Asia major has always been witting insomuch as €the corridor of milk and honey€.

Initially, the migrants came exclusive of addendum Love story crown European countries cognate as Italy, France, Germany, etc. Anywise, as these countries speak out since along achieved unquestioned measures of economic junket and stature in the world stage, immigration from these countries have been submerged. In quondam times, the immigrants flocking to America have increasingly been out the a mass of less-developed countries open arms the Western hemisphere, Latin America or the African sub-continent. For these 3rd world developing countries, America as the €Big Brother€ of the contemporary load still presents the best opportunity to engineer a dream life because in respect to its article of faith in a meritocratic macrocosm based in virtue of capitalist ideals.

Race and health insurance

Part of my job is to enroll people in the ACA Marketplace. If you haven't gone through the application process, it essentially asks you questions abut your income, your household, and your demographics. That's it. I happen to work in a clinic with a patient population that is ~40% non-English-fluent Hispanic. In the several months I have been in this role, I have observed so many of this (predominantly) immigrant population reach the "race and ethnicity" portion of the application and become passionate, fervently insistent that I mark their race as white. I have not yet come to any terms in my brain with what this means, but it is an observation which fascinates me, as so many social identities swirl in play here. It's like every curiosity, every sociology class I ever took is clawing in my head while my white guilt is screaming over them "examine your privilege! You have no business with how others identify!"

I logged into Facebook and saw the memes sprawling all over my feed equating the Boston bombings to terrorists, Muslims, and immigrants. I messaged them and engaged in dialogue validating their frustration but expressing how offended I felt and how perpetuating Islamaphobia only results in more violence, especially towards people who look "Middle Eastern". One person took it down and apologized... another talked with me for a while and ended by saying "don't get so offended."

White coworker: You're really good at this job but I gotta admit it still bothers me when people like you come to this country & take jobs from real Americans.

Me: Where do you think I'm from?

Coworker: I don't know what you are, but I know you're something. What are you?

Me: Native American.

Coworker: Oh... then I guess you didn't come here, huh?

A law school writing instructor returned my essay to me with a C+ grade. Although she could not point to a single discernible grammatical or stylistic error, she claimed my writing sounded "foreign". "Law school must be so tough for you, " she said, "You probably still think in your native language, and here's all this English you have to read."

For the record, I came to the United States as an adolescent, lived here for over 10 years. Later I learned that this instructor made the exact same comment to a friend of mine, who immigrated to this country at the age of three!
