Héctor’s last name’s history is interesting to learn about. How the last name “Porrata” was purchased, by the wealthy, and added “Doria” to distinguish themselves from the slaves. I agree with his opinion about the Arizona Immigration Law. Laws that are set in the US should be both respected and followed, so I agree with his opinion of deporting illegal immigrants back to their countries. His Italian Immigration history was interesting to learn about as well. It was interesting how the Italiand didn’t plan to stay long, but at the end, they stayed in the US.
Jan Paul’s opinion about illegal immigrants was different from mine, so I found it interesting to learn about someone elses different point of view on illegal immigration, and learn why they think that way. I like the way Jan Paul wrote his journal entry, it was very detailed and showed what German immigrants went through be fore and after arriving to the US. In the history of German immigration, I don’t think immigrants should be discriminated agains because of the religion they practicad, because everyone has the right to practice their beliefs and religion.
Stephanie’s family history was interesting to learn about, and how she found out a lot of information about how her family goes way back. Stephanie’s opinion about illegal immigration was slightly different from mine. I know that illegal immigrants are treated unfairly, but they are only treated unfairly because they came to the US illegaly, and I relieve that if a country has a set of laws, they should be followed and respected. If an immigrant doesn’t want to be treated unfairly, they should get their UZ citizenship papers in order to be treated fairly and with the respect they deserve; because if they don’t respect laws, why should they expect the same respect back? On Italian immigration history, it was good to learn about how the Italians started with low-paying jobs and in filthy living conditions, and progressed to getting jobs with higher pay, and they’re homestyle.
Elsa’s family store is interesting. I like how she has different heritage that came from different countries. Her father coming from Ecuador is very interesting, and also how she is mixed with Italian heritage and from Norway, how she is ethnically diverse. I agree with her immigration blog post. I think that the US government is doing well in giving the DMV tests in many different languages, because not all immigrants know how to speak English. I also like the way Elsa writes in her journal entry, it was very detailed and you could imagine what the Japanese immigrants had to go through. Also, how the Japanese were very discriminated and didn’t have much success when they first arrived to Hawaii, but were able stu surpass that and make a better life for themselves in the US.
