Which immigrant groups adapted especially well economically?
Which groups lagged? Why?
Answer (2)
Most Asians adapted well because they quickly learned how to compete with Americans in general, especially for jobs. Other races were also good, but often had other problems, like Mexicans often try to cross the border, and people in the Middle East are still dealing with a new terrorist threat: ISIS, which is still wreaking havoc on its civilians from even fleeing to the U.S Of course, White Caucasians made fun of all the other races, including Asians, and they tried to conquer the world 300 years ago for the same reasons. Hope this helps!
Asian immigrants often adapt well economically due to strong work ethics and community support, while groups like Mexican Americans and Middle Eastern immigrants face systemic barriers that limit their economic success. The Irish and Eastern European immigrants eventually found economic upward mobility despite initial challenges. Discrimination, education, and job access play crucial roles in their varying adaptations.
