19.

My expectations were not met i was not expecting the statue of liberty to be so small but listening to why it was here was very interesting. My only suggestion is for movies to stop making it look so big

20. Ellis island and immigration museum On ellis island we learned about how people immigrated to america and the requirements to get into america as well as why people wanted to get to america. What we should have taken from this is how grueling it was for immigrants to just get to the US and even then there was still a chance they would get turned back and forced to go back to their country.

My only suggestion would be to be longer

24. Museum of the city of new york At the museum of the city of new york we learned about different racial problems and discrimination against the african american community in the 1950s to 1990s.
