“Coming to California: Chasing the Dream “ by Gibbs and Bankhead discusses the problems of multiculturalism. It focuses on discrimination and other prejudices that arise from racism. This is also what the main focus of “What is Multiculturalism?” by Jay. They both similarly speak about what are the effects that immigrants have brought for the United States. Jay talks about how we define ourselves based upon the nation that we live in.
Politics is one major issue that both readings shared in common. Politicians are quick and eager to find new immigrant groups who could be blamed for society’s issues. An example of this would be against homosexuals and the fight for Prop 8 (same sex marriages). They (Politicians) are always seeking to exploit minorities and blue-collar workers.
