Open border policies have contributed to the uncontrolled to the flow of illegal immigrants into countries and in turn generating challenges to the host countries.

Immigration can be justified by many reasons. Some say immigration can be a positive change in someone’s life or a negative change in one’s life. Many people leave for similar reasons.

Emigrants came from every American society whom were the people that migrated west. A majority of them were farmers, cattlemen and homesteaders who migrated west to build a ranch or farm in this land of opportunity. Groups of African American slaves migrated west in order to get freedom. As for others, the reason for migrating west was mainly because they heard of a land in Northwest by the name Oregon. This place was known for their rich soil as well as great mild weather. Moreover, African Americans were the homesteaders who moved west that escaped from slavery. The sharecroppers were the African Americans who worked the land and had hoped to become farmers. Lastly, African American were tenants that decided to move west to become landowners

Immigration is the means for a individual that is not originally from an area or country to migrate to another area, “the action of coming to live permanently in a foreign country” (Google, 2017). When an individual from a different country migrates into a foreign country they undergo “immediate stressors associated with meeting basic survival needs, losing the familiar, learning English, and meeting the demands of life in a new environment. They also soon face resettlement challenges of cop- ing with cultural change, mobilizing resources to meet their needs, and formulating future life goals” (Timberlake, Faber, Wall, Taylor, Sabatino, 2003) Immigrants usually rely on their spirituality, moral frameworks, culture framework and famility sustaining

From the micro-level to the macro-level globalization has transformed the world into a smaller place with constant interactions occurring at every moment between nations, institutions, groups, and individuals. And with this prevalent interconnectivity, migration between the Global North and the Global South has been a controversial consequence of this global integration (Hinojosa, 2015). For this reason one cannot ignore the importance and impact of migrant populations in the country they settle in, and in the countries of origin.

Immigration has become an alarming concern to the global development over the past decade. Most of the developing countries have been the center for the rising cases of the immigration in most parts of the world.
