I think 'The land of the free' reflects the social aspects of the early twenty century in America. Many immigrants had flown to America. And there were discriminations to immigrants. So the one couple, Hom Hing and Lae Choo, was deprived of their baby Quong sum. They had tried to get back to their baby. But government had not interest in their request. As a result, they had a lot of pay for send a lawyer to government office.
This story makes me sad. Because Korean had suffer in early twenty century too as well as Chinese. Choseon dynasty which had existed before Korea was dying that time. And many powers such as Japanese empire, Russian empire and china invaded Korea. They fight each other in Korea. So Korea became the hell more. As a result many Koreans moved to other countries. And they got many discriminations as a foreigner who hasn't their county and government. Korea had no power to protect their people that time. I think this miserable tragedy never happens again to any country as well as Korea.
