    Immigration is a controversial issue in the United States. Whether, it is kicking illegal immigrants out of the country or stopping immigrants from entering in the first place, one thing is for sure immigration is the topic of the day. However, when the U.S looks at the illegal immigrants, instead of seeing the situations that they have been dealt with, we view them as a threat. In the story, Mother’s Tongue, an illegal immigrant named Jose Luis comes to the U.S in the search for a better life and finds out that accomplishing that will not be as easy as he thinks. He is considered a criminal in the eyes of the U.S., because he didn’t take the necessary steps it takes to be a legal resident.…

    For this assignment I have chosen to look more in depth at Immigration in the late nineteenth century until early twentieth century, and how this life changing experience was handled by different ethnic groups. In turn I will compare and contrast the essays of Victor Greene and Mark Wyman who both portray immigration in their own light. Victor Greens’s essay titled “Permanently Lost: The Trauma of Immigration” uses tools such as music and ballads to display how immigration effected certain ethnic groups and their families. While Mark Wyman’s “Coming and Going: Round - Trip to America” focuses on pamphlets given out in the workforce and more concrete evidence as to how and why immigration took place the way it did. To my mind Wyman’s use…

    Sometimes one of the biggest challenges for individuals in the immigrant community is a lack of awareness of the challenges they face on the part of other immigrants. As a Peruvian citizen from an educated family, and a U.S. green card holder, I have been peripherally aware of differences in the experiences of individuals based on their immigration and socioeconomic status. A recent experience intensified my focus on those differences. It was learning about the life of a boy sitting next to my little brother in our living room one afternoon that inspired me to educate myself, so I would be more aware of the challenges faced by those immigrants who lacked advantages I have.…

    It is argued that immigrants should have to assimilate to the culture of the new country they are migrating to rather than not assimilating and going about their daily lives the way they normally do. However, not very many people discuss the ways in which immigrants can learn how to assimilate and what assimilating in entails. Learning the language of the new country is just one step in integrating into that country, along with becoming a citizen and the steps that come with it, and getting any documents you may need for that country. Along with German, Spanish, Italian, French, and Dutch, English is one of the easiest languages to learn.…

    I have got the chance to be a permeant resident of the United State since 2011, but it took me five more years to emigrate. There is a natural resistance to change for several reasons. For instance, preference of our status quo posed colossal resistance to emigrate. Usually, people don’t resist change that they believe for sure is in their best interests and effect it without taking time. When they hesitate or not sure the change might not be in their best interests, resistance appears in the picture and my case also falls in this set-up.…
