Illegal Immigrants In Chicago

Chicago is described as a “hog slaughtering backwater” and having streets “oozing a fragrant muck of of horse manure, mud, and garbage.” Chicago without the fair is depicted as being almost inhabitable, nearly toxic to all of the citizens there. From this arises the reputation Chicago gets as a filthy hick town with no redeeming qualities, however from this reputation derives the need for a fair, creating good from bad. While the quality of Chicago has not considerably increased, the fair is described as “Chicago's pride” and as “great”. The positivity of the fair is contrasted with the lackluster quality of the surrounding areas of Chicago.

I adored the way that the creator really took after genuine individuals sharing the hardships and in addition their determination attempting to improve lives for themselves and future eras.

I like how the creator made it a story alongside information about what it was like during the

There are several ways that social workers, settlement houses, or activism organizations help Mexican immigrants and Mexicans- Americans in Chicago. Chicago's economy was based on the railroad, steel, sugar beet, and meatpacking industries. Workers were needed to replace employees on strike or men fighting overseas during World War I. Business leaders sent representatives to the Southwest to hire Mexican immigrants and transport them north. These recruiters, paid for the new workers' railroad fees and meals on the trip to Chicago but their first paychecks would be docked a percentage until the money was compensated. Social workers continued to help Mexicans by not only giving them jobs but from keeping them for being deported back.

Los Angeles, California is home to nearly ten percent of the United States immigrant population. After Donald Trump became the president of the United States many immigrant communities in Los Angeles became more concerned about their future. On may 8th 2017 in the local education section of the Los Angeles times the article “What it’s like to be a teen in L.A. with a parent in the U.S. Illegally” by Sonali Kohli was presented. In this article, she elaborates how the immigrant communities in Los Angeles are continuing to be marginalized, but this misfortune has expanded to the sons and daughters of immigrant parents (Kohli, 2017). Kohli focuses her article in three different High School students from near neighborhoods of inner LA: Maria Garcia, Lupe, and Daniel Garcia.

New York is America’s “quintessential immigrant city, with a long history of ethnic succession and immigrant inclusion” (Foner 2007 pg. 1001). Since 1900, 10%, or more, of America’s foreign-born population has lived in New York City. In the late 19th and early 20th century, the city served as the major entry place for Southern and Eastern European immigrants. Moreover, New York has been dramatically changed, and dramatically benefited, by massive immigration inflows in the past few decades. Immigration was a crucial factor in New York’s recovery from the devastating financial crisis of 1975.

When a person fail to appear in court, a judge can issue a bench warrant for their arrest. With the bench warrant law enforcement can make an arrest and take the person into custody anytime. Law enforcement can also actively seek to execute the warrant at a person home or work place. Unfortunately, if they are released with a citation, fingerprints or photo (mugshot) are not taken. However, everyone that’s booked/arrested into county jail has there photo (mugshot) taken, and fingerprints.

People rather have their safety and security taken away in order to keep their freedom. For instance, many Mexican immigrants try so hard to reach the American Dream, so they are willing to risk their lives to obtain that freedom and opportunity for education. They walk through the burning hot deserts, go through dehydration for many days, and even more hardships in order to leave their problems in Mexico and get a fresh new start at life. Even when in America, illegal Mexican immigrants face every day worrying whether they will be deported and lose their chance at having the American Dream. They sacrifice themselves and all their possessions back at Mexico just to come to America in order to obtain the freedom that citizens get.

I don 't either agree with the current president of deporting everyone with or without criminal record. If they 're criminals, deport them, if they 're like most illegal immigrants who came here to seek out a better life, help them attain legal citizenship and become tax paying American like the rest of us. We can offer them a legal path and impose tax penalty for the years on them in order to help pay for their citizenship not only are they paying for the cost but now are legal citizens who can demand fair wages which alleviate the issues of cheap labor because now they have the legal right to do

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, before I deliver my words to you, I would like to say that it is a truly honor to be given the privilege to speak not only for my community, but for the Hispanic community as a whole. Once again, thank you for welcoming me to this meeting. As some of you may or may not know there has been an innumerable amount of controversy involving the Hispanic community in the past decade. As a representative of my community I would like to address our fears and concerns before you. Consequently, following former president Barack Obama the statistics pertaining to deportation of Hispanic immigrants have drastically increased.

Chicago was seen by outsiders as a land of opportunity the same way our founding fathers saw America as the land of new beginnings. Individuals all across the nation spoke of Chicago as having a “spirit” of it own and “tangible force” that was similar to the American dream (Larson 16). As people spoke so highly of Chicago and its technology, it still did not escape the criticism from other states about how the city would not be able to handle organizing a World’s fair. When the grounds of the World’s Fair were ere being prepared in Jackson Park, Chicago, the soil was too dense to build extravagant buildings, the architects in charge of creating the buildings for the World’s Fair were surprised with all the extra work needed in order for the foundations of the buildings to be sturdy (Larson

One night, during the cold winter, I walked along the side walk to reach the local store down the block. As I walked out, before I can realize it, I was dropping down onto the concrete while bullets swiftly passed me. I then began to run back home, but I wanted to keep running. Away from Chicago, away from the west side. Growing up in Chicago, it was easy to assume that there was nothing different beyond the blocks of my streets.

My life in Chicago made me who I am today determined to be greater than what the neighborhood I came from. My parents always made sure I was off the streets putting me in different programs such as Softball, Basketball,Football, Boys and Girls Club, and even the Lighthouse Youth Center. All of those programs helped build a man motivating me to not be only a follower but also a leader. The lighthouse Youth Center gave me my first job at fourteen my last year in Chicago which I thank them to this day for giving me the opportunity. As I transitioned to the South Suburbs my relationship with my parents started to get iffy as I started to have my own opinion.
