hello everyone. first of all i must say that regardless of the cold it is a beautiful day...a day we may have trouble enjoying because of our frozen pupils...but nonetheless a beautiful day.
I have read three articles for our assignment that i would link at the bottom of this page if i wasnt a complete dumbass with computers. im not entirely sure how to go about doing this so i will just take a whack at it.
Over the course of my various readings regarding the immigration debate, i found myself questioning many things that i believe and do not believe. When it comes to a largely publicized debate such as illegal immigration, i believe people truly need to examine each side of the argument instead of accepting only what they believe in as truth. Through the scheme of things, in the direct division of people through country and state borders, we manage to get lost in this rhelm of identity. We identify ourselves as the country we live in, or the state we are from. We divide ourselves into Mexicans, Americans, and Canadians, leaving out the most important group of all; that we are all humans. Regardless of where we are from we are all of the same race. We are all related in some way, we all feel, we all have the same intentions as our lives first begin; they simply change based on our environment and our circumstances. The division of life that takes place everyday is appauling and depressing. We are ALL americans, except we are from the united states part and they are from the mexican part, however more importantly we are all humans. This is why each of owes it to one another, to hear their story.
