Nearly 5 years ago former President of the United States, Barack Obama initiated the DACA program, precisely june 15, 2012. The DACA program is a program created for undocumented children that were brought to this country illegally by their guardians, otherwise known in this case as, the Dreamers. DACA allows the undocumented child, if under the age of 16 when first smuggled to United States and under the age of 31 during the initiation period to gain access to a temporary citizenship if other requirements are…
There is so much in this program that will help me succeed in life. First of all, this program will help me graduate college a year earlier than the rest of my class. I am already young for my grade, so if I am involved in this program I will graduate college at the age of 20 years old. I will be two…
Immigration has been a big issue in America for decades. People mostly from Central America migrate to the United States. Many of these people are taking on the jobs for agriculture, jobs Americans refuse to take. But at the same time, Americans have a problem with immigrants taking these jobs. Immigrants come to the United States with the hopes of making a better life, and with the belief that America is the land of opportunity.…
I’m glad to live in America because we have more freedoms than any other country We’re less harsh than other country when it comes to consequences for your actions. We have better resources here like a cleaner water supply. The last reason is there is less disease, better medications, and doctors to take care of our health problems. These are just some of the reasons why i’m glad to live in America. We have many freedoms like freedom of speech, religion, and press.…
In the United States, all people are different nationalities. It can be interesting to learn where people are from, and why they came to America. Coming from a family of Spanish and Mexican descent, I, first hand know why all my relatives came to this country. My family, not alone, came to this country to get equal opportunities at success. The first settlers to ever come to America came because they wanted to start a new life, away from the king and the anarchy.…
America is known for being the “land of opportunities” but is that really true? And if so, is it for everybody or only certain people? America differentiates people by their race and their social status and other reasons by giving them less or more opportunities which are not equal for each person. Therefore, America is not the “promised land” or the “land of the free” being that what they say are false promises. America is known for being the “land of opportunities” which is why people from all over the world come to America in search of new opportunities than what they have in their native land.…
To be an American can mean something different to almost everyone. Most people might would say that to be an American would be to have some political aspect, or to be excessively supportive of the military. Others would say Americans are all about their rights with their guns, sloppy bacon cheeseburgers, or Gittin’ r’ Done. I, on the other hand, say something completely different; something on the opposite end of the scale. America isn’t all about football, fried foods, or the glories of the faux, over dramaticized American dream life.…
yes , having a having an American name you are likelier to discover an occupation less demanding and have a tendency to be acknowledged and trusted by individuals more verses some person with an African name or Islamic or other refined names , generalizations tend to play in like terrorist and immigrant . Notwithstanding for African American individuals if their name was Dwayne or Shae'Quan as opposed to John and Sally individuals have effectively envisioned a Ghetto dark individual. As I would say it the more white your name sounds the more advantages you have. My name hasn't influenced me yet in these ways and I implore it doesn't. I tend to emerge more in school and different Places where my name has to be distinguished because not a lot…

When I live in mexico there was little to eat hardly any places to get a job and I wanted to come here to have a better chance at life.…
I am from another country, As a child I spoke two different languages but not fluently. Arabic, my second language gave me difficulty as a child as for that, I spoke English more for that reason and another reason was that I was in America at the time. In Egypt I spoke more English and for that I was treated as a foreigner and was called differently as well as the way I was treated. I was called in American in Egypt a lot because I traveled from America to Egypt and when I went back to America I was called an Egyptian. In Egypt I was asked a lot of questions and struggled a lot with the language as such I had to ask what the words meant to understand what they we’re saying.…
The Dominican Republic; a place where you can count the opportunities of success with one hand. If you didn’t have a connection to someone in the government, the chances of obtaining a job were improbable; this was common knowledge amongst the people of my country. I often found myself eavesdropping on my friends conversing about escaping to America. As tempting as America sounded, I knew illegally entering was wrong. I was 17 years old when the connotation of “America” changed for me; my father came home with wonderful news: we had been given the opportunity as a family to move to America.…
Although I did not immigrate to America like Choi’s parents, I agree that immigration should be open to all countries to give everyone an equal opportunity to prosper. America is known as the land of opportunity; to take away someone's opportunity because they are from a country where there terrorism exists is a disgrace. Not everyone from a country that has terrorism is a terrorist. Throughout my time working for the Equal Justice Initiative I have learned you can not judge people on their past without knowing their entire story. President Trump does not have the full story of everyone he has banned.…
Few things are more controversial than immigration. The wave of immigrants across U.S. borders enrages many native-born residents. Throughout history, immigrants have made their way to the U.S. from places all over the world, bringing new blood which has energized the American economy and enriched the intellectual, social, and cultural life in more ways than one. Despite many things the nation owes to the work of immigrants, at various times nativists have tried to close the door on people wishing to come in. Although many citizens believe that immigrants steal jobs, unfairly draw government benefits, and alter the social fabric of the United States, there is great danger in overreacting to the issue.…
“I don’t know” I can still distinctly recall my eleven-year-old self repeatedly saying to anyone who tried to talk to me. It was my first day of school in America and that was the only sentence I could put together in English. I was born in China and lived there my whole life until my mother decided to move to New York. I thought I was just visiting her for winter break, but she dropped me off at school just a week after my arrival. As my new classmates tried to talk to me, I can see their mouth moving but they might as well be speaking gibberish.…
