Antanas Kaztauskis's Choice to Move to the U.S.
The United Stated, The Free Country Antanas Kaztauskis made a right choice when I chose to come to U.S. for better life, better opportunity for his life. I think he should suggest people to come to the U.S. Because as he came to U.S. even he had to face to lot of problem, but every success required hard time to pass. In his old country, people didn’t have to face of hard problem like that in life, but they didn’t have fully rights of human should had. They couldn’t write or read in their own language. There weren’t school for them to learn their own language, only Russian school available. Russian school charged lot of money, most of them can afford it and they had to stay uneducated just because they had to pay high tax and didn’t have enough money to go to school. They didn’t have to vote and no election or meeting happen in their country. Government controlled everything and didn’t give their people any chance to controlled their own policy. They couldn’t have right to have their religion. They would be caught and put in jail because it was illegal to follow any religion. It was just liked they were in jail but lived with their family. Everything was controlled by Government. The shoe maker man could understand and saw through what happen with people in there so he suggest Antanas Kaztauskis to come to U.S. It was the best choice for Antanas Kaztauskis. First he had to come to many place to arrive U.S. The award was very nice. He got a job. He could made money and lived in a freedom country which he could do whatever he want but it had to be legal and not exceed the limit. He had right to learn English, read newspapers, worked and fed himself. He didn’t have to pay high tax and give everything he earn to Government as he usually did in his own country. He could join election to vote for who would be the leader to help the people of U.S. He got lot of freedom more than he did in his old country. The first Amendments of U.S. said that people have freedom of

I was born in a small town in the lower region of Albania where my entire family lived with my grandparents under one household. My parents soon came to the realization that the current living situation was incongruous for a new family, such as ours, to thrive.

    The United States of America originally a nation of immigrants is rapidly becoming a nation of native born citizens. We have by now had an opportunity to produce the native-born individual someone we might label as an “American”. Today, the number of foreign-born persons in the United States is about 3,000,000 of the population, and about 5,000,000 of Americans are the children of immigrants. Due to the new Immigration Reform and Control Act the days of mass immigration are over, but the influence of the movement will never be eased. (Arun and Daniel p.1)…

    America has always been the country of opportunity and new beginnings. It is a place to start a fresh and better life for immigrants (at least that’s what they think). In Upton Sinclair’s book The Jungle Lithuanian immigrant Jurgis wants to better his and several members of his family’s lives. He does this by packing up and traveling to America, but he is unaware of the downfalls in his future. The family members who came along with Jurgis are Ona, his soon to be wife, Jurgis’ father Antanas, Ona’s stepmother Elzbieta, her three kids, and her brother Jonas.…

    His community’s tireless efforts to save him through their protesting until the media got involved is the main reason why he was granted the proper documentation to stay in the country. Navila’s story was especially touching due to the loss of a father in a close-knit family and the unfortunate call for her to cope all too quickly to keep her siblings and mother from crumbling. The film does not have any notable weaknesses due to its brutal honesty which speaks volumes about the issues in post-9/11 America. The documentary’s ability to show how strong humans are both together and individually is key in raising awareness to the issues of immigration, deportation and feelings towards Muslims. The issues for immigrant youth in a post-9/11 world is discussed in Chapter Four of “Youthscapes” by Sunaina Maira.…

    During the late 1800s, there was a huge increase of immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe looking for opportunities in America (Doc A). Majority of these foreigners were victims of religious oppression, famine, and instability caused by political issues. To them, America was a beacon of hope, the land of opportunity, and a haven with open doors for them. But soon they would realize the hardship of surviving in the new world because of their inability to assimilate to the new society. Although the immigrants experienced some success in assimilation through job opportunities and free education, there were still; however, discrimination, and lack of action from both the newcomers and the Americans that proved to become a great obstacle…

    If you were born in a poor country and you could barely survive, what would you do? If you heard that there are opportunities for a better life in more advanced countries, would you try your luck there in an attempt to provide a better life for your family? Although the reasons that brought all the immigrants to the Unites States may vary, a typical case is that in which an individual is born in a family with limited resources and he comes to the U.S. with hopes of having a better life. Those who have empathy would want to help those going through a difficult situation by letting them into our country. However, simply acting based on emotions is not sufficient; reasoning and logic are crucial when governing a nation. After an examination of…

    I am a first generation American born child of an immigrant. I am not Mexican, Latino, Cuban or Filipino; I am the daughter of a Nederlander. My father was raised in Maastricht, a Nazi occupied town in Holland. When he was 19 years old, he won a one way ticket to LaGuardia Airport. Upon arrival he made the decision to assimilate into the American culture. He embraced the language, the traditions and the way of life here in the United States. When I look back and think of my father standing in New York, with no friends, an enormous language barrier, and with little money, I can’t help but admire his passion to be an adult learner. A lifelong learner; for the remainder of his life, he learned what it meant to be an American Citizen. His…

    American Dream Analysis

    Although walking different paths, they ended in similar places: Mira felt betrayed by America since she devoted her almost entire career into American education system but had to face the new rules curtailing benefits for legal immigrants like her; Bharati, the author of this article, although not yet compromised by this country politically, had undergone a hard time fitting into the community that she was supposed to be in. Undeniably, cultural difference between America and India played a significant role in Mira’s feeling of not belonging to America so much—-as the final sentence of the article says: “The price that immigrant willingly pays, and that the exile avoids, is the trauma of self-transformation”. It is the unwillingness of cultural self-transformation that make Mira “happier to live in America as expatriate Indian than as an immigrant American”, which causes her political disadvantages and thus tears apart her American dream of living well as an Indian in America. Unsurprisingly, unwillingness of cultural self-transformation is neither the only nor the most important factor that complicates people achieving American…
