Oral spaces and exchanges

SPACES AND EXCHANGES

intro:

Hello ! Today I’m going to talk about the notion << Spaces and exchanges >> and more precisely about the US immigration. We can easily define this notion:

Spaces and exchanges deal with the geographical and symbolic areas that all societies occupy, but I am going to focus more on the interactions between men and different societies through the immigration, this subject of US immigration corresponds perfectly to this definition.

Indeed we will interest in humans interactions with a country: United states (US). So we can ask us ‘’ For what reasons and how do people decide to immigrate to United States ? ‘’

To answer at this question, we will study in a first part the reasons of the immigrants. Next, we will see differents ways used by immigrants to go in the heart of North America.

I - REASONS OF THE IMMIGRANTS

Firstly, we can say that America is a target of immigration. A lot of persons decides every days, every months and every years to go in United States. but why ? We can explain that with 2 points: The American dream and the situation of the immigrants in their countries.

In a first time, We saw a video which defines perfectly the American Dream: That is a world dream.The American Dream is the ideal that the government should protect each person's opportunity to have their own idea of happiness. ‘’ A perfect dream ‘’

Moreover, They define in the video America like a nation of immigrants, a special place, a magnificent country. there are no limits. In America, immigrants will feel good in their new country.

In a second time, people decide to immigrate because they can’t have a decent life in their native country. We understood that in our first document immigration of the 19th mid century. people have to leave for differents reasons:

From Ireland (one third),because there was a massive famine, from Germany, Germans wanted to buy some farms and from Asia persons were interested in the gold rush. We also can’t forget religious war and persecutions with the Pilgrims or in a recent Time inhabitants of thé modèle East.

In this first part, we have seen why people decided to go to United States

II - DIFFERENTS WAYS USED BY PERSONS TO GO IN US

Secondly, I think that is important to talk about differents ways used by immigrants to cross in America. Sadly the most important way of immigration is illegal.

Stowaways paid smugglers to pass in the country it is very dangerous because if the police get them, the justice will be hard and they will go back in their country. We saw an example of smuggler with Anna in the document ‘’ why the caged birds sings ‘’ who try to earn money for her family.

Moreover, the most courageous immigrants try to go in United States without help by walking in the mexican desert for exemple. In a video which presents the Donald Trump's Wall, we have seen a group of 4 persons walking in the river.

these people are ready for everything in search of a better life but there is a high death rate. Everyday immigrants die to achieve their dreams. This situation has to stop.
