Evaluation of Effeciveness

The collection “Coming to America” is comprised of journal entries, biographies, and autobiographies that discuss the social and political transformations that arose from immigration. “Of Plymouth Plantation”, “Balboa”, and “‘Blaxicans’ and Other Reinvented Americans” illustrate how immigrants shape America’s direction. The changes that occurred when settlers migrated seriously impacted the nation they were travelling to. The first of these changes pertains to culture. Immigrants brought their religions and languages to their host country, and that caused a great deal of acculturation, usually to the new religion or language. Government is another principle that was implemented into the “inner workings” of the new country. Lastly, the newcomers

The United States has been a host to a wide diaspora of people. Immigrants have had to transition from their familiar land to a new-fashioned foreign land that they must consider home. They bring with them the essence of their initial homeland such as customs, traditions and beliefs that inadvertently change the dynamics of culture within the United States. As a result the United States is an extremely culturally diverse nation. The continual changes or accretions that Americans encounter have always been a controversial topic depending on the experiences of individuals and communities that have immigrant populations.

By using technical diction, Kennedy is able to attract academic readers. In paragraph six and seven, Kennedy listed out famous industrialists that were immigrants and help build America up, and also scientists that made landmark discoveries or inventions. These list of people can be verified, and the long list helps reinforce Kennedy’s thesis by listing the immigrants and their contributions to the American society. Without these people, America will not be in its current glory, nonetheless being the global economic power and trade. Continuing, Kennedy uses numerical statistics to prove that not only immigrants help build America to its glory, they are an important part of the workforce and help change our culture significantly. By using clear numbers like “23.5 million people who came to America in this period,” and “20 percent of the businessmen, 20 percent of the scholars,…., and 61 percent of actors were of foreign births,” shows us the immense numbers of immigrants and their contributions to the American society. These numbers can be checked, which helps draw in some factual reader. Kennedy also uses abstract diction in his essay. In paragraphs fifteen, Kennedy uses abstract words with positive connotations. These words include “dream”, “confidence”, “possibility”, and “faith”. Words that Kennedy used here allows the reader to think that America is a perfect utopia for people who want to work hard and have a better life because of it. This diction is effective when it comes to empathetic and emotional people, in which Kennedy’s point can across more easily. Kennedy, in short, incorporated an excellent combination of abstract and technical diction to prove his point and also collect the same audiences like

Thesis: People have been immigrating to the US for decades and is something our nation was founded on; however, when it is left unregulated, it can have many adverse affects.

Since the dawn of American colonization in the early 1600s, the notion of immigrating to America has long been instilled upon various people as a stimulating opportunity to begin a fresh chapter in their lives. Even now, this possibility has brought many variations of people to America, culminating a society that brims with dreams and aspirations to form the diversified nation of today. When speaking of the current state of immigration, it is easy to conclude that immigration is heavily discussed from political standpoints. Though this current condition is composed of highly controversial perspectives, many of the early-century viewpoints found in literature genuinely embrace reality, for these writers were indeed immigrants themselves, thus adding an authoritative standpoint over immigration. The Americanization of Edward Bok (1921) by Edward Bok and The America I Believe In by Colin Powell, display the perspectives of two authors, who have lived as immigrants, through their own personal anecdotes. Both Edward Bok and Colin Powell convey a sincerely grateful tone and develop the idea of Americanization and the quest for opportunity through the use of connotative diction in contrast to the Immigration Chart and Political Cartoon which have a downright concrete and pessimistic tone and supports the idea that immigration exposes various challenges to incoming immigrants.

In the article “Immigration Benefits America,” Bill Clinton; the forty second president of the United States claimed many revelations regarding immigrant’s impact in America. For several reasons, the U.S. strengthens the bonds of the community when allocating the allowance of diverse and varying cultures. Many of these immigrants feel comfortable while living in the United States. He asserted that Immigrants and Americans should blend their cultures and traditions to expand the country. As Americans, they should respect immigrants and in return immigrant should follow suit. On the other hand, in the article “Immigration Threatens American Culture,” Lawrence Auster, an American racialist conservative essayist who wrote on immigration and multiculturalism claimed that immigrants are destroying America and they are harming the economy. Auster believes that these problems are occurring because of the American belief system. The American belief system implies concepts of individualism and equality. Clinton’s argues a rather convincing argument throughout his writings, where prejudices and biases are not provided. On the other hand, Auster’s argument was very judgmental and oppressing in many ways.

The first essay in chapter twenty four is “Five Myths about Immigration” by David Cole. He begins his essay by exploiting a group from the mid-nineteenth century called the “Know-Nothings” who blamed all of America’s problems on immigrants. Cole then goes on to acknowledge what he believes are the five myths about immigration. These myths include: America is being overrun with immigrants, Immigrants take jobs from U.S. citizens, Immigrants are a drain on society’s resources, Aliens refuse to assimilate and are depriving us of our cultural and political unity, and lastly noncitizen immigrants are not entitled to constitutional rights. Cole gives reasons why these five myths are not true and by using facts he makes his argument more believable.

Through stories like Blaxicans, Of Plymouth Plantation, and Mother Tongue, the element of immigration is shown strongly throughout.

These encounters affected the people coming to america and the people already in America but overall it changed America as a whole nation. Immigration changed America and the lives of those who settled here through widespreads of cultural diffusion.

Salam expresses how the United State is experiencing “the fight over the future of American national identity in the face of rapid and accelerating demographic change” (Salam). This is further supported by the fact that “immigration can become a social/political issue, where racism can be used to exploit feelings or as an excuse for current woes of local population” (Anup Shah, 2016). Immigration will ultimately cause problems for the U.S. social environment.

The issue with immigration has turned into a noteworthy level headed discussion for everybody. In spite of the fact that pundits contended of negative effects of settlers, for example, overcrowding, drug trafficking, undermining of American Society, workers still have an extraordinary effect in our general public.

The main purpose of their migration maybe in search of employment, take up jobs or may be to study in that country. Now let us discuss the topic at hand that is immigration control in the United States of America, as the article says since the United States is considered as the hub of global networks i.e. many people from different parts of the world migrate to the United States for various reasons like to study, for employment purpose etc. Now let us see the history of immigration in the United States, has dependably been a place that is known for migration.

These laws mirrored the needs of the time, yet regularly speak to political proclamations of people groups '

Immigration, a very popular topic, but most people only think about one side. The U.S citizen side is common knowledge, but what about the immigrant’s side? In the novel, The Book of Unknown Americans, by Cristina Henríquez, and in the article "Sick and Afraid, Some Immigrants Forgo Medical Care”, by Jan Hoffman, the major theme is immigrants and their fear. As shown in the novel and the article, immigrants have feelings and families, hopes and dreams. Immigration is a very controversial issue in the United States, but it should not be, since immigrants are people too, according to both of theses sources. Medical issues, the fear of harm, and unfair treatment, are the major things that both of these sources have in common and agree on. Immigrants are struggling in America, in more ways than one, and many are wondering if coming to America was the right choice.
