Diversity is what founded the United States, an idea that allowed individuals to immigrate to this country with an ability to escape secular violence, poverty, or to pursue a higher education.…
Write a 750- to 1,400-word paper in which you consider the following regarding the religious group and racial/ethnic group you selected:…
Take a moment and think about your community, are there many diverse backgrounds intertwined? Or is there certain places where different people of different ethnicities congregate? In today’s American society, there tends to be a lot of separation with the many different races of people. Even though the immigrants may be present in this country, we are not intermixed as a whole. Kennedy and Quilden, two very intelligent authors with very contrasting viewpoints. United or divided, that is the true question.…
My prediction is that the NIM will follow high projection alternative in the long run but low projection alternative in the next decade (which expected to be 788,165 in 2030 but then quickly increase to 2,074,282 or even higher in 2060). I consider historical evidence and current world issues in order to establish this outcome. History has proved that the push and pull factors play a key role in immigration trend of the US. People from around the world have been pushed away from their homeland because of reasons such as war, terrorism, violence; natural disasters and economic disadvantages. In the context of globalization, America is one of the first destinations many consider. However, the recent rising tension of terrorism in the Middle East has led to the migration crisis in Europe and created a serious issue not only for Europe but also for many neighbor continents. With a history of being the main target of terrorism, president Trump has issued a policy that bars people from 11 Muslim countries coming to the US. Although this policy hurts many people, there is no doubt that it is a necessary act to ultimately narrow the probability of terrorist attack. Moreover, he also puts restrictions on illegal immigrants and about to build a wall (hopefully a metaphor) at US-Mexican border. These policies will decrease NIM in the next decade and once its effectiveness take place, I believe NIM will eventually grow at high rate. As for fertility rate, I believe it will remain low and weakly decreasing. As a result, I think the middle to low alternative is most likely to occur, because increase in NIM will compensate for weak decrease in fertility but not enough to bring it up to middle to high…
As tolerance in each other’s differences begins, so does our hope of progress. America being built upon the foundation of all men being created equal is often questioned for it truly is the unique diversity that impacts the country. In fact, many would agree on the “little point… [of isolating] anything… resembling nation character” as it is…
Diversity in the united states in not something new here but in fact spans back many generations. Diversity is everywhere and no one can truly get away from it, but by accepting it a person can learn how to lead a better fuller life with variety of understanding for the people that come in contact with. I feel that the biggest thing I learned in this call about diversity is not that there is diversity but that there is a lot of work to be done to farther the peace action between the groups of people knowing this make me realize that the us is not yet a unity but is trying and gives me more will to make my voice heard that we need to start accepting one another.…
For our nation to thrive Buchannan note that unity in diversity can’t exist. National identity must supersede state identity for America to survive (68). America experienced a dramatic increase in immigration in the last few years. Soon European-Americans will be a minority in the nation. Buchanan asks, “And when that day comes, what then will united us as a people (68)?” Racial and religious diversity…
Mutual respect for one another’s culture, a respect that allows minorities to express their own culture without suffering prejudice or discrimination.…
In the near future, our foreign-born population will be larger than ever before. Politicians will focus on immigrants more than they do right now. Other politicians and/or government officials might try to limit immigration like they did before The Immigration Nationality Act of 1965. History could repeat itself if another president (or government official) creates another version of Johnson’s Immigration and Nationality Act. Immigration will have an extensive impact on The United…
Diversity is an important part of American culture. Cultural diversity has helped to shape the way we live everyday as well as the different foods we eat. What really thought me about diversity is that it is not limited just too racial or ethnic groups but other minority groups. The new information I have learned about diversity still has not changed my views. I think it is important to learn about others cultures and backgrounds. Without knowledge about other cultural groups we would only have stereotypes to go off of. Stereotypes without proper knowledge can lead to discrimination or prejudices.…
The diversity in the United States has helped me to better understand and relate to others in ways that I may not have in the past. I have learned much from this class and about myself that there is still discrimination and prejudice in the United States. I have learned that I need to take the time and to get to know a person before I make any judgments against them. There are so many different kinds of people in the United States with the different backgrounds. We do not need to discriminate against anyone until we can look at ourselves first to make sure we are clean. We need to look beyound the core of there skin and what they are wearing, and the way they talk. Since this class I have steped back and looked around to see how people act with each other some get along just fine then you have the few that you can tell are uncomfortable. I have learned that everyone needs to be treated as equals it does not matter what your age, race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or disability. We just need to all get along and to educate others.…
It is important to understand our diverse America because it reminds us that we are not all the same. It reminds us that we are all living in the same country with the exact same rights. People seem to forget that as Americans we all have the same rights and we are all equal. Knowing that there are people that come from all over the world is important because it shows us that America is not made up of one specific race. America is made up of multiple races, not just one.…
I will never understand what it is like to be a young African American male. So learning through this young mans experince was very benefical for me. When lookig at what I learned about others I relaized there are so many problems in the world that I will never experince, but I like to informaed of them. I also learned about how wrong some officers are willing to use their power to put others down. I hate hearing that officers are bad, but it is important to learn from their mistakes and see what I should not do ( I know I would never be racisit towards someone but their interaction was a good learning…
Diversity is a good thing and I like it because I like to see how cultures work. It's also nice to try food and just see how they live. I know that's my opinion but i hope a lot of people can agree with that statement. The reasons I like to experience the different diversity in different countries. It would be very nice to experience it for 2-3 weeks. Also even get to the point were you might would like to live there because it's a good place to you. If you're one of those people that have a lot of money to blow on traveling or something like that. Some other reasons diversity could be good is people like to try the diverse food. The food you don't get in America which would be good. Also the food in different places it's all organic food.…
