The New Immigrants

Immigration is America’s number one social issue. THE NEW IMMIGRANTS: AMERICAN SUCCESS STORIES, profiles a group of legal, law-abiding, and productive immigrants who have settled in Arizona, and are contributing greatly to their communities. Author Anne Snowden Crosman talked to immigrants from all over the globe, including Mexico, Guatemala, China, India, Cambodia, Bali, England, France, Croatia, Eritrea, and Nigeria. They described courageously leaving their homelands, struggling in a foreign country, and carving a better life in America. With an eye on the future, they never gave up and they never looked back. Their qualities of hope, hard work, persistence, and determination reflect American core values and a “can-do” attitude that sets us apart from all other countries in the world. Their inspiring stories reveal focus, commitment, and passion to be the best they can.
