Learning Experience
After reading Chapter 7 I learned alot about the Italians and Armenians that I did not know previous to this. The whole chapter to me was quite intriguing to read because it was all new information for me so I read it with a bit more interest. Its crazy to think about what different ethnic groups go through when they immigrate from one place to another and how over time things change for them. I love to learn new things because I gain knowledge and get to discuss later with peers. I'm really enjoying this class because as we continue on reading the chapters i'm learning quite alot about ethnic groups and their migration and what they had to go through which is so interesting to me because it is history I never really knew about.

I learned a lot of new things in this chapter as well, my favorite part of the chapter was that it confirmed that the Padrone system was a real thing, because I have only seen it in the Godfather films and thought it was simply a fabrication. It was also interesting that so many Italians came over to this country, so obviously they impacted the growth of our country I would like to see if any of their influence can be seen.
