The United States has long been considered a melting pot. I remember marveling at the way legal immigrants were welcomed into my Southern California neighborhood in the 60s and 70s.
Each of them came to the United States with the desire to own a piece of the American dream; making a better life for themselves and their families. As a general rule, they worked hard to assimilate into the American way of life by learning the English language and local customs. They did this while at the same time holding on to their cultural heritage and passing it on to each new generation of their families.
