Immigration Blog Pitch

The topic chosen for my blog, for my area of expertise, that I will be writing about for this semester is immigration. Why this topic? Because not only have I experienced it myself as a young child and know how it is and how it feels, but also because this topic is something that you do not see everyone writing about nowadays. I have chosen the topic of immigration in general because I can branch off of it and, therefore, go in different directions and talk about it in different aspects such as: immigration affecting children in a psychological way, how the distancing from their families can affect them that they could enter into child depression, the affects it has on their schooling, on making friends, or even talk about how many people want to immigrate from different countries but cannot, therefore, it does not have to only be child based it can also focus, psychologically, on the family at hand.
This topic will focus on certain aspects that will show the rest of the readers, which might not know what it is like to immigrate and leave something behind, what it is like to sacrifice yourself and leave everything you have and start a new life in a country that seems like a whole another world to you. It will hopefully help raise awareness to how immigrants have a hard time adapting to the system, language, and the new life and hopefully grab someone’s attention so that in the workplace or in school, there will be people making life easier for the newcomers.
