From watching Faces of America I learned that we are all in a way immigrants. It showed us that our ancestors came to America many years ago. It is crazy to think that when you look at your class mates to think thy if you were sitting next to their ancestors from a hundred years ago they might be from a place different then your own. Its awesome to know that America is made up of so many different cultures all put together in on united nation. I believe the term nation of immigrants means that we are a nation of of previous immigrants to the country which there fore make us in a way immigrants are self.

To me it is crazy to think that my family before me lived in a different country and moved to America possibly for a new opportunity for jobs or because conditions were that great in their country. I wish I knew why my family members came to America and if they were possibly thinking about the future of their children and grand childrens life. I can understand why my irish ancestor came tO America, possible because the potato famine, but I am not sure about my others. This is some I wish to look into.
