In this essay I talked about the idea of The American Dream and the reasons why many immigrants came and are still coming to this country (The United States). I decided first explain What is the american dream according to americans ( I look for information from wikipedia) and I explained it as much as I could and i decided to first explain what it was because that’s what many people from other countries think they are going to get when they come to this country. I know about it because I’m an immigrant and I’m the child of an immigrant and been around immigrants or people who want to come to this country and I know how they think when the conversation is about immigrating to the USA. They think that coming here is the end of the journey and everything is going to be perfect after that but it’s not true. I also wanted to explain to Americans who think that immigrants come to this country to basically take over or destroy it, that the majority of reasons why an immigrant comes to this country is to prosper, to give their kids a better life, to get a better education, better jobs or simply to stay safe. In this essay I tried to explain both sides (Americans and Immigrants) my perspective of the situation by looking for information, opinions and analysis throughout the internet and personal experience.
