Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor
In Performance - The Capital Hearings

Text from The poem "the New Colossus” (excerpt)

Emma Lazarus (1849-1887)

Give me your tired, your poor,


Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,


The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.


Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,


I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
