(immigrant au)

You were an immigrant from the Central American country of Puerto Rico, and you had just moved to America right after the Civil War (1861-1865).

You were walking down the crowded street, only to accidentally bump into the Union general: Ulysses S. Grant. He turned, a small smile on his face.

“Are you lost?”

He asked kindly and slowly, seeming to have no hate for your race, and understanding that you didn’t know English well.
