Source 1: Many Immigrants Perceive Racial Discrimination at Work, in Health Care

Juan Flores in his article “Many Immigrants Perceive Racial Discrimination at Work, in HealthCare” found in UMMERCED published Nov,15,2021, implies that many immigrants face unfairness and discrimination in work because of where they are from. He supports this claim by using Data/ statistics from different places, for example, it states “Researchers found that 70% of the 2,000 people surveyed perceived that immigrants experienced discrimination in the workplace due to skin color or accent.” To add “ In the Valley, 17% of residents said they had been racially profiled by law enforcement, compared to 14% in Southern California and 12% in the Bay Area.” by using these percentages and numbers Juan Flores strongly backs up his claim that many immigrants face unfairness and discrimination in work because of where they are from. Flores’s purpose is to bring light to the topic of immigrants facing discrimination, and he wants to achieve this by writing about the different places that have immigrants that are facing discrimination and sharing it with the world. Because of the author’s tone, you can tell he is writing for the immigrant and Law audience.
