They should not think of themselves as inferior to these people. Instead, they should put in their minds that they are even more educated and civilized than these people who think of themselves as superior. .
In reality, immigrants can never be called an American because they weren't born in America. Immigrants are people who were born in their hometown that carries their quality being the race they were born with. This means that one can't be a Filipino yesterday and 10 years later he/she is considered as an American. Although it is said that after 6 years immigrants can apply for citizenship, this does not mean that an immigrant lost their being a "Filipino" or any race they were born with. My father said, "I can't be an American with the same or similar race, but can be one in thoughts, in words and in deed". He can be an American at the same time maintaining his cultural identity as a Filipino. .
My father's experience here in U.S. as an immigrant is that one must really have to work and or work hard in order to live. Although there are so many luxuries here, life is not that easy. For instance, I came to realize that owning a car is not a luxury but a necessity. People are so materialistic here. Another point is food. In school, students just throw away food that they don't want. Back in the Philippines, people could hardly eat twice or once a day. It's so frustrating how America throws tons of food away while there's the whole world crying for food. .
I can easily relate with my father's experience since, I, myself, am an immigrant too. I've experienced a similar if not the same type of discrimination at my own house office in school. Moreover, I've gone through a painful period of adjustment. I remember those times when I don't know how to operate some of the machines. I was shocked to see how traffic here was so organized and how vehicles give the right of way to pedestrians.
