Welcome!
My name is Patrick and I'm going to be talking about some of the major factors surrounding immigration. To begin, I am going to point out the four main components. 1. The Push - What drives people out of their homeland? 2. The Pull - What brings them to a given country? 3. The Journey - What is their migratory journey like? What mode of transportation is involved? Is it voluntary or by force? 4. The Assimilation/Acculturation - What's their experience after they've arrived to their new country? In this blog I will be covering both stories and information relating to what it is truly like for individuals as well as families who leave home to start a new life in a new country both in modern times as well as throughout history. Some of the information covered will be studying both the perspectives of the immigrants as well as the current citizens in that country. ( (Source) )
