I learned that Mexico is a bad place to live and alot of bad things go on there.I think every body should be treated the same.
Pedro is a man that worked hard. He is a Mexican.He worked in the field he worked cropping plants.
When the people die they do the funeral for three straight days without stopping. Hmong eat egg rolls and rice.
In Mexico when someone turns 15 they have a big party. Also they sometimes have problems with speaking.
Some other cultures like Mien,Hmong,and Mexicans came to America to explore the land. Some cultures run away from there own country.
The war in Vietnam was a big struggle for all the people.During the war in Vietnam wich was through 1960-1975 alot of men,women,and children had died those were really tough times for everybody compared to the times we have now.
The man is away from his family because he is working at a meat packing plant. He wishes he was back in Mexico.
I think that black history is cool. Because my dad told me about his history when he was a little boy.
I learned that Hmong people live in two worlds.I also learned that Hmong people love to eat Egg rolls and rice.
Most Mexicans came from Mexico.But they came to the USA to have a better life.
I like about Hmong culture because they are cool to play.And i like to play soccer every day at home.
I LEARNED ABOUT AFRICAN AMERICANS THEY ARE GOOD PEOPLE.THEY TALK ABOUT THERE CULTURAL.
I think black history is cool because everyone gets to see how they lived their life back then.but now every thing has change for them cause we have a new black president .so now I think every thing is going well.And what I learned is that from past we get to see what happened but now I think everything is going good but it is kind of going bad because some people are mean. so that is what I learned about black history.
Mexican people have a card to pass to get in California. If Mexican people pass the state they might get send back there or go to jail.
Mexicans like soccer, but some don’t. At parties they eat good food.
