Complainant reasserts her allegations. Complainant acknowledges that Martinez did not actually say a racial slur; however Complainant states that Martinez’s behavior (shaking his finger and interrupting her) are kinds of behaviors that people use against African-American to discredit and to belittle them. Complainant cites that Martinez’s behavior are “racial microaggressions” which are brief and everyday slights, insults, indignities and denigrating messages sent to people of color.…

As a recent immigrant myself I see a great value in the programs like cultural orientation for the new members of our community. Ascentria provides services for people of various cultural and social backgrounds. Lack of knowledge about the peculiarities of American culture, social norms as well as the ways this society functions can not only put the newcomers in uncomfortable situations, but also compromise their safety and security. I believe it is critical to provide the people who are to make this country their new home with all the necessary information, which would help their adaptation and integration into the American society.…
Even though I have spent some time volunteering at the Salvation Army and at the local food bank, I desire to one day spend more time helping out my community. In particular, I would love to give legal aid to immigrants. Many people view immigrants as criminals, but I do not. Growing up in an immigrant household has allowed to see immigrants for what they truly are. That is, they are the most hardworking people one will ever encounter. No matter if the day is scorching hot or freezing cold, immigrants go out to work each day, determined to get ahead in society. Carrying the same work ethic, I plan to overcome the many challenges I will face in law school. I know that in the end, I will successfully overcome such…
Many immigrants came to the United States for different reason and for a new opportunity. They came to America for a hope of starting a new, better life since they probably had a rough life back home, or to get away from previous problems back home. Once the immigrants arrived they were first medically examined by the medical examiner, me.…
In conclusion, as a first generation immigrant I could protest that the process of immigration is not easy on any individual. We do not move because we have too, honestly nobody would want to leave the people and things they are familiar with and move to another country. However, we do these things in search of a new life, better education, seeking safety or better jobs. Immigration is never easy on the individual no matter how much time goes by, eventually you learn to cope in order to survive. During the process, many people face mental illness, severe depression, anxiety and stress.…
One important reason that undocumented immigrants should get a path to citizenship is that costs too much money to deport undocumented immigrants. According to Charles E Schumer, Upfront magazine 2016 In 2013 the Senate passed a bill that would have done just that right thing our Reform Bill would have established a tough but fair Pathway to citizenship. What Senator Charles Schumer to saying here is the evidence helps my claim by giving information about spending money on the the undocumented people the money could be used for hospitals and other needs. Now some might argue that sending undocumented immigrants back might help our country from trouble. But the argument that cost to much money to deport undocumented immigrants.The key…
Immigrants are created through hardships, weather they be monetary, location based, or otherwise. They are a breed of people created through circumstance. This reigns true for a recent interviewee of mine from Chihuahua, Marianna. A girl only the age of 16 who, by definition, moved from her own country for permanent residence in the US. After an extensive (short) interviewing process I was than asked to compare either a personal story of immigration within my family or broadly relate the hardships of an old school mexican immigrant that goes by the handle of a “Bracero”. To that of the experiences of Marianna. Seeing as how I lack the one to one equivalence to relate to any form of an immigrant I will be comparing my dad's upbringing (or lack…
As an Immigrant, there were many challenges I faced whether it's related to language or understanding the culture. My family moved to United States of America when I was in 6th grade. I was always told by my parents that building a successful career is very important. This idea of building a successful career never stuck in my mind until the junior year of high school when I all sudden all the teachers and counselors started talking about going to college build a career in a field that you were interested in and also important to you.…
People immigrating to America today face a lot of obstacles. For example it may be hard to find a job because they may not be a skillful speaker yet and will also be competing against the millions of Americans looking for jobs. In America there is a total of 4.9 percent of the population unemployed, that of which 7.2 percent are college degree owners. For a newcomer it has become more difficult job searching because many high end jobs that people go to college for have been taken, leaving those people with degrees having better resumes for low end jobs. Also If a foreigner has trouble with speaking English the job may also be more biased as in they may be seeking out more fluent speakers.…
I grew up in a primarily white middle-class suburb in Dallas, Texas. I was a millennial boy living the American Dream along with his immigrant parents. My neighbors were good people, I lived on a cul-de-sac playing sports and other classic games like tag. I was the only foreigner in my neighborhood (Turkish-American), but I felt as though I fit in.…
Being an immigrant to this country has shaped my whole life to become what it is now. Escaping from a country that was stripped of all its worth due to a corrupt government and war, makes you truly appreciate life. If you’re an immigrant education is very important, because that is something no one in this world can ever take from you. From the time I moved to American, I have known I’ve wanted to have a huge impact on this world. I have honestly wanted to be so many different things. I have so many ideas, that it doesn’t fit into one specific field. When I was younger I wanted to be a dancer, teacher, writer, pastry chef, clothing designer, psychiatrist, and up until recently I wanted to be a pediatrician. It wasn’t until two years ago that I decided I definitely want to be a psychiatrist.…
Being an immigrant brings both positive and negative impacts on my life. I cannot say that I was totally ignorant about the decision my parents had made for us. But I was totally unprepared when that day had finally come. Obscurely I remember, when we arrived at the LAX airport, I couldn’t understand a single word of this new world surrounding us. It seemed like all of my endeavors in English classes were useless.…
As any child with immigrant parents will tell you, you have three career choices after college: doctor, lawyer, or engineer. My parents, arriving in the United States over twenty years ago, had said the same to me. I’d settled on lawyer because math made me sick, and soon began to build the perfect law school resume, taking every internship in law and politics that I could get my hands on. I spent several months at a tiny probate firm, had a stint in a D.C. lobbying office, and even had the chance to work on Pramila Jayapal’s historic bid for Congress, campaigning to help her become the first Indian-American woman to enter the United States Congress. But my heart was never in politics in the way that I saw Representative Jayapal’s was, and…
