Option C, the public was outraged and demanded legislative reform from the government, is the right answer.  

Upton Sinclair's (Muckraking Journalist) socialist policy forced him to write a Novel called “The Jungle” in 1906, which presented the harsh conditions and exploited lives of the immigrants, mainly in the Meat- packing industry of the United States. His primary purpose for writing this Novel was to advance Socialism in the U.S. As the people of the United States came to know about the actual condition of the workers in the meat packing industry thus they became outrageous and demanded the federal government to pass legislative reforms. Therefore, the impact of the book and the demands of the people resulted in the “ Pure Food and Drug Act” passed by the government fer months later.

I am incredibly upset that my own family and friends were taken from me. I feel as though I have nothing left. I'd rather be with people I love and know, then be alive in this tribe withpeople whom I have never met. They look at me like they dont want me ti be here...

The resources that I used to trade with have been stripped from my very own hands. I have nothing, no name, no family-only this new meaningless life. They people here say that they are glad that I am here, but there face says it all. They glare at me and ignore me. Actions speak louder than words.

Write a cer about why there was conflict over immigrants
aliina [53]

Answer:

Migration is variously characterized as an important determinant of violent conflict and political instability, national power, imperial expansion, ethnic conflict, radicalism, terrorism, environmental degradation, and economic growth or stagnation. In high immigration receiving states such as Australia and the United States—among the world's most inclusive migrant incorporation regimes—immigration increasingly complicates foreign policy making choices, and may present challenges to each host nation's internal cohesion.. Issues such as dual nationality, social exclusion, multiculturalism, and fear of international terrorism—especially in a post-9/11 context—generate considerable political heat and public debate.

2nd paragraph: Combatants in the immigration debate start from very different world views – not only emphasizing different values but almost speaking different languages. To avoid destructive backlashes, reformers must understand and respect the values and perspectives of all groups involved in public debates.Immigration—and public policies to manage it—arouses strong emotions and fierce social and political battles, not just in the United States but in most other countries across the world. Why is this true? Each nation has its own issues that inspire or enrage, of course, but there are widespread, underlying patterns that can be identified and taken into consideration by reformers.
