For more than 300 years, immigrants from every corner of the globe have settled in America, creating the most diverse and heterogeneous nation on Earth. Though immigrants have given much to the country, their process of changing from their homeland to the new land has never been easy. To immigrate does not only mean to come and live in a country after leaving your own country, but it also means to deal with many new and unfamiliar situations, social backgrounds, cultures, and mainly with the acquisition and master of a new language. This often causes mixed emotions, frustration, awkward feelings, and other conflicts. In Richard Rodriguez’s essay “Aria: Memoir of a Bilingual Childhood”, the author

The manager will need to ensure that they have the correct level of rapport with their employee. Too familiar in nature may be misconstrued as forward and harassing in the wrong context. However no personal rapport whatsoever may provide the receiver of the information with the impression that the sender of the information is just not interested. A fine line must be weighed up for each individual. When a good rapport has been achieved, then the person will uncritically accept suggestion or advice which they are given.

Social class has been always been in our society since its establishment. Back then, white,

Migrants are effected by the language used to describe them. Researchers have been attempting to prove the how and the why of this statement. To do so they have explored family dynamics, deportation laws, childhood development, language framing, gender neutral language, racialization and criminalization. Scholars in many fields have addressed these important questions. Within Linguistic Anthropology, scholars such as Sarah Gallo (2014) and Hilary Parsons Dick (2011) have explored the role of language in shaping immigrant communities. Within Legal Anthropology and Law reviews, meanwhile, scholars such as Phyllis Chock (1996) and Olivia

In Migrant Hostel, it is said that ‘nationalities sought each other out instinctively - like a homing pigeon.’ This statement is reciprocated in The Happiest Refugee, when Do describes how new Vietnamese refugees stayed with his family. The communicative nature of journeys is therefore explored in both texts by highlighting how shared experiences and cultures bring people together. The segregative nature is also explored when it is said that ‘[nationalities were] partitioned off… by memories of hunger and hate’. The quote shows that conflicting pasts also segregate people in journeys, reinforced by the harsh alliteration of the ‘h’. This is shown in The Happiest Refugee when Do is presented ‘with the hardest gig of his life’ where he must present in front of Vietnam War veterans. The veterans are hostile at first, greeting Anh with silence; another example of how conflicting pasts can segregate people. Migrant Hostel and The Happiest Refugee demonstrate the segregative and communicative nature of journeys throughout their

For the podcast, I interviewed Lina Abdulnoor, with the intention of exploring the intricacies of refugeehood by analyzing Lina’s refugee experience. Lina lived in Iraq with her family until they began receiving death threats due to their religious beliefs. Convinced that they needed to flee the country to survive, they left Iraq as refugees. After leaving Iraq, they settled in Jordan, where they waited two years until the U.N. to approve their request to move to the U.S. in 2012. Lina and her family initially settled in Virginia, where she experienced culture shock as she adapted to American culture and the English language. However, Lina did not feel accepted in Virginia; her experiences in the state led her to think that Americans treated her according to negative stereotypes of Iraqis. After living in Virginia for several months, Lina and her family chose to resettle in San Diego, California, which harbored a larger Iraqi population than Virginia did. Supported by San Diego’s Iraqi community and various refugee organizations, Lina flourished, and she currently studies at UCSD while holding a stable job.

Rachel Aviv’s, “The Trauma of Facing Deportation” is an enticing article regarding Swedish refugee children who unfortunately have fallen unconscious, due to heartbreaking news of their family’s awaited deportation. This article discusses the story of Georgi, a Russian refugee, who moved to Sweden when he was five years old, and encounters a tragic turn of events, which quite literally leaves him speechless. Growing up in Sweden, Gerogi had become rather assimilated into Swedish culture, speaking the language effortlessly, and making numerous friends who seemed to take a genuine liking to his character. Having reapplied for asylum in Sweden, Georigi’s family received the disappointing news of denial, changing both their lives and Georgi’s

A world of system designed to keep people in unjust and unequal positions is held in place by several interrelated expression of "power over": political power, economic power, physical force, and ideological power (Bishop, 1994: 36). So, we can say power is defined as a possession of control, authority or influence over others. In terms of power of dominant groups over subordinate groups, we define power as domination of one group of people over another in major important spheres of life. Power inequities have been in existence throughout the history of humanity and the ways of manifestation evolved from extreme overt oppression to subtle, covert oppression. Three major forms of power inequalities discussed in this paper are

My name is Christi. I was born February 17, 1999. And I know I have been separated from my immediate family and selected to begin a new society on planet Fuji. I, along with four other children, was chosen to develop our new society into something livable. Our goal is a peaceful cohesive environment. I realize the opportunity I have to continue humanity is greater than mourning any losses; however, I will never forget the life I left behind. I have already shed many emotional tears for the loss of my mother, father and siblings. The memories I have will no doubt guide me into the future.

Lj Smith, the author of the Vampire Diaries, wrote, “...but right now everything looks strange to me, as if I don’t belong here. It is me that is out of place, and the worst thing is that I feel there’s somewhere that I do belong, but I just can’t find it.” In 2016 65.3 million people are refugees around the world that are displaced throughout the United Nations. These people now have to adjust to a new life, in a new country, and a new “home.” Although some might believe that newcomers, immigrants, and refugees adjust and adapt to culture easily, Lahiri illustrates through Interpreter of Maladies the difficulties and issues men and women experience when adjusting to a place and culture where they do not feel at ease.

An individual’s role in society can vary with the number themes the characters exhibit. When there are signs of fate, cruelties, weaknesses, and desires for justice and catharsis the role of an individual becomes more complicated. In Antigone, most of those themes are shown thus a single person’s influence or role on society is very small and complicated to attain. However in The Lottery the society has most of the control and there is not many signs of those characteristics so the role of a person is simplified because they are nothing compared to the society combined. Finally, in The Penalty of Death, there are signs of many of the themes but since it is the societies influence against that of an individuals, it is simplified because

Every society has a system of government that impacts the values and interpersonal relationships of its citizens. This can be founded on either religious or philosophical doctrine. A few famous examples are Christianity in the Western world, and Confucianism in the East. The latter transcends religion, for Confucius teachings influence daily interaction between people on every level of society. More significantly, it demands a hierarchy within families that centers on expressing respect for the male head of house.
