...In Alexander Nazaryan's article, he focuses on important issues that may be impacted by Trump's presidency. Most Californians are concerned about what is going to happen after the election of Trump. Immigration and border wall is the most important thing that I am concerned about as a California resident. As an immigrant, I knew exactly what immigrants go through until they can get a stable life in a new country that seems as heaven to them. Throughout history, America has welcomed an enormous number of immigrants than any other country in the world. In other words, almost all of the citizens are not originally from here and they have immigrated to the U.S. So, why they came and settled here? To have a more stable life. I am one of these people...

...globalization has increased the number of possible titles and “appellation[s] derived from local discriminations,” to divide ourselves. First, it is important to determine exactly what Washington’s stance on foreign affairs, political parties, and local divisions was and where they stemmed from. When George Washington first became president of the United States in 1789, he took command of a nation weakened by the Revolutionary War, surrounded by foreign powers, and divided internally. The United States' precarious position on the global stage shaped Washington's foreign policy and, in doing so, was confronted by the controversy and difficulties of forging a new path with no historic model to follow. Two particularly important moments in his presidency were the United States' Statement of Neutrality (1793) and the Jay Treaty (1794). On April 22, 1793, President George Washington issued a Neutrality Proclamation to define the policy of the United States in response to the spreading war in Europe. “The duty and interest of the United States require,” the Proclamation stated, “that they [the United States] should with sincerity and good faith adopt and pursue a conduct friendly and impartial toward the belligerent Powers.” The Proclamation warned Americans that the federal government would prosecute any violations of this policy by its citizens, and would not protect them if they were to be tried by a ‘belligerent nation’. This statement of policy triggered a fierce criticism from those...

...Many Arab Muslims say their community is turning on itself- shying away from a society increasingly inclined to equate Islam with terrorism.” (Fear ‘as bad as after 9/11’, Hampson). Historically, cultural differences and religion have been at the root of many wars, but in today’s society, blaming and persecuting an entire people for the violent acts of extremists will not end in peace or help make America any safer. We as americans, should strive to improve our policies for National Security, while also honoring and protecting our civil rights values for all whom it governs. With the results from our recent election, profiling and hate crimes numbers have started at an all time high. President elect Trump’s policies and issues that he wants to highlight throughout his presidency haven’t been the most ideally similar to the most of the minority population of america. One of those issues is the widely discussed “wall,” that Trump claims he will build to keep thousands of illegal immigrants out of US borders. He launched his campaign by denouncing Mexicans as “criminals, drug dealers, rapists, etc.” and has suggested building the wall on the US-Mexico border paid by the government of Mexico. If Mexico were not to comply, all remittances sent to the country would be blocked. Many of the people who sided with these same beliefs happened to be non-poc. In fact 76% of all white, republican males between the ages of 50-65 and up and 45% women of those same demographic voted for Trump...
