This statue of migrant family is found on the Freemantle Wharf. Many ships coming from Europe had Fremantle as their first stop before continuing on to the eastern states.
Given how the British and Europeans arrived here I do find it ironic that some want to ban all further migration, particularly of certain peoples. As Australia is not reproducing at replacement rate we do need to have a reasonable migration strategy, but not be swamped by the untold millions in the world that would like a safe home, work and place to raise their children.
Since coming back from WA I have tested positive for Covid and spent all day in bed. This is the second time I have got Covid and it seems worse than the last time, which is annoying! HSS

La noche irá sin prisa de nostalgía
Habrá de ser un tango nuestra herida
Un acordeón sangriento nuestas almas
Seremos esta noche todo el día
Vuelve a mí
Ámame sin luz
En nuestra alcoba azul
Donde no hubo sol para nosotros
Ciégame
Mata mi corazón
En nuestra alcoba azul
Mi Amor

Tonight I will turn the stars on for you
to make them fall like rain into your arms

Immigration Officer: Why are you here?
Me: I'm an immigrant...this is my mother's last wish- to experience working & living in the USA.
Bird migration is the regular seasonal movement, often north and south, along a flyway, between breeding and wintering grounds. Many species of bird migrate. Migration carries high costs in predation and mortality, including from hunting by humans, and is driven primarily by the availability of food.
I was lucky... This flock of birds, was flying around, late in the afternoon, right outside my window in a really low flight ...

Yungaba Immigration Centre is a heritage-listed former immigration hostel at 102 Main Street, Kangaroo Point, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, alongside the Brisbane River. It was designed by John James Clark and built c. 1885 by William Peter Clark. It is also known as Yungaba Immigration Depot, Immigration Barracks, and No.6 Australian General Hospital. It was added to the Queensland Heritage Register on 21 October 1992.
Yungaba House has now been converted for upmarket living. It sits just below the western end of the Story Bridge seen in my recent shot of the city of Brisbane. You can see the safety fence on the bridge above the roof of the centre. The building extends out of shot on the left, it's quite large. The city, on the other side of the river can be seen in the rear.
For those interested, this rather long Wiki article will take you through the lot.
The second part of the exhibition was aimed towards immigration into Germany.
"You will find yourself in the extension building in Germany - in a shop passage in 1973. Up-to-date daily newspapers are hanging in front of a kiosk. The headlines read: "Recruitment freeze in Germany", "No more guest workers to Germany". It was November 24, 1973, the day after foreign workers stopped recruiting. How was it in the Federal Republic that day? How important was the political decision for West German society and the people who had already immigrated?"

Der zweite Teil der Ausstellung befasst sich mich der Einwanderung nach Deutschland.
Man kommt als erstes auf diesen Kiosk zu.
"Im Erweiterungsbau finden Sie sich in Deutschland wieder – in einer Ladenpassage im Jahr 1973. Vor einem Kiosk hängen gut sichtbar aktuelle Tageszeitungen. Die Schlagzeilen lauten: „Anwerbestopp in Deutschland“, „Keine Gastarbeiter mehr nach Deutschland“. Es ist der 24. November 1973, der Tag nach dem Anwerbestopp ausländischer Arbeitskräfte. Wie sah es in der Bundesrepublik an diesem Tag aus? Welche Bedeutung hatte die politische Entscheidung für die westdeutsche Gesellschaft und die bereits eingewanderten Menschen?"
Sometimes I think...we left the sun behind...immigrated...to have these little funny reflections of moonlight on dark dead stones...
sorry....rarely...

You cannot fail to be moved when walking this floor where millions have walked before seeking hope in the USA.
Donald Trump's immigration policy would effectively have barred his own grandfather. But then he is in denial as to where his inherited wealth came from and doesn't believe in paying his taxes. Hey! that's the American Way!!
