Reflection on Hw8-One Hundred Years of Multitude

   I think this article,One Hundred Years of Multitude,is a very fine article that tell us that the US is improving. Most people of today are not racist,unlike 100 years before, and we can learn that the world is really improving by reading this article. From the Dillingham Commission to today's "melting pot" America, we can know clearly that the world has change. Although some still have Dillingham's spirit, we can be sure that today's America is truely a "melting pot" as Amy Tan described.

   I also learned that how many "intresting" research people done before. I never thought that people will make race dictionaries. It is unbelievable and scary. When I look at the word "eugenics", the first and only word that pop up my mind is "Nazi", but not US. It is surprising that US had done similiar things as the Nazis, yet America did not go that far as Nazis.

   In conclusion, I learned many things from this article, and I am glad that I had read it.
