Paul Gorski: Immigration Poetry

How does it feel to walk into school and be called something different?  Read "Becoming Joey" by Paul Gorski and identify the raw emotions behind immigration.  This poem relates to any unit that includes immigration.  Poem was featured on LearningforJustice.org.  Here is an excerpt:

Pausing in the doorway

José clears his throat,

trying to spit away

his alien voice.
