dc.description.abstractThe Hispanic population in the US is increasing, and much of that is due to Latino immigrants coming from Mexico, Central America, and South America. Despite such an increasing population, US understanding of immigration is very limited, and the process is often incomprehensible. This essay offers an in-depth explanation of the immigration process, both legal and illegal, of many Hispanics into the US. It also offers a personal perspective of Latinos who have immigrated to the US and their experiences of being immigrants in a foreign country. Finally, this essay offers a critical examination of current immigration practices and aims to encourage a more open perspective on immigration and the benefits immigration brings to the US. For the purposes of this essay, the terms “Latino” and “Hispanic” are used interchangeably, referring to individuals who speak Spanish and are of Latin American origins (i.e. from any of the aforementioned regions). This essay was written in Dr. Andrew DeMil’s SPA 301 class.en_US
