African American Immigration Research Paper

The first thing we have to do is to take off our blinders, and confront the fact that, immigration, has been detrimental and has come at a heavy cost to African Americans. The bigger problem is that this issue will never be acknowledged, much less addressed, without influencing the existing distribution of power. With this in mind, immigrants, government leaders and activist groups can no longer distance themselves from the plight of the African Americans conditions. Given their own struggles, immigrants should be committed to the African Americans struggle for racial justice. It may an accident that made immigrants part of the problem, but it has also positioned them to be part of the solution in helping African Americans to erase the remnants
of slavery.
