HISTORY 362 - U.S.Immigration History:Ethnicity and Diversity in the American Past

Institution:

Hope College

Subject:

Description:

"Diverse" has always been a descriptor for the people of the United States. Onclear marker of that diversity has been the constant change in our population due to immigration. Arriving from several continents for a myriad of reasons, immigrants have added to our heterogeneous population and challenged ideas about what it meant to be an American. Yet the goal of our nation, in the words of our national motto, E Pluribus Unum, is to find unity amongst our diversity. In this course, we will ask how immigration to and ethnic diversity within the United States both challenged and contributed to that goal by examining the major migrations to the United States from Africa, Europe, Asia and the Americas.
