Question-Compare and Contrast the Chinese and the Irish immigrants of the late 1800's and decide if the groups are more alike or more different.
Answer- Immigrants are immigrants. An immigrant is someone who wasn't born in the United States. They're are several types of immigrants. Not all immigrants are treated kind or nice. A perfect examples of immigrants that weren't treated right were the Chinese and Irish. The Chinese were disliked so much they had a Chinese Exclusion Act meaning they weren't allowed in the United States for 10 years. The Irish weren't treated so bad. The Irish problems were only with words. The Irish would be told call disgusting and rude just like the Chinese The difference between the Irish and Chinese is that Americans were afraid that the Chinese would take out all there jobs but the Irish didn't really have a action on them. If anything the Irish and Chinese are alike more than different.

8/20 (65) - Kimora, You did a good job of giving some background information, but I would like for you to state your claim earlier (like in the introduction section) and then using hard facts from the documents we study in your writing. This is a weak argument, since you did not include specific details other than the act.
