Latino Immigrants
After reading twenty facts about latino it sets as a reminder that the United States is heavily known as the “Land of the Immigrants”. As Hispanics are about 31 % of the population and is expected to grow. The article then goes explaining how not all latinos are immigrants. How there are some who have migrated but many are the children of immigrants. I for one, consider myself to be a latina and am the child of immigrants. I would be part of the 74%. The article focuses on asking questions if Latinos can speak english, be educated, be a homeowner and have health insurance etc. I think anyone has the potential to learn another language, allow themselves to be educated etc. and just like everyone there are certain factors that shape into obstacles.

    Anyone who wants to have a better life for themselves or families should for sure have the opportunity to achieve it. "Everyone is the architect of his own fortune". There are always pros and cons when it comes to immigrating. The pro is that the Latino will probably get a better life in the United States than Mexico. The con is if too many Mexicans immigrates to the United States, then Mexico will lose labor, which will result in a very poor economy. In relation to the republican presidential candidate Donald Trump opinion about the Latinos he criticizes a lot for being a threat to the American society and that the Mexicans are rapist and only bringing crimes and drugs to America.

    The system in which to integrate illegal immigrants is weak, and has been held off for to long. Because the Dream Act has been held off for so long it has not progressed and adapted as it should have already done. In my essay “The Dream” I explained a plan to improve the Dream Act for the years lost. The articles, “Children of Illegal Immigrants”, “Children of Illegal Immigrants Struggle when parents are deported”, “Lawmakers should pass the Dream Act” help to support my idea.…

    Thousands around the county gathered this past Saturday for immigration reform with a message of Dignity and Respect. As I stood at the immigration rally here in Dallas Reverchon Park to show support. I thought, what is my community doing? When the hell did my parent's "Si Se Puede!" turn into a civil disobedience that would lead to an arrest? With my work clothes, right after a meeting in Dallas, I stood there and judged what seemed to be the faces of my neighbors, my friends, my fellow dreamer peers and my own family. As I continued to take pictures merely for the satisfaction of receiving a few Facebook likes on my videos and pictures, I realized that America has given my community and the millions of other undocumented individuals in this country no other choice. They were taking extreme measures like blocking traffic, screaming and being arrested.…

    In a present time, it became very popular to blame illegal immigrants in all-economical problems that we have in US. Some people blame them for not paying taxes, other for "living off the taxpayers." Can we blame on them? I believe that all immigrants who do not have the proper documents are not "welfare cheats" and are not "living off the taxpayers" and I will provide arguments to prove from the book “Food, Inc.” and my friend’s experience.…

    Although many believe that Mexican immigrants are only negative impacts on America, but many of Mexico's finest people come to the U.S: taking Mexico's next generation of renown lawyers, doctors, and scientists. It piques many immigrants interest to know that the United States has a more advanced educational system than Mexico. America shapes realistic dreams for those whom want to be successful lawyers, doctors, or world renowned scientist. The process may not be easy, but for many it is worth the risk. Without realizing, many leave behind towns and cities with shortages of jobs requiring a higher education. Primarily due to economic circumstances it is more likely one will just work at a ranch or in a store, and not many are able to obtain…

    In the United States having fake or papers that are no longer valid is just as good as having no papers at all. Without the proper documentation, you do not have access to things such as obtaining driver licenses, access to public health systems, proper housing, education, banks, and employment. There are some immigrants who forge identity documentation to obtain access to most of these basic benefits. Unfortunately, this is extremely risky and many do not take this chance in fear of being deported or being sent to immigration detention centers, where there you are stripped of your human rights and treated inhumanely. Life as an undocumented immigrant is very hard. They cannot legally work in the US, therefore not being able to provide for…

    Illegal Immigrants today in America are dealing with a more prevalent threat for being deported due to the presidential campaign of Donald Trump. When immigrants act out of order in society it exemplifies a stereotype implemented by ignorant people who have the false impression that their “murders, rapists and drug dealers”. As stated by Donald Trump in one of his interviews, this gives a bad name to all the hard working immigrants in America perusing the American dream. When we see individuals like Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez it helps personify the stereotypes ignorant people categorize immigrants with which doesn’t assist them in their circumstances.…

    I clearly remember arriving in America for the first time when I was five. I was cold and scared. I was cold because it was December and just a few days away from Christmas. I was scared because I had no image of what my parents looked like. My brother and I were raised by our grandparents and relatives in Fujian, China. We were coming to America to reunite with our parents and start in a new environment. Not only was reuniting with our parents awkward for me, it remained awkward for a few weeks. It was like meeting strangers for the first time, but we had to live under the same roof right away in Chinatown Manhattan. I don’t remember the ice breaker or whether there were any for us, but what I do remember is having multiple babysitters because both my parents had to work and my brother had school.…
