2009 habe ich unter der Ägide der Library of America eine Anthologie mit dem Titel "Amerikaner werden: Einwanderer erzählen ihre Geschichten von Jamestown bis heute" herausgegeben. Es waren Einwanderer mit unterschiedlichen Hintergründen, von schwarzen Sklaven wie Phillis Wheatley bis zu jiddischsprachigen Sprechern wie Henry Roth.
