Answer:

We have to remember that this poem was written in 1883, when America was young, fresh and in need of new life-blood from all over the world. America opened her doors to those who were shunned by their home countries, to those who wanted a better life.

Since the engraving of The New Colossus, America has absorbed millions of immigrants and is still attracting many who seek the dream. The message in this well constructed sonnet is positive and welcoming, but what does the future hold for the Mother of Exiles?
