    Being literate, as defined in Webster's New World Dictionary, is "the ability to read and write" or "to be educated". By my own definition, literacy is the ability to read, write, and verbally communicate, while also comprehending those writings, verses, or phrases. However, literacy is not only reading and writing. In order for one to be considered literate in today's society, that person must possess the skill of remembering and understanding what was just said or read. Our American culture demands literacy everyday, from being able to read street signs and signals, to understanding contracts and important forms. One is no longer considered literate in American culture if they are only able to read…

While most segregation ended about 50 years ago, segregation has been ruled out completely for almost 200 years with integrated schools and churches in the city of Longtown, Ohio.…

    “Out of three hundred seven million people residing here in the United States, 11.1 million of them are immigrants” (Tabarrok). Immigrants migrate at different times, for plenty of different reasons, and from various foreign countries. Immigrants come to the U.S in hope for a more prominent and better life that entails freedom from the bad stuff happening in their countries and also opportunity for themselves and their children to live a better life. The request for opening the border to immigrants would highly benefit the U.S. Most illegal immigrants are hard-working and take care of their job. The economy would improve greatly with the number of jobs increasing; the U.S would be able to spend the money they use to secure the borders on more essential matters. Immigrants are considered valuable for Americans. Also, if the people in the country are pleased, the government is satisfied with its citizens. The mixing of cultures is highly beneficial for the country’s growth literally and figuratively.…
