Abstract | Frances Reuland describes her community in Chapel Hill, North Carolina and the changes she has seen due to the migration of different groups of people. She describes various experiences throughout her childhood and high school career that helped her notice the migrant communities within her town as well as how her town has changed as a response to these groups. As a student, she reflects on her experiences within the school and the way the school responded to the changes in the student body. She talks about people within her life that sparked her interest for immigration issues and that also helped her better understand their challenges. Frances mentions some of the differences she perceives from her community to those of migrant communities as she has grown to become more familiar with their experiences. She mentions ways in which she hopes the perception of immigration issues by non-immigrants will change and shared how her current views have expanded as a college student. |
