Topic: “Discrimination against Hispanic immigrants in the US”
the following is some of my ideas on this paper
1. the internet enlarge the hatred in the US. Sinse a repeated slander makes others believe, more and more people begin to join the discriminate team. Meanwhile, the social influence including the foreign cultural invasion cause panic and the conformity on some US social group let them dicriminate with others together.
2. Due to the result-oriented, the Hispanic immigrants threat the benefit of citizens in the US., they repel the entry of Hispanic immigrants. From the objective phenomenon, plus the subjective thoughts, the social influence shapes behavior.
A resourse:
“The key insight from this model is that high proportions of similarcultured individuals in a community retard the rate of assimilation. This
effect goes part of the way to explaining the slow assimilation of Mexicans
into American society. Because Mexicans live in communities with other
Mexicans to a larger degree (by far) than other ethnic groups, Mexicans incentives to assimilate are reduced relative to other immigrants. ”
(This is the original paragraph, we should paraphrase it)
