Introduction

   Hello, my fellow bloggers and blog readers.


My name is Tyana, and to be completely honest I don't know really know what to write about, so I'm just going to wing it. I'm an extreme introvert who likes to read, binge-watch TV shows/movies and traveling. I have a weird obsession with ketchup, I basically put it on everything

(Please don't judge me, I know it's weird!!) On my off days I like to spend my time doing makeup and cooking, but I don't really get a lot of free time. This blog is really going to consist of the things I'm learning in my American History Class. 9 times out of 10 I won't know what's going on that class, so we're going to learn together. 

Hopefully this blog will allow me to actually understand and obtain knowledge instead of being confused. If I'm able to explain the things I learned clearly than I must be doing something right. I'm going to stop here before I put even more weird thing here. I tend to blabber alot

- Yours truly :)

In keeping with our traditional method, we will review our reading from the book " Essays on Immigration" before connecting it to our module. This week we’re going to talk about Carlos Bulosan. This module is so interesting, even the immigration story was intriguing. Out of all of the other immigration autobiographies we have covered, he is the most honest, and blunt about the issues in America.  Filipino immigrant Carlos Bulosan, like thousands of other immigrants before him, had hopes and dreams fo...

The Story of an Emigrant ~ Hans Madison

      ~19th Century~    Let's start with ✨Hans Mattson ✨, a Swedish, man who heard through the grapevine that North America was an opportunity to start a new and productive life. "But we knew that it was a new country, inhabited by a free and independent people, that it had a liberal government and great natural resource" (Blaisdell, 2013). Hans jumped at the opportunity just as thousands of others in the 19th century. A man with no knowledge of the English language, and only a friend to accompany his set out to Boston.  Shortly, after arriving in America, Hans was hit with challenge after challenge. From becoming extremely ill to being poor, even faced the possibility of losing his fingers. Hans realizes that maybe America wasn’t rainbows and kittens. He was sold a dream and given a nightmare. To be fair, Hans did make a lot of friends along the way, but none really stuck around.  In a nutshell, America wasn’t exactly what Hans expected it to be. Just...
