American people of Irish descent

together as one to protect and be patriotic before this country was even founded. Two articles, written by Anna Quindlen and John F. Kennedy both have views on immigrants becoming American citizens, and how everyone in this country is so different, but we’re held together by our patriotism and desire to be a true American. In “A Quilt of a Country,” the author, Anna Quindlen, writes all about how America is made up of many different cultures and races. She compares America to a quilt. She…

I am a Caucasian, over forty, middle class, Christian American female; technically a third generation American of Multicultural European Caucasian decent (I do not find it politically incorrect to label myself Caucasian and will refer to that status as white). Growing up I was called a mutt by my family members for all the different nationalities that I was mixed with; Austrian, Czechoslovakian, Irish, Russian, Lithuanian, Slavic or Polish (not exactly sure). On my mother’s side, my maternal…

nose but in rare cases can also spread to the scalp, ears, neck, and chest. The actual cause of the disorder is not fully known and it’s estimated that about 16 million Americans have some form of rosacea.

No, instead we now focus on standardized tests, and our jobs now literally depend on how our students pass these…

similar norms of socialization. Even though the Italian and Mexican cultures are different, my mother and father both get the ingredients they need in order to make the dishes they want within their cultures. They are still going grocery shopping in American stores. The reality is, both of my parents intend to preserve their culture in many ways they can. Just like when my grandmother comes from Mexico. My grandmother being in America, she has her own way to preserve her culture whenever she…

It was the night of December 16, 1773, 342 chests of tea that belonged to the East India Company were thrown into Boston harbor by American Patriots. Americans were throwin this tea into the harbor because we were going to lose money. Britain was selling this tea for a low price so they can make more money for themselves. Ships carrying the tea were refused permission to dock in New York, Philadelphia, and Charleston. By these men doing this it showed the British what all the colonist thought…

exclusively by national laws, which vary and can be inconsistent with each other. Multiple citizenship arises because different countries use different, and not necessarily mutually exclusive, criteria for citizenship. Colloquial speech refers to people "holding" multiple citizenship but technically each nation makes a claim that this person be considered its national. Some countries do not permit dual citizenship.…
