Immigrants Coming To America

Traditionally immigrants are faced numerous challenges on a daily basis. America is known as the place where there is a chances to succeed, a place where you can be free. Numerous Immigrants came to America with the goal that they could have a more noteworthy plausibility at prevailing in life. Settlers went out on a limb a when coming to America, for some it worked out well however for others they had a troublesome time here. Regardless of the battles that the outsiders experienced, for example, emerging from others, being isolated from their families, and breaking their way of life, the settlers are as yet thankful to be in America since they were in preferable conditions over they were in their country.

The United States has been the land of opportunity for immigrants. It is a place where immigrants from all over the world come to build a better dream and future for their families and leave from poverty, they come with nothing but determination. One thing that every immigrant brings with them is their culture. A person's culture is strongly tied to the country where they grew up. It is tied to their relationship with their family. Many people come to America from so many different places all over the world. For this reason, people call America a melting pot of cultures immigrants are striving for a better future even though when they migrate to the USA they don’t know the consequences they will face and struggle to be successful living in the United States.

Day in and day out many immigrants enter the United States of America in search of greener pastures. This greener pasture includes higher educational prospects and lucrative jobs. However, life usually does not turn out as many of them usually anticipate. The expectation they usually have prior to their entry to the United States is partly due to the all rosary and nice things they hear about America. They hear such nice things from the media and also from diaspora’s who return from America to their homeland who usually don’t share their entire experiences with them. There have been quite a number of reports and research findings that outline the various challenges that are faced by immigrants in America. I personally share some of these issues as an international student in a foreign country. Prior to coming to Metropolitan State University, I had colleagues who told me about the school and their excellent environments that facilitate learning. Also other friends who were in America made me aware of the opportunity to work alongside schooling which made me more interested as I needed financial aid. With all these palatable information in mind, I did apply for the school and even though the tuition fee was quite expensive considering my socio economic background, I did apply having the mindset of working to meet up certain financial needs. Upon arrival in America, I realized that I was given a fraction of the entire picture. I wasn't allowed to work outside of campus,

In the late 1800’s and early 1900’s many immigrants came to the United States for a better way of life. I chose this particular question because I am first generation American.

Are immigrants a burden to the United States? Or do they benefit society? Many people might say that immigrants don’t help the country and that they should be deported back to their respective countries. Keeping the status of undocumented immigrants as aliens costs the government a lot of money and the broken solution of deporting immigrants costs even more. Immigrants stimulate the growth of the economy and immigrants give the country so much and no one gives them credit for it. There is an ever growing number of people that support immigration reform. Immigrants should be allowed to live in the United States because it benefits the country, the economy, and the general population.

Is America really a land of opportunity? The United States experienced major waves of immigration during the colonial area from the 1880s to the 1920s. Many immigrants Came to America seeking greater economic opportunity, while some others such as the pilgrims in the early 1600s arrived in search of religious freedom. The first significant federal legislation restricting immigration was the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act. Throughout history America has been a land of opportunity but also a land of struggle because yes there were many jobs opportunities and freedom from deportation but people struggled with living conditions and unfair treatment.

Millions of people come to America, the most diverse country in the world, in search for the American Dream. Everyone has their own of American Dream leading them to success. Culture shapes our way of life and is learned through the society that we were born into. Many different kinds of immigrants come to America including white, black, rich, poor, religious, etc. Each have their own way of life and their own customs. Coming to America will be a different lifestyle and it will take time to get used to adopting the various mannerisms. Being born into a certain culture can determine one’s values and behaviors. Traditions change when entering a new setting. Immigrants coming to America have to assimilate to a great degree in an economic and social

Every year, thousands of immigrants, both legal or illegal, come to the U.S. in hope for a chance at a better life. People sacrifice so much for their families and for themselves, to live out the american dream. For immigrants, the American dream is an idea to live life that does not involve war, poverty, or any forms of a corrupt government. Which is why many come to the U.S. to find and receive those freedoms and benefits that all americans have. Sadly, america is not so kind to those foreigners.

The United States is a country primarily revolved around diversity being that it has always been made up of immigrants. For a long period of time now, we have come to face the issue of immigrants entering this country illegally at large numbers, however the number of undocumented immigrants continues to rise, but so has the government’s efforts to either keep the illegal immigrants out or deport the ones already inside. It is one thing to commit the felony of entering a country illegally, but it is another to try and resolve such an issue in an immoral fashion. I understand the government's main concern is to keep its citizens safe, and that for someone to enter a country illegally it is considered crime, however since the recent presidential

Employment continues to be one of the fastest growing industries. Employment can be found about in any occupations. Jobs vary from a business setting, to Production Company, to small organizations and more. Above all, employment comes with requirements and knowledge’s that employers seek to satisfy their needs. If one does not meet the requirement nor have the qualifications it is a competitive industry that continues to impact many job seekers and had impacted my parents. My mother who migrated to America over thirty years ago had experienced several of employment opportunities. An American born, I understand that my work experience may be different to my mother. To compare and contrast it will allow me to evaluate the different work experiences

Immigrants that came to America were pursuing a secure life for themselves and better lives for their children or future children; they envisioned America as the land of opportunity and a prosperous country in which to pursue any endeavor they chose, but no one recognized what was happening to the other half of the country and its citizens--the reality of the thousands of people living in the streets and going months without work--until they arrived. The idea was to come to America and find the American dream, but no one realized just how hard that would be until it was too late. There has always been a false premise of the American dream and the land of opportunity, and the immigrants discovered this the hard way.

Immigrantion is an apperance that people choose where they want to live; people from all over the world would like to immigrant to the countries such as Russia, Germany or Canada. There is no denying that many people choose to come to the United States and be a citizen of this country because America is the greatest country in the world so far. The United States as the largest population of immigrantion is a controversy thing; it has been talked by many authors; they gave their opinions no matter they are from this country or they are immigrants. Immigration has bring either bad thing or good thing to the United States; different people has different views such as every coin has two sides.

Coming to the United States as an immigrant may be a daunting experience. If your first visit/arrival is to the north-eastern part of the country you may be welcomed with different customs and traditions (religion, food, music, dressing, language, family life and so on) by the more liberal society compare to the down-south where religious-conservatism is the order. On my flight, flying from Lagos, Nigeria to New York, I was a bit apprehensive because I sat next to an old white American lady. What caused my apprehension, I don’t really know but my fear quickly dissipated due to the kindness and politeness of this woman. She was always there for me anytime I need help, even before I could ask. It had an impression on me that American people must be very kind.

The total amount of American citizens that are of the working age are unemployed is around 54.7 million people. It's hard enough for American born citizens to get a job already, but now you have illegal immigrants coming here and taking even more jobs. Some Americans only have a high school degree, which means that they are incapable of getting a higher level job because in today's society employers want more educated employees. Also a research done by CIS found that 74 percent of illegal immigrants have no more than a high school education, which means that they are directly competing for jobs with lesser educated American citizens. This a problem and it's unfair because they are taking away opportunities from born American citizens and

During the great immigration period 1900-1920, there were many cultures that arrived on the shores of the United States, for example Italians, Portuguese, French, Spanish and Irish to name a few. These new immigrants were grateful to be here and for the opportunity to better their own lives and that of their future generations. In an attempt to assimilate most of these cultures initially practiced their old countries traditions in the privacy of their home. The reasoning behind this is, the current citizens (native) were in great opposition and feared these new immigrants. This fear from long established native born Americans was in part, from having lost
