Yes. My opinion is that third world immigration is a threat to ``America’s way of life”.

An increase of the budget is linked to the fact that basic education is compulsory in the United ...

The United States has always been a nation of immigrants, but not all of them have been welcomed or received the same opportunities for a better life. The difference in treatment is explained by the concept of whiteness, which has evolved since colonial days.

During the nineteenth century immigrants from Eastern and Southern Europe began to make their way to American industrial cities such as Chicago. While these immigrants fared much better than the African slaves who ...

Abstract

Chinese entrepreneurship is known to be influenced by historically traditional and cultural characteristics. The concept of Chinese businesses that the family patriarch critically manages them continues to hold true, although in the modern world as opposed to two decades ago, it has slowly changed.

The tradition of a Chinese family-run business retains its discernible mark in worldwide business.

As motivated as they may be maintaining past practices for the sake of ...

In the pre-colonial era and shortly after the colonial period, border crossing by communities was a common phenomenon and occurrence.

To that end, it takes me much more direct investigation and conscious exploration of American life and how it is lived to be cognizant of the systemic inequalities that occur in this nation.
