Personal Narrative:
Hi my names Juliffer and just like many others I am also an immigrant in this country. I was born in Manado, Indonesia on the 25th of July. My parents are from Indonesia to but just like many others here my family and I have also struggled. At first it was hard to adapt to the culture here because where I'm from everyone is so friendly compared to over here you are not quite treated the same. Coming to america all my family wanted was a better way of life and an opportunity for us to get a good education. And even though my parents have struggled in the beginning they fought through it and is just thankful for eveything. Nothing in life comes easy but as you all know in order for you to want something you got to work for it. It's just the same as immigrants because some have been living here for more than ten years including me. Most people when coming here seek for an opportunity or a better way of life. People face struggles everyday. They constantly get made fun of and are often discriminated just because there of different race. Immigration is around us. The whole USA is made of immigrants, I mean we had to start somewhere. We seek for opportunity for a change for the better. I think that everyone should just stop judging people and just be thankful for what the people of this country has done. Without immigrants I or my parents wouldnt even be here because we had to start somewhere.

Political cartoon
In the political cartoon its showing where we basically started. The cartoon in itself shows that we basically all stated as immigrants. We were not the first ones on this land. The people that were actually living on that land at the time was the native americans. Technically we didnt own it until later on. But this cartoon shows alot that everytime we come to a country we would have to show our proof of ID and proof of identification. personally for me this cartoon makes sense at the fact that people just have to say something whether where there from or how they got here. I think we as people should treat others equally because at the end of the day we are people. So this cartoon saying that we come from all over and we have had to start somewhere. Plus most of our nation our immigrants and immgrants including myself have worked hard to get here. Most of us come for a better education or a better way of life. Immigration is all over and the cartoon shows that we have had to start somewhere right.
