the textbook and the assigned readings).
