Natives & Immigrants

Immigrants are highly marginalize in these years, and they were also being marginalized those years from natives citizens because they disrupts the culture of their territory. Moreover, we must said that immigrants were fundamental during the development of England because immigrants contributed with their culture. At the same time, they also pushed natives to fight and search their own identity as a civilization.
England lived many fights, and most of the natives where descendants of previous immigrants but with a difference, that they respect each other and were used to their peace style of live.

So, as we know immigrants contribute with their culture in many ways like language customs, lifestyles and more. But many times they try to introduce or impose what they are which was the case in england, where different types of immigrants tried to control the Island and their people.
After saying this, I do believe that immigrants in some cases contribute in the construction and the search of a culture and a society, which was the case of many civilization which were invading england. But, at the same time were others which only contribute with deaths and power struggles.

  1. Francisca,

    I liked the way you started your post, making a comparison between today’s immigrants and those who came to the UK. You pointed out the importance of immigrant in the formation of a country, which leads me to think that you are showing a high understanding about the complexity in the formation of each country.

    You also point out another issue; the importance of immigrants in the formation of an identity as common natives of a land.

    You developed you ideas clearly and it was easy to understand your viewpoint.

    Well organized writing.

    Great job!
