Hello! I do not want you to write an essay for me by any means. I am just completely lost, without inspiration or direction. I am hoping for a few ideas to build from. It's for a composition class, so facts and figures are not important. You'll find the prompt below. Thank you!
A person’s view of America is substantially influenced by how one got here—by choice or by force—and how well one has integrated into the dominant culture. Immigrants choosing to come to the United States have historically integrated faster and fared better than those forced to become Americans.
–Keith Phillips Out of Ashes
Write a well-organized and well-developed essay in which you do the following:
● Describe with examples the differences between two specific ethnic groups with regard to their historical experience in America. Indicate the positive and negative experiences of that population’s integration into American society.
● Indicate the degree to which you feel an individual’s successful contribution to America and enjoyment of American opportunities depends on that person’s race and ethnic experience.
