Garbage Can to the World?

My Immigrant Family was not garbage. L-R My great grandfather, Henry Josephowitz from Hungary, My great Grandparents  Dr Abraham Posner and Rebeca Posner from Russia and London: My great grandmother Mary Josephowitz from Hungary; Louis Katz Citizenship papers 1955 from Poland; Great grandparents Abrahamand Rebeca Posner

 

Donald Trump says America is “The garbage can to the world!”

I say Rubbish!

I do not come from trash.

My immigrant ancestors were far from debris.

My husband’s refugee family were not refuse.

Donald, you are the only detritus that must be thrown out with the garbage on November 5.

      I feel very very fortunate. I have dozens of photos ofgreat grandparents. And only recently found a photo of omy great great grandmother who is buried here. Her daughter, my great grandmother Rebecca sent for her in the early 1900s after they had settled here in 1883.

        That is so wonderful ~ I guess you come from a long line of people who understood the value of saving important items 🙂

        They absolutely did. The saving gene in me runs very deep. Im also grateful that particularly in my mothers family,both sides were early shutterbugs and so have lots of very old pictures from the teens and early 20s.

    Let me be the one who says, “If Trump thinks America is a garbage can, then Trump should leave America.”
