We have an extremely broad variety of race and culture that we all accept as equals. However, because of the occurrences on Ellis Island during the Great Migration, countless numbers of family members got “caught in the shuffle” so to speak. Several immigrants did not even make the journey over due to disease and lack of supplies on the ships which ultimately led to death. The lucky ones that did endure the diseases were then examined by a medical staff and were then sent back to their home countries. Once a person arrives by boat, goes through the medical examination, they are still not home free yet.

The team heads toward a small lighthouse, in hopes of being rescued. The crashing breaking waves convince the men that even though the shore is in sight, the boat will not make it so they turn back out to sea. Their morale is further trampled when they see people on the beach waving to them, but no one makes a move to help. By the second day they decide to push through the surf as far as they can and then abandon the boat and swim for shore. Before they could make a volunteer exit, a wave upends the boat and dumps them into the icy sea.

A further 5 million homes were left with no electricity and many houses were a victim of falling trees. A Holt in the Stock Market occurred, with many work employees opting for a few days off work due to not being able to travel. The fire brigade recorded over 6000 calls in a 24 hour period.

He was blamed after they found out that many men died because there were not enough lifeboats. As he was the owner of the ship, he was one of the first ones to get a seat with the women on the lifeboat because he knew that there werent enough. Many men were dragged off the lifeboats as they tried to get on with their wives but he had managed to get on it without getting dragged back. Many reports have indicated Bruce Ismay bribing Thomas Andrews ,the ships designer, to decrease the watertight compartment so that there would be more first class seats.The main reason why people were agitated with him was because he survived the tragedy. Survivors of the Titanic were furious with him because there were not enough lifeboats for all the passengers on board.
But people developed lots of coastal development (dredging, mangrove removal, seawall construction, alteration of freshwater flow) and they had fewer places to live. That caused them to die. Third problem is their low reproductive ability. Like sharks, they breed very slow and produce very few babies. Because of overfishing and habitat loss it will take years to reproduce all that amount of sawfish that were killed.
