  • History of Latino/a Immigration to the U.S.

    Eleanor Roosevelt said, “the future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” That statement holds strong for immigrants in America. Equal access to opportunities allows immigrants to achieve the American dream. Their success correlates with America’s success because of the contributions immigrants provide to America. Unfortunately, the current immigration policy in America denies many immigrants the American dream. It is crucial to understand the historical context of immigration in America. Initially, most immigrants were from Europe and were not restricted by any immigration laws. Now, most immigrants come from Latin America but are restricted to severe immigration laws. The Latino/a community is one of the most severely affected groups because the current immigration system disproportionally affects Latino/as. Recognizing how the experience of Latino/a immigrants have been both similar and different in the past from other immigrant groups and dispelling common misconceptions about Latino/as today bring an awareness how Latino/as are affected.

They even hide in trucks and a few immigrants are luck to pass the discriminatory process of being selected for a VISA that becomes more complex every day, causing more immigrants to become illegal Aliens.

After, arriving to the United States as an Illegal Alien if they were lucky to survive the 8 or as much as 20 hours walking across the dry desert, they then have to face starting from less than a fetus because a fetus has loving parents that will provide a shelter, protection, and food. On the other hand, immigrants do not have shelter, protection, food, job, language, sometimes they do not have anyone to ask for support.
