My ex wife's grandfather (irish) was showing me pictures a few years ago of his old housing projects. The world famous queens bridge houses, queens ny. It was all irish and italian immigrants on welfare. Of course they finally got accepted as equal whites and were able to avoid redlining to get up out of there... but they had to start at the segregated bottom everybody else got stuck in for a while. Shit changed once whites became a minority in nyc tho. Now everybody is getting up out of there. Nobody stuck anymore. Im rambling, but i just assumed most immigrants had to start from the bottom. I dont have much experience in all this as im puerto rican descent. Entire different problem. Citizens that get treated as [illegal] immigrants no matter what we look like or do. |

That was 100-150 years ago. Today legal immigration is not as simple, which is why so many try immigrating illegally. ;-) There are stipulations for persecution in their home country and things of that nature as well. As a whole, the new host country does not want to be bringing in new citizens that cannot contribute to their society. This is not a United States thing, this is a whole world thing. Think about it logically. Why would you take a guest in your home that eats your food but won't even help clean up the kitchen? |
^i agree
I was just trying to figure this out. Like i said my fam aint immigrants, we had a whole different struggle. We dont know much about all that immigration stuff. Them pics he showed me were from the 1950's i believe. |
