'' IMMIGRANTS''

The word '' IMMIGRANTS'' to me is kind of hard because a lot of people in U.S.A.
think that we come here to take away theirs jobs for less money.

Some people think that we are terrorist, that we just want to destroy what they have.
The word ''IMMIGRANTS'' is a fancy word because the racists use more the word
'' WET BACK ''. In my experience, some people have called me this,
but they don't know us so they stereotype us.
Yes we are all immigrants in some way.

Thats what makes us different.We don't think and act the same.
We are all humans. We have a brain. We have a heart.
Every person is responsible for they own actions.

To be an immigrant is very hard. First when you come over here, it is a new country with a new language, new food, new traditions.
So imagine how hard it is when your children get sick and you are afraid to take them to the hospital because you are an immigrant.

If you don't speak English, they treat you like DIRT!!!!!.
We came here to have a better life for us and for our kids.
That's why we left our own country, our family and our traditions.
We are people with hopes and dreams. Not only ''IMMIGRANTS''.

I'm so sorry to hear that I understand how you feel. When i go out of state i feel so different cause i don't speak there language. Just always remember its not whats on the outside that counts it the inside. So don't let NO ONE make you feel different or not welcomed cause to me every ones the same no matter different skin color or race
