Immigrant Contribution Summary

America was founded by immigrants, everyone is a descendant from an immigrant. A Quilt of a Country was about how everyone in America is so different and diverse. Also how everyone a long time ago only wanted to be with people like them. That it was very taboo to be with someone from a different country who was different from you. The story The Immigrant Contribution was about how immigrants were a big contribution to America, and all Americans have been immigrants or descendants of immigrants. Also, that the American economy has benefited from the immigrants who came here and contributed to our country like in the steel industry, the meat packing industry and electricity. Overall immigrants make up America and if everyone was the same, America wouldn’t be the great country that it is today.
Even though both passages are very different, they both talk about how immigrants have changed America for the better. They talked about how people are all different and that it’s a good thing or America would be very different. They both also talk about how everyone is an immigrant or a descendant of an immigrant. Immigrants have brought many useful inventions

into our country, we should be very thankful for what wanted to they’ve done. Both stories also touched on That immigrants come to America to have a better life, to have freedom, and economic opportunity.
The passages also have very many differences, like the passage The immigrant Contribution talked mainly about immigrants who came to America or were descendants of immigrants, and the inventions that they contributed to our society.

It was also more of a informational piece. The Quilt of a Country was more about the growing of our country, and about how people were more uptight, less tolerant and they just wanted to be with people who were like them . Now our country has changed and people are more accepting than they use to be.You used to not be able to marry someone who wasn’t the same ethinisty as you were. Now you can marry anyone no matter where they come from,their religion,or their gender The country has changed but we are still together as one, other countries would have separated and changed their

name.
In conclusion, the two stories have many similarities and differences about how immigration has been so important to our country. That without immigration America would just not be America. America Is made up of immigrants, we are all immigrants and don’t even realize it. We also don’t realize how much immigrants have contributed to our country, all the things we have from them and how they impact our everyday lives. We should be thankful for all the different immigrants that came to America, without them we would all be the same.
