Answer:
The immigration experience for different groups of immigrants is different and they assimilated to American society in different ways. There were also biases and prejudices on the part of mainstream society that were barriers for some populations.
Explanation:
The process of assimilating into American culture is complex. The early immigrants from Northern Europe who arrived in colonial times or shortly thereafter had an easier assimilation process as they were more like the settlers culturally and historically although some Scandinavian and German cultural influences remained among families and in particular regions. There was also a large population who immigrated from Ireland around time from the 1820s to 1860s. In the mid to late 1800s there were waves of immigration from Southern and Eastern Europe and they were linguistically and culturally more distinct and so they also created enclaves in many of the the largest cities that allowed them to keep some of their heritage. Generally by the second generation immigrant children adopt many of the traits of the dominant culture and they are bilingual in many cases but can speak English like anyone born American. The Chinese for example were discriminated against and excluded with the Chinese Exclusion Act in 1882. It was harder for them to assimilate.
This would be false. His letter basically is about nonviolent resistance. It doesn't really have anything to do with President Kennedy, and it's talking about unjust laws, and to take direct action instead of using violence.

Answer:
Freedom and equality.
Explanation:
The Congress during the 1990's enacted "The Civil Rights Act" on July 2, 1964 which prohibited private bisinesses unequal application of discrimination and racial segregation in employment, public services, and public accomodations, on the bases of physical and mental disabilities, which clashes between the freedom and equality of the citizens.
The Act further prohibits unequal application of Voter registration requirements, and racial segregation in schools, employment, and public accomodations and also on bases of mental and physical disabilities.
This discriminatory act by private businesses construed upon the freedom and equality of the citizens to be given free and fair chances in business to gain employment, to benefit from public services, and public accommodations, and the Congress feels that its duty is to guarantee all citizens equal protection of the law and protect their voting rights irrespective of any disabilities they might have.
