Katherine Senechal Professor Infranco History 110 27 January 2016 Revolutionary Summer Revolutionary Summer by Joseph J. Ellis begins in the spring of 1776, a year into the fighting between Britain and the colonies. The battle at Bunker Hill had resulted in the death of more than 1,000 British soldiers and American deaths in the hundreds. After the British raided several New England towns, American soldiers led by Benedict Arnold trudged through the wilderness of Maine in winter, “suffered a crushing defeating in the attempt to capture the British stronghold at Quebec” (Ellis, 2013, p.4). The leader of the radical party in the Continental Congress was John Adams. Many of his colleagues found him obnoxious.
In Australia, refugees and asylum seekers are treated like the enemy in a war: the target of a highly resourced, military-led “deterrence” strategy complete with arbitrary detainment, detention camps, guards to terrorise them, forced deportations and the violent suppression of those who protest. Australia is failing to meet the standards required when regarding the treatment of asylum seekers. It is fact that asylum seekers make up less than 3% of Australia’s annual immigration yet the idea is being distorted to that of which they will overpopulate a country that prides itself on being a multicultural society. I want to shed light on the misconception that asylum seekers are not ‘legal’ when in actual fact it is a human right to seek freedom.
Under the traditional law, asylum was recognised as the right of the state to be conferred, in its discretion, and individual could only request for it and if granted enjoy it. Unfortunately, all the efforts to ensure right of asylum to every person fearing persecution have been forestalled by states. In the last few years U.S.A, Australia, Germany, France and other European countries to name a few, are increasingly putting into practice restrictive asylum policies in order to deter and to prevent asylum-seekers from seeking refuge in their territory.
Imagine if you were born into a country filled with poverty, fear, anxiety, despair and sorrow. The pain and suffering you would go through every day was so violent that you and your family had given up on all measures of hope. Every day you would fear persecution and you couldn’t even feel safe in the comfort of your own home. But what if there was a sliver of hope of escaping this drama occurring in your homeland by leaving by boat. All this drama gone in a flash, wouldn’t you want to try?

Preamble: When in the course life of events, everything going on with the president of the united states wanting to take away rights from immigrants for example the Daca, he wanted to take away something good for those who weren't born here not only that but he wants send immigrants back to mexico. Making them feel less. I believe this is more of racism coming from him towards the Mexicans.
Iḿ here in front of you today for many things, first and foremost because this is is graded, but also because I think this is important and I feel the need to answer this question, at least for myself. To me, anyone is American that believes in our country, because everyone in our country already believes in our country, we must accept everyone that wishs to be accepted by us and make sure that when freedom is needed, we are the land that has it, because like those pilgrims believed when they came here so long ago, we are the land of the un-wanted, but more importantly, the land of the free. All people, let alone immigrants have struggled, through different things at different times, to varying degrees, it’s what makes us human. It is against human nature to be self-less, but we are better than that, we are more than just automated responses, stringed together in DNA, we should, no we must be better than that. Extend a hand of friendship and
Dear fellow nasty women and bad hombres, America is one the greatest experiments in freedom and liberty history has ever known. We are a nation that was built on the minds and ideals of immigrants. Our Founding Fathers created America so that everyone could have a chance at "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness". Those are aspects of my country, I would never change because they are what make us unique. The glow of America casts a ripple of hope upon those who struggle.
I.Introduction One of the greatest controversies in modern day is illegal immigrants. There are an approximate 11.4 undocumented immigrants that live in our country today. Now with your new action in place, I think it’s a good thing. Mainly because it allows lasting illegal immigrants to stay here, it allows jobs to go to documented americans, and gives children hope for a better future ahead. II.
Currently, there are sixty-five million refugees worldwide, constituting the largest refugee crisis since World War II. Ongoing evacuee problems fueled by warfare and torment throughout the Middle East and Sub-Saharan Africa are the worst since 1939. The magnitude of refugees was highlighted in this summer’s Olympics where the “first ever refugee team participated at the games in Rio, representing not a country, but the 65 million people displaced (internally, or outside their country) by war and persecution” (Merelli). The European Union and United States denied the UN’s proposal to resettle 10% of the world’s refugees in an effort to tackle the world’s worst refugee problem.
Some countries are open and actively working to promote well-being through charity and acts to achieve justice. In opposition some countries are not willing to take on the responsibilities of letting displaced people into their borders. After seeing the lifestyle displaced people face each day the film encouraged me to do what I can to spread awareness about the unsteady world refugees face. I know that I would have a difficult time living like a displaced person and I cannot begin to image the fear, sadness, and struggles each day brings. Although, as an individual I do not feel I can achieve much impact, I do believe that sharing the messages presented in the film will bring greater understanding to others and from there a stronger force can be achieved.

Have you ever seen this picture? This picture is a lot more than a poetic protest on media. It is the reality. In the 21st century, the average cost of a human is $90 globally.
Anthony J. D 'Angelo. One thing is very clear: these few countries doing their best to help refugees can’t manage the refugee issue on their own. We need global cooperation. Therefore, the only solution is moving on to end the bloodbaths and poverty lakes while simultaneously accepting the humanitarian responsibility of taking in the refugees. Migration is a global issue.
