Henry Payne's Cartoon For Illegal Immigrants
Henry Payne's cartoon "For Illegal Immigrants by Illegal Immigrants" shows us the Irony of Donald Trump wanting to build a Wall/ Fence, to keep illegal immigrants out of the united states. Payne's cartoon is ironic because Trump wants to get rid of immigrants but yet immigrants are the ones that do the dirty jobs other legal people don’t want to do. Trump wants illegal immigrants to build the very wall that will keep the out of a country that offers liberty and many opportunities for all kinds of people. Payne’s cartoon has bias against the fact that Donald Trump Wants to build a wall to keep immigrants out of the United States. Payne’s cartoon will help my paper because it tells people that are in favor of the wall being built that without

    This is a satire paper written on an AP Literature and Composition level. It is a satire about illegal immigration. hope you enjoy.

    ¡Cruza la frontera ya!There is a serious circumstance that is troubling America: the inability of we Americans to accept our Hispanic counterparts. This is no forgivable matter; it is surrounding our country. Sure they "illegally" cross the border but is there really a difference between the America-Mexico border and the Texas-New Mexico border? I didn't think so. These citizens who come to America benefit us in so ways; many of which we have never even began to consider.…

    Mexico-Arizona Border Anthony Suau Summary

    The author appears to assume that the audience values seeing an authentic representation of immigration at the Arizona boundaries. When the audience clicks on the TIME photo album “The Great Wall of America” the caption reads, “TIME Photographer Anthony Suau tracks the progress of the US effort to build a permanent barrier between the United States and Mexico” (TIME). Suau predicts that the audience becomes intrigued by the building of the wall and their views against immigration because he shows the hardships of immigration. The author as well as the audience both holds meaning towards seeing what the building of the wall looks…

    Showdown In The Sonoran Desert Summary

    Author Amanda Rose has taken it upon herself to bring to light the horrific experiences of modern day immigrant’s flight to freedom through the Sonoran Desert. In addition to addressing the immigrant’s plight, she calls into question the immigration process or lack thereof, the United States legislative broken immigration policy, religious leaders and their roles, US Border Patrol and US citizens. Her intent is to open up a dialogue on US immigration policies and educate the American public on the devastating consequences of a hapless built dividing wall between two countries which are felt not only by the immigrants but by the people that live in and around the border. Rose illustrates the conflicts that everyday Americans citizens living on the border face in trying to help and solve border issues with their personal solutions. Do they work? Are they…

    Analysis Of America's Mixed Messages To Foreigners At The Gate

    In his op-ed piece “America’s mixed messages to foreigners at the gate,” published in the Seattle Times in 2004, Ruben Navarrette, Jr dives into a topic prevalent if not more so in the fourteen years that have passed since this article’s publication. Navarrette criticizes the message broadcasted to those who immigrate to America and specifically from Latin America illegally: “Come legally, or don’t come at all.” He not only retorts in his op-ed piece how oxymoronic this message comes across by providing examples of these messages which present mixed signals from issues such as employment, education, and taxation but also continues to perpetuate the narrative on America’s disorganization and lack of a clear plan.…

    Unit 8 Assignment 2: Visual Argument Analysis

    The cartoon that I chose is called Border Security. I find it very interesting that the cartoonist chose this type of background. Also having Border Security, NOT, and Amnesty all highlighted in red. The text in this cartoon is very unique to its time, because of the major focus that has been on border control. I believe that the cartoonist targeted a specific type of reader in this cartoon. That type of reader would be the nave and ignorant people focused on this topic of boarder security and bringing up unreasonable ideas as to why we need more border control and to send them back to their country. I also find it interesting that in this cartoon the Native Americans are talking about border security to each other, about the Europeans, just to find out that the Europeans in the future kill, rape, and steal the Native Americans land and people. To me it looks like the cartoonist is trying to get a point across that we need to take a look at ourselves and what we stand by, or perhaps the cartoon just may be telling us that this is a cycle. When talking about the exigence of this cartoon, the fact that I believe everyone should open their eyes and try to relate toward each other is my main motivation on writing about this topic.…

    Critque of "Our Wall"

    In “Our Wall”, the author, Charles Bowden gives a detailed account of the conflict associated with the wall along the United States-Mexico border. The author makes his points through interviews with many different people along both sides of the border along with historical events and facts. Bowden is a very credible source, with years of experience working in the area and creates a very thorough account of the issue. The author seems to take a stance against the wall, but he does point out the other side of the argument and things that could be good about it. I wish the author would have made his viewpoints more clear because they are a little bit hard to pick up on. Another item I think was missing from the article that could have made it stronger was a statistic.…

    Migra Mouse Book Report

    Migra Mouse: Political Cartoons on Immigration is a book written by Lalo Alcaraz which encompasses his interesting opinions on immigration and America’s view of Latin Americans. Alcaraz attacks racists, politicians, and American society throughout his book, Migra Mouse: Political Cartoons on Immigration, and does a pretty good job of it too. Alcaraz’s book is certainly worth reading because it offers a new, fresh way to look at the ever-so perplexing topic of immigration.…

    Herbert Meyer Why Americans Hate This Immigration Suicide Analysis

    In Herbert E. Meyer’s article “Why Americans Hate This ‘Immigration’ Debate” he talks about how immigration has always been a big talk among congressmen and American voters for a long time. What the Democrats and Republicans bring to the table is not what Americans want done. When Meyer tells us about immigration he states, “You come here with absolutely nothing except a burning desire to be an American,” which is why we find so many people of the Hispanic decent taking low paying jobs (Meyer 70). Meyer explains the reason the immigrants do this is so they can put a roof over their family’s heads and provided a source of food. Immigrants even make sure when their kids are in school they get the best possible grades so their kids will succeed…

    Rhetorical Analysis of the Essay ‘Our Wall’

    ‘Our Wall’; written by Charles Bowden; is one of the essays focused on border problems, especially with the illegal immigrants and smuggling; and the wall to prevent the same. The author is an American non-fiction author, journalist, and essayist who mainly depicts the realism, and presents it to the society with the hope of change. In this essay, ‘Our Wall’, he cites the wall is made by U.S in order to control the illegal immigrants from Mexico. The essay collects views and comments before and after the establishment of wall of the people from both sides. This essay seems to be in against of the wall, which generally breaks up the personal ties and humanitarian relationship of the people in and out of the wall, and the wall stands still long way clearly showing the silent harsh voice of separation. That means we are not the same, we are of different country with different backgrounds. However some people are happy with the wall because they feel secured with the presence of the wall unlike before when illegal immigrants come and vandalize their house and take away their belongings. The essay gives the examples of the history too in against of the wall. The walls in the history, like Great Wall of China, Berlin Wall and Rabbit Fences of Australia are never succeed. These walls always try to prevent the people but can never prevent the will of the people. This essay is able to appeal its audiences with logic, authority, and emotion.…

    Pros And Cons Of Executive Orders

    The people on the Liberal or Progressive side of the political spectrum are most outraged over the Muslim and refugee ban, the building of the wall between Mexico and the USA, and the Key Stone and Dakota Access Pipeline revival. The Muslim and refugee ban, as well as the Wall, are enacted on the discriminatory belief that all Muslims are terrorists and that all Mexicans are rapists or thieves. The ban of Muslims and refugees is only directed at the Middle Eastern countries that Trump has no business ties to, which is a little odd. Why not ban all Muslims? On the other hand, the wall is estimated to cost between 12 and 15 billion dollars. This wall is pointless. Why not direct this large sum of money to actually helping the American people? Trump could improve education, healthcare, and many other things. Trump has and will waste billions of dollars just to be racist and to benefit his business…

    Con Illegal Immigration

    One of the most controversial political issues of today is that of illegal immigrants from Mexico. Illegal immigration into the United States is a problem that should be stopped, as it is unfair to both Americans and to the people of the country from which they illegally immigrated. It is thought that the majority of illegal aliens residing in the U.S. are Mexicans (Anderson 55). Roy Beck clarifies the situation by stating, “The national consensus is that the United States should be a post-mass immigration country has included most leaders of business, religion, labor, academia, and social work. “Illegal immigration from Mexico must stop by means of different policies and other methods of prevention, because the effects on both Mexico and the United States are predominately unfavorable. Whether the illegally take jobs, the continued influx or illegal immigrants promotes disrespect for the law and seriously limits our ability to control out immigration policy.…

    Pro Immigration

    America is sometimes referred to as a "nation of immigrants" because of our largely open-door policy toward accepting foreigners pursuing their vision of the American Dream. Recently, there has been a clamor by some politicians and citizens toward creating a predominantly closed-door policy on immigration, arguing that immigrants "threaten" American life by creating unemployment by taking jobs from American workers, using much-needed social services, and encroaching on the "American way of life." While these arguments may seem valid to many, they are almost overwhelmingly false, and more than likely confused with the subject of illegal immigration. In fact, immigrants actually enhance American life by creating, not taking jobs, bolster social service funds through tax payments, and bring valuable technical knowledge and skills to our country. If we are to continue to excel as a nation, the traditionalists who fear an encroachment of foreign-born Americans must learn to accept that we achieved our greatness as a result of being "a nation of immigrants."…

    Analysis Of 84 Lumber: Let's Build A Wall

    Immigration especially illegal immigration has been a very touchy subject in the United States for a while now, but within the last few years it has been brought into light for review. This includes a suggestion by our current president, Donald Trump, who has said many times “I will build a great, great wall on our Southern border and I’ll have Mexico pay for that wall" (Donald J. Trump). Deportation has been on the rise, and so has separation of families. In this commercial by 84 lumber we get to walk in the footsteps of a mother and daughter who are attempting to cross Americas southern boarder. After arriving, they are greeted by a newly constructed “great wall” (Trump).…
