Photos: Angel Island exhibit open in L.A. The Los Angeles Times /news/local/la-me-angel-island-pictures,0,6519494.photogallery Photographer: Katie Falkenberg/For The Times Remembering Angel IslandJuly 16, 2010 - May 29, 2011Angel Island is an immigration station off the coast of San Francisco that was open from 1910-1940 to process immigrants coming from the Pacific Rim countries. Dubbed the Ellis Island of the West, more than one million immigrants from over 80 countries – including 175,000 Chinese – were processed at Angel Island during its years of operations. Many of these detainees were Chinese, who faced intense interrogation and subsequent detention for weeks, months and sometimes even years. The ordeal of this experience left an indelible mark in the lives of Chinese immigrants at Angel Island that forever changed the course of America’s history.

As we remember their struggle, we honor all who have been drawn to America by dreams of limitless opportunity. To commemorate the 100th Anniversary of Angel Island, CAM, in partnership with Angel Island Immigration Station Foundation, is proud to open an exhibition to honor the history, legacy and unforgettable stories of Angel Island. The exhibit will occupy 400 sq. ft of space and will showcase historic photographs, a reproduction of a poem carved on the barracks of Angel Island, artifacts and a multi-media station featuring personal stories of those who endured or were profoundly affected by the Angel Island experience.

His first stop in this country was
