 I was a part of a new era in the history of America, the country tha
 t had gently but securely adopted me,” she said. “I was arm and ar
 m with daughters and sons of other immigrants, some refugees like me, 
 and others who took a different road to freedom. I smiled and knew, ye
 s, this is my country – the land of promise, a promise of hope, a ho
 pe for a new life. “Our faces read ‘We are citizens of America and
  of the World. We are accountable to both,’” she added. “I think
  this is what we mean by feeling patriotic.”\nThe artist, along with
