The way refugees are being treated is wrong and they deserve more respect. Also those countries had thought they would cause trouble evermore they thought the refugees would to take their jobs so they did not want them in their country. I believe that it is an obligation of the US to accept refugees. Why because they are running the refugees are trying to get away from the danger and protect their families from the cruel or bad things that are happening in their country. The refugees are not getting the jobs they need to support their family. beginning with refugees being treated like outcasts from society. Refugees have been considered outcasts, and also not getting there human rights they are obligated to. There are people out there that …show more content…

If we do not get rid of our prejudice and made up hatred against refugees then how are we going to be able to help them. Refugees have been considered out and not getting the human rights they deserve. They are still people they are just from another country we should treat them the way we treat other people. They have been declined opportunities Thus they are not able to provide and support there own family. Which I believe is cruel and very disappointing it is not fair for them to go hungry and not afford the basic things in life and we are able to. They may seem like a bad influence and there will be more crime only a couple of problems have been addressed from the refugee community. That is only a small percentage of them which does not mean they are all bad. They are people to not trouble makers they just want a new life, when they try to leave there country many of them lose everything to start a new life. Then becomes wasted because we do not want them even though they have all the legal documents for them to come into that country. What point I'm trying to get through to you is they go through all this pain and suffering just for nothing. I hope you agree with my point of view and try and do something about it thank

    A study done by the Public Policy Institute of California showed that 36% of first generation immigrants had not graduated high school. This study shows that immigrants have a very rough start and refugees across the country struggle to live good and solid lives. As soon as the refugees get here we are leaving them all on their own with minimal direction or instruction to go by. Just imagine yourself being dropped into an unknown country most likely not knowing the language and having no clue what anything is. This feeling is how refugees coming to the U.S. feel, and most live in complete poverty for their whole lives. We need to give these refugees a good start in their new homes, and make sure they are being successful.

  • Refugees In America Essay

    1737 Words  | 4 Pages

    Today, most Americans would consider themselves pretty open minded. This country was built on the hard work of immigrants, and therefore should empathize with the plight of refugees. However, this is not the case. America seems to fear the influx of immigrants and refugees. Perhaps even more controversial, is that government workers seem to share that mindset. In my opinion, while the UNHCR does provide some help, they are not doing enough.

  • Matthew Lister Refugee, And The Definition Of Refugees

    763 Words  | 2 Pages

    Those who do not fear persecution are not considered in this definition, for instance, people escaping from natural disasters, because they do not have a fear of persecution. In addition, even though the individuals do face persecution, they are not considered as refugees if they are not ‘on the basis of’ of one of the protected grounds. Even those who face persecution on the basis of a protected ground, they cannot be declared as refugees because they are not outside their country of citizenship. The most controversial notion is that those who have been driven from their homes but who have not crossed international borders, so-called ‘Internally Displaced Persons’ (IDPs), are not in the definition of refugee, even though they have all the characteristics of a refugee except that they have not crossed an international border. The UNHCR has played their part in helping such persons in the last thirty or so years, but has still not considered them as refugees which makes them hard to have full benefits of what refugees should get. Hence, Lister aims to portray that these restrictions have a rational

    Out in the world a lot of people are suffering especially refugees. I believe that we should allow refugees to come America. There are many benefits of them coming to live in America as well. One is we would have a bigger population. Now you may be saying “What about an overpopulation?” and to that I say, well you can just send them to live where you want and plain out tell them that you need them to live there so if they don’t like it they can go somewhere else. Although i doubt we’ll ever need that.

  • The Syrian Refugee Crisis

    1420 Words  | 3 Pages

    A refugee is defined as an individual who has been forced to leave their country due to political or religious reasons, or due to threat of war or violence. There were 19.5 million refugees worldwide at the end of 2014, 14.4 million under the mandate of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), around 2.9 million more than in 2013. The other 5.1 million Palestinian refugees are registered with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). With the displacement of so many people, it is difficult to find countries willing to accept all the refugees. There are over 125 different countries that currently host refugees, and with this commitment comes the responsibility of ensuring these refugees have access to the basic requirements of life; a place to live, food to eat, and a form of employment or access to education. Currently, the largest cause of refugees is the Syrian civil war, which has displaced over 2.1 million people. As a country of relative wealth, the United States should be able to provide refuge for many refugees, as well as provide monetary support to the refugees that they are not able to receive.

    The first chapter of the book provides a highly informative background and history to the concept of refugees, as well as their relevance to the modern international political system. The authors importantly point out that defining a refugee is not simply a matter of academic concern because resulting definitions may mean the difference between life and death for people in conflict zones. Defining a refugee involves political and ethical considerations, inevitably creating disagreement regarding the issue. For example, when refugees are defined in a certain way by the United Nations, research will consequently revolve around such definitions and will help support the status quo of the institut...

Nationless is a very big problem; it may affect more than 10 billion people in this world. Everyone in the world can be having their human right, but some activity in country only able nationals to participate, for example: election. Also much of the stateless didn't have their right, they may never get the ID of the country, just get in to jail, losing the chance of education and health services or can’t get a job (UNHCR, 2014).

    The topic that I have been studying is Refugee’s and Migration. According to the Oxford Dictionary, a refugee is “A person who has been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, persecution, or natural disaster”. In order to keep their families and themselves a refugee migrates to a different country which. This issue is more of a global problem than it is local.

  • Essay About Refugee Crisis

    2200 Words  | 5 Pages

    A family, living in a war-torn country, is uprooted from their home and community due to a variety of reasons such as political unrest, famine, and threat danger. This family flees their country in order to seek safety in a neighboring, more stable country. These people are considered refugees. Refugees are not travelers or immigrants because they are displaced due to some devastating reason, whether that is war or persecution. Other countries extend money, resources, and even their land to help resettle refugees out of political and humanitarian obligation. The United States is historically notorious for wanting to remain isolated during certain global events such as each world war. However, the United States began to create and build on refugee
