Log: Immigration, Race, and Oppression

Immigration, race and oppression are critical in the education of children. Among the main principles that need to be taught about immigration are immigration, the effects of immigration to the giving and receiving country, and the challenges immigrants face in the new countries. Contemporarily, immigration cases are high, especially in Europe and North America, due to increasing human crises such as hunger, wars, and political instability in their home countries. Apart from relocating to new countries due to human crises, immigrants immigrate to employment and better education. Their native countries are at risk of losing skilled human resources. To the countries receiving immigrants, they have to battle with an economic burden to meet the basic needs of the immigrants.

On the other hand, race denotes the classification of human beings based on their shared physical and social traits. Racism is a result of different race races. In American society, the race is pervasive. Many people are denied access to important social services such as education and health (Wilderman and Wang, 2017). In schools, it is common for black students to be suspended from schools than whites due to racism. Racism limits the opportunities of racial minority groups. They have less opportunity to excel in life, and some usually drop out of school. Oppression is the unfair treatment of certain members or groups in society. It is a result of differences that exists among the people.

Indeed, the cases of immigration have increasingly become high, and at the moment, immigration in itself is a crisis. Globally, many countries are experiencing political instabilities while others face the threat of terrorism. Consequently, terrorism and political instability are among the leading causes of immigration in different places. Also, while immigrants move in search of improved living conditions, they often meet numerous obstacles in foreign countries. The obstacles include continued marginalization from the native citizens. As highlighted, they have to strain to make ends meet or surrender to oppression in the new countries. The challenges immigrants face are similar to those faced by racial minorities. They are forced to live as second citizens even in the most democratic countries like the United States. In that state, accessing the basic services is difficult as provided. At that juncture, they automatically become the oppressed groups. In other words, the immigrants and individuals from racial minority groups are part of the oppressed groups.

Based on the discussion on the main principle, attention has to be directed towards securing a better life for the immigrants and racial minorities. It is essential that, after a series of suffering in their native countries, the immigrants should be protected from continued discrimination in the countries they seek asylum (Schmidt, 2019). That demands the respective governments to put in place measures that support the welfare of the immigrants. Lastly, everyone must resist racial discrimination to secure the wellness of everyone in society.
