Immigration+Project

=Interview Questions= Why did you want to leave your previous country? How did you get here? What was life like in your previous country? Do you think America lives up to its reputation as a "Promised Land"? What is your opinion on the difficulty on getting a job? Do you have a job? What is it? How well are you paid? How well are you treated at work? Where do you live? How are your living conditions? Is this place any better than your previous country? If so, by how much? Do you like it here?

1. Hello. Tell me about yourself. Name, age, country of origin, and an interesting fact. Muhammad Malik. 28. Iraq.

2. What convinced you to leave your original country? Tired of being poor

3. How does the democracy in the new Iraq compare to democracy in America? It's pathetic. In Iraq, the voting system is rigged. America is much better.

4. Do you miss the sand? No

5. What is your opinion of 9/11? It's a tragedy. I'm ashamed of my neighbors.

6. Do you ever feel discriminated against by the people here? Yes. I wear a turban. One time a kid pointed at me and said mom its a terrorist.

7. Do you think Iraq War will produce more Iraqi immigrants? Yes, because many people will feel unsafe and uncomfortable in their own homes, which is ridiculous. So they will look for someplace better. A place like here. A place where they can pursue their dreams without getting bombed.
