Non-White Immigrants

Despite the interactive program, the federal regulations and laws can propose or void certain social policies and social services for immigrants, making it difficult for the Hispanic population. According to United States Census Bureau, Hispanic residents have become the nation’s largest minority group and continue to exceed in numbers compared to other races and ethnicities. The relationship between the federal government and minorities, Hispanic subgroups, is an imperative yet unascertained platform. For instance, DACA and DAPA programs had been expanded in 2014 allowing parents and children to apply for citizenship or permanent residence without the fear of deportation and given the opportunity to access government benefits. However, the

In the article Is This a White Country, or What?, Lillian B. Rubin interviews native American people and reveals their thinking about immigrants, who they refer to as “the others”. One woman states, “If we keep letting all of them foreigners in, pretty soon there will be more of them than us…” (133). Rubin does not let this statement slide without understanding exactly what the woman was getting at. Rubin reminds the interviewee that when her family came to the United States, people also thought that foreigners do not belong here but she points out that immigrants were “successfully integrated” (133). Mary Anne then explains that when her ancestors immigrated to the United States, it was different due to their white skin color.

HIV/AIDS is a growing social issue in the Hispanic population. Due to the sigma that surrounds HIV/AIDS, individuals living with the disease feels embarrass to admit that they may have it. It can be hard to get these individuals to participate in treatment and prevention methods. To get a better understanding on how to reach Hispanic immigrants we first have to look at the social environment of the population. Hispanic immigrants have inadequate community involvement due to their social economic status, low level of education, inability to speak English, and not acculturated into American culture (Ramirez, Brown, 2003). To help boost morale and reduce stress and stressors that a Hispanic immigrants that has this disease may feel a program

The purpose of this paper is to show that undocumented immigrant population has been decreasing in America. Immigration especially undocumented immigration has been a political issue over the years. The author Robert Warren, served as a demographer for thirty-four years with United States Bureau and former Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). He has written and contributed to many other reports dealing with immigration and unauthorized immigration. In his paper he shows different graphs and charts to support statistics and facts. A major finding in Warren paper is that the undocumented population of the majority of US states declined after 2008; however, 11 states reached their maximum population in 2014, including Texas. Another major

At the beginning of their transition to America, new Latino immigrants, has the best overall health despite been considered the poorest group in the country. One example is of Amador Bernal, who has been in the U.S for almost 25 years and worked 7 days a week, have never been to a doctor once and doesn’t need to. However, as Latino immigrant adapt to the living condition in America, their health and culture deteriorate over time. According to the film after staying for 5 years in the U.S, data showed that Latino immigrants are 1.5 times more likely to have high blood pressure as well as other increases in chronic diseases compare to when they first arrive to the country (Unnatural Causes: Becoming American, 15:26-15:40).

In Two Kinds by Any Tan, the young girl was a first generation child of an immigrants. With this title comes a lot of pressure and burdening from the parents to do above and beyond in life. But most impotently as an immigrant’s child there are expectation of having a good job that pays very well. For first generation children of immigrants there is a lot of responsibility on their shoulders as well. This is proving through Two Kinds and my two sources that explain and shows examples of what actual people deal with, the struggle of how hard it is to live up to their immigrant parent’s standards. There are standards, burdening and pressure on these children shoulders daily which can have a bad effect on them.

In the past year, there has been a lot of coverage in the media about illegal immigrants coming into the United States. Illegal immigrants crossing the border into the United States became one of the topics mentioned in the recent presidential campaign. President Trump told his supporters that Mexico is dumping thousands of “bad people” into the US because they are drug dealers, rapists, and murderers (Walker, 2015). President Trump cited a recent murder of a young woman living in California as evidence that all illegal immigrants are bad. The woman was murdered by a man who was deported five times because he had a criminal record. Trump told his supporters that Mexico sent the man back into the United States

Contrary to belief, many immigrants do not want to come to America, they are forced to move to America because they have no other option. Immigrants aren’t criminals crossing the border to bring in drugs or steal jobs, they are creating a new life in America. Immigrants are fleeing their country because of poor government, poor education, and crime. Immigrants deserve our sympathy, when pilgrims came to America, they too, were forced to leave their native country and hope for a better life. Furthermore, immigrants boost the economy and abide the law. While immigrants do take jobs from other Americans, those positions were not made specifically for Americans. Immigrants have every right as americans do to work. As far as illegal immigrants “stealing” jobs, it is not their fault for getting hired, it is the corporation that hired them. To immigrants, america is a symbol of liberty and a chance to succeed, Americans should not punish them for seeking a more prosperous future.

Why is there such a vast population of illegal immigrants in the United States? The Obama Administration stated that discord and destitution are the typical circumstances in Mexico and Central America that instigates illegal immigration into the United States. According to a report released by Pew Research Center's Hispanic Trends Project, “The total number of migrants living in this country without papers edged up from 11.3m in 2009 to 11.7m last year, with those from countries other than Mexico at an apparent all-time high” ("US Illegal Immigration May Be Increasing, Study Shows"). There are, in fact, some solutions currently instituted by the government to control the immigration issue, such as deportation or amnesty. However, another option should be disclosed to both help the suffering immigrants seeking refuge in America as well as to crack down on Mexican and Central American criminals in the United States and those living in America illegally. The United States has an obligation as a global superpower to adopt legalization without citizenship.

The immigrants, great people who basically settle at one place forever. Though these people are amazing people who settle at different places, sometimes permanently. Sometimes they live in the same house for generation to generation on and on again. The thing is that they do that if they scored on some great land.

We all come from different places and ethnicities, and because of having a dream, people fled away from their home to seek for something to make their life better. Going to a country like United States, is not only a dream but also, an opportunity because many people think that America is the best place to settle in, where work, and education are an easy access. Though this statement is partly true, it is not that easy. Everyone envied because America is a great nation because it's a country of opportunity, but a part of it also is a mixture of feelings that are hard to explain especially if you are immigrant. Every day in your life, you are fighting for something in order to fit in and survive. However, in the process of fitting in or blending to a certain place, people, and culture, it requires a lot of personal choices and a lot of effort as an immigrant. It does not only affect you as a human, but also it draws a lot of attention, conflicts and tension between the government and community. Most immigrants have a harder time to adjust or assimilate even though they speak fluent English and eat American foods. Whenever you see a person of white complexion, people assumed that blue eyes and blonde hair are the characteristics of an American, though these are how we perceived American long time ago, this are still the standards of a few now and doesn’t make a big change at all. The judgement of how a person look physically and how they

Currently both the United States and Turkey government have suspended all non-immigrant visa services for travel between the two countries, after the arrest of a US consulate employee in Istanbul. This affected many citizens, including travelers, since it blocks Turks from travel to the United States, and vice versa, for the foreseeable future. So, here are some scenarios about travel to Turkey

The United States of America was created by Europeans immigrating to North America. Over the past three hundred years European immigrants have worked hard to develop the United States for it to become one of the most advanced countries in the world economically, culturally, and militarily. Although the U.S is made of mainly immigrants who came to this country and made it theirs, they are not fond of immigration themselves, even the ones closest to them, such as Mexican immigrants. The U.S. should grant Mexican immigrants citizenship because they are upstanding people and contribute to American, culturally and economically.
