M3D2: The Changing Demographics of the U.S
Module 3
In this discussion we will examine more closely the data on the changing demographics of the U.S. population. Remembering that we are a nation of immigrants, that we promise a better life to those who wish to come here, work hard, and follow our laws, we cannot deny the strains and conflicts that arise when large numbers of immigrants are entering the U.S. each year. We will examine these recent immigrants who identify themselves as Hispanic on the Census Bureau data—the fastest growing segment of the population. Remember that many Hispanics here today come from families that have been U.S. citizens for centuries. The history of the southwestern states and Puerto Rico is a history of Hispanic peoples from before the U.S. was a country.
