8th Grade Literacy Speeches

277 Words2 Pages

I am writing to you today on the behalf of my 8th grade literacy class, because I would like to tell you want my views are on refugees from middle east countries. I personally feel that we should let these refugees into the United States of America. This is because they are innocent people caught in the middle of a civil war. However, people are still making untrue claims and assumptions against these people just because they were born in the middle east.

Some statement you might hear is that since these people are Muslim they are terrorist, but in their religion, Islam they practice peace and helping others. So if any member of ISIS or terrorist group claims that they are Muslim is false because they are not following the true meaning of

  • Civil Rights Activists: Eleanor Roosevelt

    1248 Words  | 5 Pages

    Following conflicts in countries such as Afghanistan, Somalia, Syria and Iraq, the latest estimates say that 1 in 100 of the world’s population displaced, with a substantial amount of these people being refugees. Whether forced by war, poverty, or political reasons to leave their homelands, these refugees are looking to the West, particularly Europe and America, for shelter and are being reluctantly accepted. Here in America, historically and even today, majority of the native population has been against the idea of welcoming refugees (Connor and Krogstad). While majority of Americans have opposed the “Muslim ban,” that does not mean religion is not a reason why people would reject refugees. With nearly half of the refugees being self-reported Muslims and 62 percent of American citizens citing Islamic terrorism as the greatest problem the country faces, it would not be a stretch to say that those who oppose accepting refugees maybe fearful of refugees because of their religious beliefs (Bowman).

  • Refugees In America After Ww2 Essay

    1047 Words  | 5 Pages

    This article talks about refugees that entered United States since WWII, their experience in America and the way Americans treated them. United States always have the concept of accepting refugees which is an easy task but to include them within the law has always been a slow process. For example, they always failed to provide additional admissions for the Jewish refugees before and after WWII. After WWII, the US congress passed refugee legislation and they still had some inequality against the Jews. In 1946 there were about 844000 refugees and was decided to settle them in different countries.

  • The Pros And Cons Of Refugees

    972 Words  | 4 Pages

    Leaders and governments around the world have labelled refugees as being a burden on their country either directly or indirectly. These leaders only see them as people who are trying to get into their country to escape the civil war, but fail to see that the refugees are also risking their lives in the process. At present, there are approximately 54.5 million refugees that are displaced, the largest refugee crisis the world has ever seen and they have nowhere to go. The question of doing the right thing and taking them in has been squashed due to various reasons and it appears to be that each country has adopted the ‘each man for himself’ policy by stating that it is their duty to only look after its citizens and no one else.
