How Can Immigrants Keep Their Own Culture In a New Country... or Can They? Many people go from one country to another, and one of the biggest problems immigrants face is maintaining their cultural identity. Many immigrants mustassimilate into a new culture. Considering that not a lot is done to assist immigrants in this respect, perhaps other countries shouldn't expect assimilation from immigrants. Maybe the culture of immigrants should be able to coexist with the culture of the country they are moving to. What does the government do for immigrants? In the 1960s, the United States government passed laws that made discrimination illegal. There have also been courtcases and movements to help immigrants flourish in the United States, botheconomically and socially. What are some ways immigrantstry to retain their cultural identity? One thing immigrants do is livein small immigrant communities to preservetheir culture, to surround oneself with their own culture, though many face hardships through their lives. Another thing that is in place is the proposed DREAM Act, which supports immigrant students to goreceive a higher education. METHOD SUPPORT What effects can the diversity of cultural identities have on society? One theorized effectof ethnic diversity cancan give a country a very bright future (Robert Putnam, political scientist at Harvard), while the other side says people will generally isolate themselves from foreign cultures and create a "turtle effect." EFFECTS What are the main things thatpose a challenge to immigrantspreserving their own culture? CHALLENGES SOURCES One major challenge immigrantsface is certain state laws thatsay illegal immigrants cannot attend a college or apply for studentloans there. Another major challenge immigrants face is the pressure of assimilating into the country and culture they moved to in order to economicallysurvive.
