Read the excerpt from "America's Shifting Views on Immigration" by Mike Kubic:

Most of them were natives of Central, Eastern and Southern Europe - Slavs and Italians looking for a
better life and Jews fleeing from oppressive ghettos - and as their ships passed the nearby Statue of
Liberty, many cried in anticipation of reaching the legendary land of their dreams.

The author's attitude towards the living conditions of Jews in Europe can best be described as:

Mocking
Content
Accusing
Critical

Respuesta :

Answer: Critical

Explanation:

In using the word 'oppressive', we can infer that the author is of the belief that Jews were being mistreated by those around them in the countries they stayed in.

This word therefore carries the connotation that the author is criticizing these conditions because in using the word 'oppressive', which carries a negative connotation, actions of others towards the Jews is seen in a negative light.
