Explanation

The passengers were Jewish refugees fleeing Nazi Germany, but Cuba refused entry to most of them, and the United States also would not let the ship’s passengers land. They feared being sent back to Germany, where they faced persecution. The ship did have food and shelter while at sea, and the Cuban government did not take all their possessions.
