What factors might make a person want to emigrate from their home country? What factors might make a person want to immigrate to a new country? Class members study the various waves of immigration to the US, looking at data about the number of immigrants, their countries of origin, and events that precipitated these migrations. They then analyze the story of an immigrant, identify the factors involved in the migration, and the human rights violations revealed by the scenarios.
