TRANS-NATIONAL AMERICA
Trans-National America is failure of the “melting pot.”Refered as a place where different people are mixed together. According to Bourne, Americans at the time trying to assimilate the immigrants cultures into their own. Moreover, this people came over this country not to be part of Native American cultures and adopt all it ways, but in Search of freedom and better job opportunities. Some escape from the chaos and the slavery of the old world.
My understanding about this passage, is that America would not be America without all of these ethnic groups. Is how this country made of immigrants, forming the most wonderful multicultural society where everybody have different behavior, language,beliefs and needs. Also, the immense economic contributions that these immigrants gives to this country. Even though, sometimes people have been treated as slave in this country, I believe that most of them found the freedom that they never had.
I chose this article because I believe that everybody have the right to decide what to do with their life and how to live better. Immigrate to another nations sometimes is the best choice for some people, where they can have better opportunities for them and their family. Unfortunately, some of our countries can not offer too much due to the poor economy and lack of knowledge. That is the consequence of delinquents and crimes etc.
