Can someone please right me an essay in which you compare how immigrants change as a result of their experiences in the U.S. And how they have changed or impact our country. Support your discussion with evidence from the texts (Of Plymouth Plantation, Mother Tongue, and Blaxicans). Urgent!!! I need it done before 4 o'clock today I'll give brainiest and 110 points
Answer and Explanation:
Immigration is the term that refers to the entry of individuals in a country that is not their home country and to settle there and reside permanently or temporarily.
Immigration is a controversial topic in the USA, due to the constant and growing number of immigrants. Many people believe that immigrants cause problems they take resources from local citizens, they do not respect local culture, among other losses. However, this is far from being true, since immigrants have, for the most part, a very positive impact on the country.
First of all we must emphasize that the USA was formed by immigrants. The first colonizers were European immigrants who suffered a lot in the new environment to which they submitted, but who were resilient and allowed themselves to grow in America. Nevertheless, we can confirm that one of the successes of the American colonies was the vast number of immigrants that boosted the trade and enriched the country in a cultural way. Currently, we can say that immigrants continue to enrich the country with their cultures and ethnicities, in addition to being people who pay their taxes and are active members of their communities.
Unfortunately, many people ignore these facts and end up making immigrants' lives more difficult than they should be, being prejudiced, xenophobic, pretending they don't understand them and even imposing stereotypes and incorrect concepts on them.

To whom does Jefferson refer in this excerpt?
A) the British Parliament
B) the citizens of Great Britain
C) the British military
D) the King of Great Britain
Answer:
B) the citizens of Great Britain
Explanation:
Declaration of Independence, in U.S. history, document that was approved by the Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, and that announced the separation of 13 North American British colonies from Great Britain. It explained why the Congress on July 2 “unanimously” by the votes of 12 colonies (with New York abstaining) had resolved that “these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be Free and Independent States.” Accordingly, the day on which final separation was officially voted was July 2, although the 4th, the day on which the Declaration of Independence was adopted, has always been celebrated in the United States as the great national holiday—the Fourth of July, or Independence Day.

Jane bought three sheets
of poster board and a pack of markers. Denise
bought two packs of construction paper and a
tube of glue. Who spent more? How much more?
Ef Jane buys two more sheets of poster board, how
much does she spend all together?
MR? Reasoning lulene has $25 to make post
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
Here is the complete question:
a. Jane bought three sheets of poster board and a pack of markers. Denise bought two packs of construction paper and a tube of glue. Who spent more? How much more?
b. If Jane buys two more sheets of poster board, how much does she spend all together?
c. Julene has $25 to make poster. She buys 2 packs of marker, 1 pack of construction paper, two tubes of glue and a roll of tape. How many sheets of poster board can she buy with the money she has left?
Poster board = $1.29/sheet
Markers = $4.50/pack
Tape = $1.99/roll
Glue = $2.39/tube
Construction paper = $3.79/pack
a. For Jane:
3 × poster board = 3 × $1.29 = $3.87
1 × pack of markers = 1 × $4.50 = $4.50
Total = $3.87 + $4.50 = $8.37
For Denise:
2×construction paper=2 × $3.79= $7.58
1 × glue = 1 × $2.39 = $2.39
Total = $7.58 + $2.39 = $9.97
From the analysis above, we can see that Denise spends ($9.97 - $8.37) = $1.60 more.
b. Total amount spent already by Jane in question a = $8.37
If Jane buys two more sheets of poster board, this will be:
= 2 × $1.29 = $2.58
Total amount spent = $8.37 + $2.58
= $10.95
c. Amount with Julene = $25
She bought:
2 packs of marker= 2×$4.50 = $9.00
1 pack of construction paper = $3.79
two tubes of glue = 2 × $2.39 = $4.78
1 roll of tape = 1 × $1.99 = $1.99
Total amount spent:
= $9.0 + $3.79 + $4.78 + $1.99
= $19.56
The amount that'll be left with her will be:
= $25 - $19.56
= $5.44
To calculate the amount of sheets of poster board that can she buy with the money she has left, we divide $5.44 by $1.29. This will be:
= $5.44/$1.29
= 4.2
= 4 approximately
She can buy 4 sheet of poster board

Well from my experience as a POC, you'd be surprised by how many people are brainwashed into feeling the need to discriminate against others based on their race. Very few of them are willing to listen and actually educate themselves. It is possible that you may change their mind and help them grow as a person but there still will be a majority of racists that choose to be ignorant.

In Longfellow’s poem "The Village Blacksmith," Longfellow never gives a name to the blacksmith. By not naming the blacksmith, Longfellow makes him universal. This means the blacksmith can represent anyone in America who is a honest, hardworking member of the community. Who is someone you believe is like the village blacksmith?
In your answer make sure you have at least five sentences and cite at least two lines from the poem with page numbers that you would use to describe the person you believe is like the village blacksmith.
Answer:
My dad is like the village blacksmith.
The first and second verse of the poem, the writer describes the physical attributes of the blacksmith.
Then in verse 3, the blacksmith's innate qualities of consistency, and hard work are unravelled.
This is very typical of my dad who though is a farmer never slips up on his work and always keeps his promise.
Another quality of the blacksmith that I see in my dad is found in verse 5. It reads that the blacksmith sits amongst the boys on Sunday, connoting that he is a Christian.
My dad, same as the blacksmith not only goes to church on Sunday. He prays and teaches us to do the same.
He is quite inclined towards God. I guess it's because much like the blacksmith who from steel forges various kinds of tools and shapes objects, He recognises that many of the things around us too were "forged" by a Superior Blacksmith.
Cheers!

Are celebrities good or bad role models? Give 3 reasons on why or why not
Answer:
Celebs are people we look up to but more often than good they are bad role models
Explanation:
*Many rappers are addicted to drugs and being famous and in the spotlight can drive them to various states like anxiety and depression. They may be trying to get off of drugs but people romanticize the drug use. However, some rappers encourage the drugand substance abuse to younger fans.
*Many celebs have the money to get plastic surgery and fix their insecuritites if they like and that is ok. You can change the body you came in and be confident. However when you lie about your procedures and go on instagram and advertise tummy shakes this is a very unhealthy thing for little girls who look up to you. Many celebs lie about their bodies and this causes bad body image.
*Celebs don't always treat people the best because they think they are all that and also can encourage laziness. This is not a good example for teens. People should want to help better humanity instead of being famous.
