There is some who claim that immigration is going to define the kids of my generation. I would have to agree with with those people. Immigration would be part of what defines our generation because they're also part of our generation. The immigrants that are in our age group will pass on all the slang, habits, and traditions to the community that they're in thus change a part of our generation.
Another issue that possibly change the definition of our generation is the climate change that is right around the corner. It should cause a large amount changes to preserve the ecosystem. A possible change is a restriction certain supplies such as paper products. The changes will change the views on capital and whatnot.

The article was about an illegal immigrant named Angie Escobar and her past. One of the stories of her past was that her mother Tulia Mendez, took a dangerous journey through Mexico to reach the US. Without the ability to get a social security number Angie couldn't get a official job and didn't have enough money to get a degree. Due to her status as an illegal immigrant she didn't get the same opportunities as a citizen would. With the deferred action She was able to get a fairer chance in with in the US.

The story of Angie Escobar was one of many of the DREAMers that was able to live their dreams due to the DREAM ACT. The DREAM ACT will allow more good men, women, and children to pursue happiness. No longer will a small child be denied the chance to pursue their dreams. No longer will a fully educated person have to do under the table work out of fear of being deported. This article show how the DREAM ACT could help those how are more than willing to put their time and labour to pursue a better life.

1. I don't know much about Pittsboro because I only lived here for a year and didn't know were to get that knowledge. I do however have a lot of relatives that lived in Pittsboro that worked in the textile mill . My personal opinion of Pittsboro is that it is a small town that has quite a beautiful ecosystem. I lived in Arizona ,the valley, for most of my life, and it was are hot as heck, dusty as heck, and was like living in a oven. my reason for moving to Pittsboro was that my mother was born and raised here.

2. Pittsboro was founded late seventeen hundreds and was a large textile mill and had a thriving poultry industry. A few things that changed in Pittsboro were the population makeup (ethnic) and source of revenue from textiles and poultry to retail and housing. Some of the changes were welcomed while some were not as much. The increase in the Hispanic population was not very pleasing to some of the more traditional folk, Some people have resisted the changes in population makeup. In conclusion, changes are every where even in the south

Lenin quits his job as a recreation coordinator with the North Carolina Youth Soccer Association first because he doesn't like the idea of an office job, and he was the only Hispanic person in the office. Lenin indicated that he felt office work was "too white (153)" He had only taken the job because he thought he would get to play soccer.

I believe that it is a natural reaction to want to quit for being in a place that makes you feel out of place. Being the only person with a different background and beliefs makes you feel like you are standing alone. As the book indicates, Lenin, "began to think everyone was watching him as if he were a criminal (154)."

There is a big political debate almost as controversial as the immigration laws, that debate over whether or not the United States should provide benefits for low income individuals. Currently in the United States we have to forms of federal insurance that help to provide low income individuals and the elderly and disabled. Medicare provides medical insurance coverage for those aged 65 and older, disabled individuals, and people with end stage kidney disease. Medicaid provides insurance coverage for low income individuals and families. It is jointly funded by state and federal resources and it is dispersed by the individual states.

According to my resources, in 1996 a reform made the states responsible for health care coverage for illegal immigrants. Prior to this illegal immigrants could obtain medicaid coverage. However, even when medicaid was available, many illigal immigrants avoided medical care as they felt it would alert the immigration authorities.

With in America today there is a lot issues that are being debate over zealously and the two party system milks these issue for all it worth. An issue that is a political battlefield is the Immigration policies. The Conservatives have the "deport them all because their here illegally", which is, sadly, very supported. To them it is a matter of black and white, so they think that it is okay to act like a bunch of sexist children isolating the other gender.

The Liberals has the "let's give the hard working illegals a chance to prove that their an asset to the US", with in my opinion is a better way to view this. While this is a good idea, it needs some work so the system will not be abused. Anyway, the article above counters the "them illegals are stealing our jobs" stereotype is that the jobs they take don't pay enough and is less than savory for an average AMerican to want (much less actually) do it. Lastly the illegals are more likely to make a new store thusly add more to to the economy.

1. Tolerance is many things and one could say that it differs for every person.Tolerance to some is seen as an important tool to bind people of different backgrounds and ideals together. Others tolerance see it as the act of being indifferent to those that differ from themselves. To those who blind themselves with anger and arrogance views the act of tolerance as allowing others to live peacefully as long as their nowhere near them. My personal definition of tolerance is to not get threatened or treat others because of something like skin color.

2.In today's society there is a great lack of true tolerance. My evidence is how large the group of racist extremists know as the KKK is, for if there was a smallest amount of tolerance in those bigot's heads then they would know it isn't necessary. Thus the role of tolerance in today's society is to adapt to the changes around us

3. The lack of tolerance of the coaches nearly caused a big inter-club issue. I feel that the soccer coach handled it very well.

Q1: Within America today when change occurs, many start to fear change and try to stop it. Sadly, many people don't realize that change is unstoppable and going against it is more harmful than the change itself. One of the changes that is heavily resisted is the changes in the minority groups despite the fact that all in America (except the Native Americans) had immigrant relatives at one point or another. And a fact that many choose to ignore is that many of the immigrants were invited to America to do the work that most people didn't want due to the low pay or poor conditions.

Q2: In this quote the point is that without communication there can not be any connections. Many conflicts can arise when two people with different ideas begin to talk. However, they will eventually find middle ground as long as they don't cut off the communications. It is only when people with different ideas refuse to compromise or isolate themselves from one another that conflicts continue. Then no change is made.

Q3: The KKK never protested near the chicken plant because it would not look as good as doing it at the city hall. They would only get the attention of the plant owners and the immigrants. By protesting at city hall, the KKK looks like they have a political agenda. Another reason that the KKK chose to protest at the city hall was that if they were at the chicken plant the plant owners could have them kicked off for being disruptive. Another possibility is that at the chicken plant there might be more liklihood of conflict that would give them a negative image.

In "The Home on the Field" a one of the main points early on was the increase of Hispanic immigrations to the US. The site above shows the Immigration rate, the population makeup, and the expected population makeup. While the site actually deals with all of the immigrants (Ex. Chinese, Russian, even Australian) so it doesn't mean that the numbers strictly mean Hispanic immigration. But, It also shows that the immigration from Mexico isn't the only issue, just the more noticed.
The article also deals with the rise in population. The overall population growth is also a source of concern due to it constantly rise. If the population doesn't level out we will be facing overpopulation, countless hunger, sick, and unsheltered. If the population keeps growing at the rate predicted than we well become another Inda.

In America today immigration is a big issue to politics, businesses, and communities for obvious reasons. In my personal opinion everyone in one generation or another was been an immigrant and to freak out isn’t going to help anything. It is true that the illegal immigration is a problem; however that doesn’t justify the panic that most are going though at the moment. Sooner or latter the Latinos are going to become a part of America and then a new batch of immigrants are going to show up and we start this process again. In conclusion, immigration is part of the American way of life.

In the novel, “A Home on the Field” by Paul Cuadros, tells about the problems Latinos face in the US. In the introduction of the novel contains quite a few nasty surprises in it. The fact that the North American Free Trade Agreement was quite literally starved the Latinos Farmers out of Mexico was something I didn’t know about. There was been a large amount of deaths because of industrial accidents. The biggest shock was that there have been more than twelve million unauthorized immigrants in the US.
