Trends in Immigration Historical Implications By Angel Browne

Trends in Immigration In the early parts of our history, most immigration to the ‘new world’ was from western Europe. In the 1800’s Asian immigration was becoming increasingly more prevalent. In the 1880’s large groups of Jewish people immigrate 1910 most immigrates are from Eastern Europe and Italy Immigration to the States triples after WW Starts a huge immigration from Cuba to the States

Educational Impact The impact on the educational system is intrinsically interwoven with immigration patterns. As different waves of nationalities come through the education system, understanding of teaching English as a second language became imperative. Also, to help establish order and discipline in the school system, the educators would have to lead the fight of tolerance and understanding of others. Another way immigration would impact education is through new ideas and ways of thinking. New ideas about education and best practices of teaching would come with the new residence.

Why Immigrate? There are may reasons people choose to immigrate to another country. Here are a few: Famine – ex: Irish after potato famine War – ex: Jewish during/after WW2 Intolerance – ex: Scottish fleeing religious intolerance Poverty – ex: Eastern and Southern Europeans Pay off debt – ex: Indentured servants Asylum – ex: child refugees during times of war Persecution – ex: Lebanese Christians Religious Freedom – ex: Pilgrims Adventure - ex: Explorers, homesteaders

Immigration Struggles Some of the struggles people faced when they got to the ‘new world’ were harsh and unwelcoming. Here are a few: Unfair wages Unfair working conditions Bigotry Laws prohibiting their freedoms Unwarranted suspicion Lack of affordable housing Unfair treatment

My Ethnic Identity Racial: Scottish, Irish, English, German, Native American Cultural: Small town, traditional, conservative Religious Baptist, Four Square, Assembly of God – Pentecostal Language: English (my grandparents spoke a few words in Irish, Scottish and Cherokee – but that has been lost)

Conclusion With so many cultures that have intertwined throughout the history of our country, the USA can truly be called a melting pot. Also, when it comes to discrimination, everyone has some cross-cultural identity and should therefore be more tolerant of others.
