“American Immigrants” The writer Swerdlow in this writing goes from the early years of how American schools went from being all Anglo-American to becoming predominantly all foreigners. Meaning people from other countries. He states the year the school first opened in 1959 and then how during the mid-90s how millions of immigrants impacted the schools makeup.

The Accidental American Book Review I was born in Palo Alto, California June 21, 1989 and I am Persian. My parents came here thirty years ago with my older sister when she was two.
