Just as the immigrants who arrived before them, refugees of war and economic hardship arrived in America seeking a new life. Many of these refugees faced a culture shock that differed from those who arrived during the 18th and 19th centuries. In this assignment, you take on the role of a reporter covering the cultural changes these refugees had to deal with when they escaped war and economic hardship to arrive on American soil.

· Select an immigrant group fleeing war or economic hardship and arriving in America. Imagine you are a reporter assigned to cover the group's story. Describe the interviews you might perform and include those and any images to support the interviews in your report.

· Choose from:

· Koreans

· Vietnamese

· Hmong

· Indians

· Arabs from the Middle East or Northern Africa

· Hondurans

· Guatemalans

· Salvadorans

· Prepare for your interview:

· Describe what you already know about the group's experiences and culture

· List five or six informed and specific questions about the cultural differences they experienced upon arrival

· Prepare the report:

· The report should have a minimum of 4 well-developed paragraphs and include at least 2 images

· The first paragraph should describe the place of origin and the refugee's culture before their arrival here.

· The following 2 to 5 paragraphs should include the questions you asked and the answers you received during the interview.

· The final paragraph should include a discussion of your impressions of the group's refugee experience.

Things to remember:

· Note that you will be creating a minimum of four well-developed paragraphs. These should consist of no less than 6 sentences.

· You need to include two images that support your magazine or newspaper report.

· Research is needed to give your interview historical accuracy. Avoid low-quality websites.

· This assignment is not a formal essay and should read like an article you might see in a newspaper, magazine, or on the internet.

· Aim for multiple paragraphs that flow easily from one to the next.

· Proofread before submitting.

Statements based on historical facts need to be referenced. Your source material must be academically credible and validated using in-text citations and references in APA format.
