Come on and let me in, immigration man Can I cross the line and pray Take your fingers from the tray Let me in, irritation man I won't toe your line today I can't see it anyway IMMIGRATION TO THE UNITED STATES PRESENTATION
What is the United States? It is the land of second chances…
God how I hate “the man” Europe and Asia were the lands of n o chance… In Europe and Asia you Work for the man. If the U.S.was the land of second chances…. then
Dude we are the animals moooooooo “The man’s ugly kid” Yeah, ya think they get some animals ta do this Dude, this is hard work THE “MAN” Barge haulers on the Volga by Repin (Russia)
I’m the “man” and you’re not. I own the land, and you don’t I’m rich and you’re not!!! Economic opportunity and advancement!!!! Because in Europe and Asia you work for the “man”!!!
Homestead Act 1862 Yea, but there’s nothing out here…. I could have told you that %#@^)*^!!! Well, good luck with that…. We are basically giving away the land for FREE!!!
Another reason to come here was to… Worship “God” in your own way…and not be hassled by the “man”.
Yet another reason to come here was to… The Irish Potato Famine killed over 1,000,000 people EAT!!! Come to America McBabe there’s plenty to eat here!!! OK!!! KIDS PACK YA BAGS, WE’RE LEAVING THIS McDUMP
People come to this country in…. In waves dude, in waves.
From the beginning to around the 1860s-ish The first wave of immigration…(old) Where did they come from? North western Europe When?
You guys remember global 10, and how there was No Germany until otto71, I mean 1871? Also, real quick…did you know that my great-grandson is your history teacher? That is why YOU people Talk like me… Germany…ish Places Like IRELAND England
Second wave of immigration…(new) Central + South +Eastern Europe, and Asia Where did they come from? When? Late 1800s to early 1900s
Ya see there is no “real” Poland at this point gotta wait till 1918 PeopleofPolish descent Italy PLACES LIKE Greece
U call dis vinter? dis is nutin yes? Russia
China +Japan Bringin’ some weird stuff to the west coast… What the heck is that?!!!!? …stuff that “regular” America is NOT ready for Chinese symbol for dragon
‘cause that’s where the factory jobs are!!! And they tend to “congregate” in the same areas In eastern or western coast cities!!! So where do these “new” people settle?
We’re gonna settle in the south side or as “we” call it southie Meanwhile in Boston… We settled in the north side of Boston
It happened here in the Buff to.
Can you guess where? Can you guess where? Can you guess where?
Just like freshman in highschool!!! Every “group“ that has arrived here has had to “pay a price”… What is the price that immigrant groups have to pay?
The rumor of Immigrants taking “our” jobs….so you don’t hire them WOW!!! FOR REAL? Didn’t “we” build “your/our” stupid railroad?
Stupid, Boris,Greenhrons, Guineas ,Polacks… “’merica” all the way!!! Tear them down by using stereotypes, ethnic slurs, discrimination and not remembering where you or your people came from…{pick two for your sheet} I think I’ll create a political party called the KNOW NOTHINGS Immigrants….are dirty, stupid,ugly, different, and will never “fit in”
Let me show you how we “delt” with them… The are going to ruin ‘merica
Seriously… Frankenstein?…..
Hey!!! Christopher watch this!!! Yeah this is how “we” McParty Go get’em Dad!!!
Hey…um I just want to point out here that you or say your family were immigrants, I’m just sayin’
CHINESE EXCLUSION ACT (1882) no more Chinese Looks like we’re staying in Japan The US government has on several occasions tried to slow immigration or stop it all together. BELIEF THAT FOREIGN-BORN PERSONS THREATEN THE MAJORITY CULTURE AND SHOULD BE BANNED. Wait… what? NATIVISM: GENTLEMEN’S AGREEMENT (no more Japanese)
Eventually the “price” is paid and the group becomes part of the “melting pot theory or mixed salad theory” MELTING POT THEORY: Where people who come to this country “throw” off their “old ways” and become part of an American culture. MIXED SALAD THEORY: Where people who come to this country DO NOT “throw” off their “old ways” but add an element of diversity to an already diverse culture.
Me too, Paddy me to… I love our new home laddy
