Bird migration

There are countless opinions and perspectives of immigration in the United States. The topic of immigration in the United States has become a heated topic with American citizens and political campaigners, especially when America’s economy is brought into question. There are, however, many viewpoints that immigration can be approached from. For example, Rich Furman speaks about immigration through the lens of psychology in his article entitled The Immigration Debate: Lessons for Social Workers.…

I knew America was a ruthless place when I heard the decision made on behalf of the DACA program. The Deferred Action for the Childhood Arrivals program had upheld about 800,000 young adult immigrants from deportation. Some of which they most likely didn’t know they were even migrants themselves until they were old enough to understand. In 2001, the DREAM Act was being formed so that these children can have a chance to receive citizenship. Years go by and nothing is done till Barack Obama is…

The A.N.W.R Drilling, Good or Bad I support the A.N.W.R drilling. The reason I think we should drill is simple, Americas success. Americas economy will go up if we do this, and if the economy is up everything in America will go smoother. America will also gain power because the more money you have, the more you can fund for the U.S army Don't think that it will hurt nature or the natives because the oil companies fund the natives, and if only one ounce of oil spills it is considered an “oil…

Up to 12 million people in the United States are here through unlawful entry. Building a barrier to close off the border is not a cheap investment but the results will be priceless. An increased quality of life for the citizens of the U.S. will be granted if a fence is built on the border between Mexico and the United States. Improved safety, minimized crime, and better workforce are only a few of the many reasons the border should be closed. Control of our borders is required for national…

Border Security Critique Let’s say a new neighbor has moved in right next to you, do you really know who they are? In other words, do you believe you can trust them? I believe that the United States need to increase border security because of the acts of terrorism within our country. Most of them occur from individuals that aren't citizens of our country. According to the Immigration and Terrorism article written by Janice Kephart, “Of the 94 foreign-born terrorists who operated in the United…

“A Quilt of A Country” and “The Immigrant Contribution” are stories of America, stories of us, the real, underlying idea of our nation. Although, the stories aren’t told of the same perspective, one tells of an improbable idea of a world condensed into a nation, and the other tells of the accomplishments of the outsiders, them being immigrants from our surrounding countries and even overseas countries, and how they shaped our nation as a whole. There is a point where they overlap where one…

Parallel Comparison Humanity is still highly infested with groups of people who want to wipe out other groups of people. Unlike Immaculee Illibagiza, I’d find it difficult to forgive people who would dare to wipe out a group of people especially my people. In a similar way, a particular person that I think negative about at this point in time is Mr. Donald Trump. I disagree with his Mexican-immigration stance in this year’s Presidential Election. The reason for this is because he has expressed…

In 2007, Congress considered a bill that included strengthening border enforcement; granting legal status to millions of undocumented immigrants in the U.S.; providing a way to apply for citizenship; establishing a two-year guest worker program; and changing the criteria for legal immigration. But, the opponents of these provisions turned down the bill. Today, immigration laws keep immigrants undocumented longer. Immigration policy is a responsibility of the federal government and the only way…

Recent studies have showed that immigrants from around the world see the “American Dream” vaguely different than an average American. We as Americans see the American dream as a life of luxury, becoming president or having more women’s rights. For immigrants, this isn’t exactly the case. Immigrants from all over the world believe that the overall “American Dream” consists of mainly two different things, freedom and equality. This is a big thing that draws immigrants to…

The Somali Community Association of Ohio website provides many useful information about the Somali community and their background. It’s essential for individuals and governments to learn the history of the different groups in society to gain more knowledge and understanding of those groups and find ways to assimilate them into the wider society. Before 1991, Somalia was one of the most powerful countries in Africa militarily and economically but when the central government was overthrown the…
