Hello, 

From my personal perspective, I believe there shouldn't be a new border wall between Mexico and the United States. It would get Mexicans calmed and feel safe since at least they wouldn't feel more neglected than they already are. American's hate the most on Hispanics and stereotype us with Mexicans since they are the majority of Hispanic immigrants. Drug smuggling and illegal immigration are huge issues within migration, and how people overall look at all the immigrants. Solutions to both of those topics logically would be higher security and better laws requirements towards immigration. Targeting Hispanics towards this kind of stuff would only cause social chaos and discrimination from the U.S. since most of the time it's also the own system that it's corrupted and discriminating towards minorities. America always considered immigrants as a threat to their culture. A great solution for these kinds of situations would be the actual acceptance of middle-class people, who are able to afford on their own to immigrate to the United States, and also the accountability that they already have a place secured and being economically stable enough to support themselves. Making sure minorities are knowledgeable of the big changes that is to immigrate as a minority to the united states and unmask the actual lifestyle of minorities there. Illegal immigration doesn’t have to be a thing, yet it can be stopped by the changing of laws, or better awareness to minorities to the big changes or dangers that they are facing by doing that kind of decisions. Smuggling drugs is a more difficult social problem to stop, yet better security or awareness towards people with addiction problems have. Also, another kind of way to stop the smuggling drugs through immigration would be at least better checkouts, and different points of security with different branches within the immigration place, since most of the time corruption places a huge part along these types of situations.

 Written Reflection What are my thoughts on how colored people are treated in the media?      Regarding the Social topic of racism during the 1900s. The film industry had a huge impact on who and how they cast their roles. According to the article "Humiliating Roles Turn Actor into a Cabbie' by Jose Angel Santana. Emphasizes the way white privilege ruled the industry and demand. Minorities such as Latin-Americans and black people were usually portraited with humiliating roles.      Most ill-fated fictional characters come from the ranks of poor, Latino, and 'alien' men. The percentage regarding the performers hired by big film industries is 5% below their U.S. population. In television White people r3ecieve around 82% of all roles, in contrast, 3% of Latino/Hispanics hired for TV jobs fall short.      The author expressed their experience as a Cuban man, who wasn't aware of how the field works, and in a matter of time, he noticed it didn...

     Regards to the African-American timeline, these are some of the events that I consider significant for black history.  1619 -  The first African American indentured servants arrive in the American colonies. Less than a decade later, the first slaves are brought into New Amsterdam (later, New York City). By 1690, every colony has slaves. To satisfy the labor needs of the rapidly growing North American colonies, slavery started to spread throughout the American colonies quickly. African-Americans were treated as humans but objects and mistreated to the point they are just overexploited. They didn't have rights, nor their own freedom. A lot of them died throughout the process out of starvation, overwhelmed, and abuse from their owners.  1868 - The 14th Amendment is ratified, defining citizenship. This overturns the Dred Scot decision. On July 21, The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution is ratified, granting citizenship to any person born ...
