Immigration

I think it being a nation of Immigrants means that literally the whole nation is made up of immigrants. The United States used to be called “a melting pot” because of all of the immigrants. I think that is would be a really hard thing to immigrate somewhere because you would have to pack up everything that you could and just leave the rest behind. This must have been really hard to do in the late 19^th century because people came to America not having a job or anything there just hoping to get one and have a better life. In my opinion it would take a really brave person to do this.

            These traits of all of the different immigrants and there cultures is really a good thing. It allows the people in America to get a taste of cultures from all around the world. I very connected to my ancestors because they were in the same business that my dad is in today. Watching this film has allowed me to understand what immigrating to America was like.
