Esperanza means that Miguel is still a second class citizen. She means that he is still on the other side of the river. He is still treated badly, because he cannot get a good job, or swim without cleaning the pool. She means she thinks America is an awful place for Mexicans.

When Esperanza  told "Miguel you are not standing on the other side of the river" that means that they use to be rich in Mexico and now they are poor in America. Also I think that this means that Miguel has not improved since they left Mexico  and she still feels like the second class citizen. In paragraph 44 it says "Are you standing on the right side of the river". Also in paragraph 42 it says I don't want to hear your optimism about this land of possibility when I see no proof". This means Esperanza does not want to hear about his hopes and he will work hard to get to the other side of the river when she does not see any sign.

She means she is depressed  and mad at Miguel  for getting a job in america instead of getting a job in mexico. In the story I read asparagus Esperanza is mad at Miguel . In the story it says Esperanza throws the dough at the wall and slams the door shut because she is mad I read this in paragraph 22 . I think think this is why Esperanza is she is mad because Miguel id getting a job in america and Esperanza says america is too unfair for a job.

When Esperanza tells Miguel that he is not standing on the other side of the river she means that nothing has changed since they left Mexico, she still feels like a second class citizen. Evidence to support this is ¨...Are you standing on the other side of the river? ...¨ More evidence is ¨...I don't want to here your optimism about this land of possibility when I see no proof!¨ This shows that Esperanza doesn't want to here about all his hopes that he will work hard and get to the other side of the river when she doesn't see any sign.
