The Issue of Immigration
LER 100--Activity #5
The Issue of Immigration
This an individual activity. The activity will be a reaction paper to a video we will see in class today titled “30 Days—Immigration”.
After watching the video, you will have a few days to write a 2-page double-spaced paper addressing the question:
How does Morgan Spurlock’s video “30 Days—Immigration” demonstrate the difficult issues that are part of the debate over how to deal with undocumented immigration in the U.S.?
Your paper will be graded on the degree to which you identify and discuss the issues which make the problem of undocumented immigration a complex and difficult problem to resolve. It is not necessary to do any additional research to find statistics or evidence to answer the question. Just focus on the human, social, and legal issues raised in the film. Like other activities, this paper will be worth 30 points.
If you want to refer to the film you can find it online at https://vimeo.com/11155073
Please submit your paper via dropbox by 11:59 pm, Tuesday December 5. Late papers will not be accepted.
