My parents are immigrants and have made a wonderful life here for my family and I. Definitely worth the watch and will be sharing in the future. Very touching! Thank you, Mr. Ben Huh.
Thank you for educating people. As an immigrant just telling you the struggle is more than real at times. What is appalling is to see immigrants that forget their roots and have a lack of empathy towards their own people.
As a child of immigrant parents, this was quite relatable and touching. When I was born, my family (parents and 2 brothers) had to move put of their shabby apartment and moved to a small trailer home. There, my 3 brothers and I shared the same room. My mom and dad shared the other, however, my little brother would occasionally sleep with them. I remember our bedroom being so cramped. I remember counting coins to pay the bills. They took long hours and double jobs. Years later, we live in a house with enough bedrooms and we're going to university. My parents have taken us a long way. And I'm sincerely proud and grateful for that.
As an immigrant, this breaks my heart. Because I remember everything, the struggle, the fear, the pain. Thank you for making this video. You help me remember what it was like, but also, what I can do in this new country.
Yeaa I'm also immigrant. I came USA 2 weeks ago. Whem I'm just thinking about future then i really crying. Noone can help here just do yourself everything.
Happy July 4th. 7 years ago, you already have said these words. How remarkable! Are we better? Are we worse? Are we improving? Thank you for present the talk.
Yesterday, we finished an immigration process for my husband and my son that took over two years to complete. For the past three months, my husband was held back in country while his son migrated with me to the United States. They had been waiting over seven years to be reunited. Even though the visas for both had been approved six months ago, our government chose to keep them separated for another three months, a heartbreaking experience, which I proud to say is finally over. We are living testimony that it is easier to ship a box of ANYTHING to the US than it is to reunite a parent with their child.
as a second generation Vietnamese I wish I had ask my parents more often about how they immigrated, all the cities they lived in before settling down and having me. At 25 I just learned one or two of the cities they were in or the fact a wonderful Lutheran Church sponsored my mother from a refugee camp in Malaysia. I don't even know how long she was on the boat before that. I am forever grateful of my mother and father who left their families to give me and my brothers a better life.
Empathy is not difficult. What if you lost one of your hands? What if your wife died? What if everyone you loved disappeared on a sailing trip. What if you never had a father? You can learn to become more empathetic. You can understand others suffering. This is the point of most stories. To understand something that did not happen to you. I have suffered in ways most haven't. That fact does not put me below or above anyone else. It kept me down as long as I let it. The power of suffering can be eliminated through effort, will and connecting with others. Live Life. Love Life.
In every nation people need to learn get along and stop the conflicts and wars. learn to get along with your brothers and sisters. learn to love and not to hate. Stop forcing their people from their land. Everyone may not always agree, but be able to listen to the other person, and come to a conclusion and agreement.

I have developed my engineering skills, even earning a master's degree in electromagnetics from Ohio State. I am dedicated to emigrating to Russia, Western Europe, Canada, or any country where a highly skilled U.S. citizen has a chance to start a career in engineering. Why does it have to be so hard for the productive and talented people in this country to find a nation where they can apply themselves?
The most I have struggled with after 15 years here is the dead silence of judgment from 'real' Americans (not all though) right after they recognize that you have an accent. Takes 2 seconds. I guess people are naturally thrown off by the hint of different culture if they are not open. This creates a lot of unconscious bias, especially at workplace where we are essentially all trying to climb up the hierarchy and claim resources, which further creates divides among the immigrants themselves who are all trying to fit in. Unless you are accepted by the society, you can never call it your country by heart. Well! Hopefully our children won't judge the new immigrants in future but they will because they will have forgotten about the struggles of their parents or great grandparents.
Aren't their parents and grandparents entitled to have the wealth that they have paid for, go to their own descendants, not to strangers from other continents whose parents haven't contributed? Modern migrants are like burglars. They come to share other people's inheritance.
I am a first immigration immigrant from former Soviet Union. You are speaking about so many experiences that are common among all people. I came here at 17 and my brother at 12. I can understand very well the experience of feeling a pull and knowing that as a first generation immingrant who became a legal US citizen five years later in 1995, I am still asked the all wonderful question of 'Where are you from'. Answer is complicated, but the answer is - The world :). Thank you for much for speaking up and sharing your life experience.

I suppose I've been an immigrant before because I used to live in china but I don't really remember much about it. The worst part was really just not being able to communicate with anyone. I was finally beginning to understand chinese when my parents moved again.
The majority of people don't have a problem with legal immigration, they have an issue with Forced Entry & Settlement & the justifications for it. I think that makes sense based on Principles like creating Order, Consent (both bridges & boundaries), Sustainability (being able to be indefinitely continued, rather than changed when it gets too bad). And I believe that Love of Self & Others means one first attempts & is concerned to create order & the conditions for flourishing INSIDE one's Boundaries before doing it OUTSIDE. I also believe it makes sense based on other Principles too, like it being a Gift, not something to expect & demand. None of that means not giving Refugee Status to those who don't force Entry & Settlement. Btw I'm not from the US. I am an Immigrant. My father was an illegal immigrant & got caught & deported.
How much of legal immigration do you understand exactly? Be careful before you post, there are people with hands-on experience who can shut down that argument, myself included.
Ben - Good talk. One counter-point: lots of immigrant today face both nature and policy hardships, e.g., walk with your kind from Honduras and then get imprisoned or turned-away. Time to update the talk?
Profound and acid about the reality of lawmaking and the purpose of self interest, it is a big issue no political party want to get in. You are as the millions of the present immigrants that suffer this utopic call the American dream.
Very few people have an issue with legal immigration. As a second generation Cuban I understand the sacrifices that must be made to succeed in America. It isn’t easy and it SHOULD NOT be. Not everyone will succeed but America offers the CHANCE to succeed unlike most countries.
As an Afghanistan immigrant, after 9 years still not sure what I am doing and where I am going from here. Spent 7 years serving US army and my country was handed over to a terrorist group, whom I was fighting. Not able to meet family for 9 YEARS
All countries are built by the descendants of immigrants. Unless your family has never left the Rift Valley in Africa, you are the descendant of immigrants. The first European settlers didn't sail into an established community with roads, bridges, dams, power stations, water and power distribution networks to take a share of the wealth built by a different ethnic group, as modern migrants do. Those early nation builders are entitled to have the fruits of their labour go to their own descendants, not to latecomers.
Many Americans are not skilled workers and we do not even make $2000 a month, many Americans work two jobs and have not enough to eat and we were born here...Life is tough everywhere not just for immigrants...
I really don't think it's that simple man. It looks to me like compassion vs realism. The fact that you say "I really don't know why people are afraid of immigrants" is telling that you don't understand the other side of immigration, you only see the compassion side. Are there positives and negatives to immigration or is it simply a net positive? If there is one negative then be honest to me about it and stop sugar coating everything to me like a salesmen.
As a man I would never leave my original country. My job here is to fight for the betterment of my family and my society. Period. Not to run away when faced with problems... Only weak men run...
You sound like a weak man, a real man is able to adapt to situations and do what needs to be done. I bet you’re the first to run in a fight, you’re probably in your 40s ? Wife and kids left you now your angry at the world
Our nations are our homes and we, our parents and our grandparents have invested enormous amounts of time, energy and effort into making their homes comfortable places to live. Our borders are the equivalent of the doors on our houses. Do you have a lock on the door of your house? Do you let anyone who wants to, to move into your home and share the shelter and equipment and furniture that you have worked hard to pay for? Modern immigrants are like burglars. Those first waves of migrants who built the country, and did the hard yards of starting a nation, are entitled to have the fruits of their labour go to their own descendants, not to the Johnny-Come-Latelies from foreign countries. Discriminating on the basis of race is unfair because none of us can choose our race or change it. But when choosing those with whom we share our inheritance we have no obligation to be fair. We have no obligations to share the stuff that our ancestors have left for us at all.
Refugees come from places in the world where the people have failed to reduce their reproduction to replacement level or below. I had fewer children than I wanted to have because we couldn't afford them. I deeply resent my country being used as an overflow tank for people who have reproduced selfishly, greedily and irresponsibly. I deeply resent my family being taxed to provide 'better lives' for foreigners from countries with high fertility rates.
it's painful how the issues that have been raised in this speech have become all the worse over time the past 3/4 years - you'd hope that people had learned to respect the value of immigration, but here we are, with a President who thinks it's acceptable to have a Muslim ban amongst other things. Isn't this just a repetition of policies such as the Chinese Exclusion Act? And imagine the outrage if that happened now. So why do people think it's acceptable when it's countries such as Syria, Iraq and Iran?
Maybe we believe many people who come to this country do not want to assimilate and would rather bring the failed policies from the countries they came from with them.
The United States has no obligation to share their country with anyone, and if they do decide to share the infrastructure and institutions that is their birthright, then they have no obligation to be fair when choosing the people with whom to share it with. If Americans aren't migrating to Korea or China, then why should they accept immigrants from those countries? The inscription that this speaker refers to was not part of the statue of Liberty. It was added later to the plinth. The first whites who migrated to the USA did not sail into an established country with roads, bridges, buildings etc. They started from scratch. They have no obligation to share their inheritance with latecomers, who weren't interested in the USA until the Europeans had established their civilisation there.
We are not saying we are against immigration nor immigrants & we have come a long way The, school my son went too, white students were the minority , out of 387 students , 63 were white only.....America can only take in so many immigrants it is not only the financial aspect that is important here, it is the environment, we only have so many resources and a lot of immigrants relies on government aid, attend public school which raise our tax dollars. Which is fine, education is important and all children deserve to have a free education, however 250 teachers were laid off this year and more immigrants than ever are flooding the schools, when is enough , enough...?? When people knock on my door I have a right weather I would like to have them in my home. we do have a right to say sorry house is full. America has a right to say no.. We need to adopt the rules other countries have, in other words what are you bringing to the table if you are only bringing another hungry mouth to feed, uh sorry we are having enough struggle feeding Americans right now...Americans first...
Would it be better if the U.S. just let in everyone? What would be the result of that. What would be the result of the massive influx of peoples with different traditions, beliefs, and languages? What would be the result if many of these people hold beliefs that are hostile to human and civil rights? Does Mr. Huh's own country, Korea, just let in everyone, regardless of national origin, skill, beliefs? There is really nothing of substance in this video except a trashing of immigration policy designed to create a stable and thriving American society and economy.
What if I was? Well I'm not. I could be if I moved to another country. And if I did, I have enough respect for common decency that I wouldn't forget that the host culture has more of a right to be there than I do. You're an immigrant and it's tough? Well you chose to be an immigrant. Don't like it? Move.
'The parents pay the costs'? No, they don't. The host country pays the costs. Migrants use infrastructure that neither they, nor their parents or grandparents paid for. Migrants create a need for more and more infrastructure that the whole community has to pay for, not just the latecomers who make it necessary. The construction companies rub their hands in glee at the profits that they make out of the taxpayers, building stuff for recently arrived foreigners. Their workers love their taxpayer funded jobs too. The taxes spent on infrastructure counts as GDP, which governments can brag about as an economic gain, when in reality it is a drain on finances.
the parents don't pay for it .......the citizens of the United States the legal ones do. these children just reap all of the benefits take all of our money and I'm sick and tired of hearing about this. I don't want to sound like a cold b**** but seriously it's my tax dollars that are going to support these people who come here illegally. if you think you've Got It Bad think about the person who's working night and day to make ends meet and they can't I don't feel sorry ..........so sorry about that.
Society thinks that immigrants abuse government spending when they generally don’t even qualify to receive any. In fact, they pay more in taxes than most of us commenting. Sending their children to school does initially drain finances from the government, but that is an investment. As these children get older, they will benefit our economy, higher education, leads to higher paid jobs, eventually leading to higher-paid taxes.

As a fellow immigrant in Sweden, I can certainly empathize with your experiences.
as a second generation Vietnamese I wish I had ask my parents more often about how they immigrated, all the cities they lived in before settling down and having me. At 25 I just learned one or two of the cities they were in or the fact a wonderful Lutheran Church sponsored my mother from a refugee camp in Malaysia. I don't even know how long she was on the boat before that. I am forever grateful of my mother and father who left their families to give me and my brothers a better life.
I am sure they worked very hard, adapted painfully to new culture, and lived in the dream hopping their children have a better life in USA.
+Europa Man useful and fun? Stop dehumanizing entire cultures and replacing them with trivial words.
All immigrants can relate to this experience. Its real and relevant
Empathy is not difficult. What if you lost one of your hands?
What if your wife died?
What if everyone you loved disappeared on a sailing trip. What if you never had a father?
You can learn to become more empathetic. You can understand others suffering. This is the point of most stories. To understand something that did not happen to you.

Weren't we all Africans are one point in ancient history?
It could happen to anyone.
Many Americans are not skilled workers and we do not even make $2000 a month, many Americans work two jobs and have not enough to eat and we were born here...Life is tough everywhere not just for immigrants...
Immigrants start business at a higher rate because it's an opportunity and survival.

I really don't think it's that simple man. It looks to me like compassion vs realism. The fact that you say "I really don't know why people are afraid of immigrants" is telling that you don't understand the other side of immigration, you only see the compassion side.

The United States has no obligation to share their country with anyone, and if they do decide to share the infrastructure and institutions that is their birthright, then they have no obligation to be fair when choosing the people with whom to share it with. If Americans aren't migrating to Korea or China, then why should they accept immigrants from those countries?
The inscription that this speaker refers to was not part of the statue of Liberty. It was added later to the plinth.
The first whites who migrated to the USA did not sail into an established country with roads, bridges, buildings etc. They started from scratch. They have no obligation to share their inheritance with latecomers, who weren't interested in the USA until the Europeans had established their civilisation there.
We are not saying we are against immigration nor immigrants & we have come a long way The, school my son went too, white students were the minority , out of 387 students , 63 were white only.....America can only take in so many immigrants it is not only the financial aspect that is important here, it is the environment, we only have so many resources and a lot of immigrants relies on government aid, attend public school which raise our tax dollars. Which is fine, education is important and all children deserve to have a free education, however 250 teachers were laid off this year and more immigrants than ever are flooding the schools, when is enough , enough...??
When people knock on my door I have a right weather I would like to have them in my home. we do have a right to say sorry house is full. America has a right to say no..
We need to adopt the rules other countries have, in other words what are you bringing to the table if you are only bringing another hungry mouth to feed, uh sorry we are having enough struggle feeding Americans right now...Americans first...
Would it be better if the U.S. just let in everyone? What would be the result of that. What would be the result of the massive influx of peoples with different traditions, beliefs, and languages? What would be the result if many of these people hold beliefs that are hostile to human and civil rights? Does Mr. Huh's own country, Korea, just let in everyone, regardless of national origin, skill, beliefs? There is really nothing of substance in this video except a trashing of immigration policy designed to create a stable and thriving American society and economy.
Ben who???

What if I was? Well I'm not. I could be if I moved to another country. And if I did, I have enough respect for common decency that I wouldn't forget that the host culture has more of a right to be there than I do. You're an immigrant and it's tough? Well you chose to be an immigrant. Don't like it? Move.
char jl Someday everyone will move.

You should look Korean culture and government. :) You would be surprise. America is a great country.
thats bullshit
liu jingkun how?
'The parents pay the costs'? No, they don't. The host country pays the costs. Migrants use infrastructure that neither they, nor their parents or grandparents paid for. Migrants create a need for more and more infrastructure that the whole community has to pay for, not just the latecomers who make it necessary.
The construction companies rub their hands in glee at the profits that they make out of the taxpayers, building stuff for recently arrived foreigners. Their workers love their taxpayer funded jobs too. The taxes spent on infrastructure counts as GDP, which governments can brag about as an economic gain, when in reality it is a drain on finances.
🖕🖕🖕🖕all you illegals!!!!
the parents don't pay for it .......the citizens of the United States the legal ones do. these children just reap all of the benefits take all of our money and I'm sick and tired of hearing about this. I don't want to sound like a cold b**** but seriously it's my tax dollars that are going to support these people who come here illegally. if you think you've Got It Bad think about the person who's working night and day to make ends meet and they can't I don't feel sorry ..........so sorry about that.
Society thinks that immigrants abuse government spending when they generally don’t even qualify to receive any. In fact, they pay more in taxes than most of us commenting. Sending their children to school does initially drain finances from the government, but that is an investment. As these children get older, they will benefit our economy, higher education, leads to higher paid jobs, eventually leading to higher-paid taxes.
immigrants pay way more to the system than they ever take. Also they work harder and create better futures for themselves
