I think that migrant imaginaries can speak a lot to anti-immigration in the United States. I think that a lot of times Americans get caught up with how American they are and how they don't want immigrants coming to America to take their jobs, when in actuality, the U.S. soil was the native land to a lot of Mexican immigrants and their ancestors. I think a lot of times migrant sentiment is the view of opposing immigration due to the fear of immigrants takeover. A lot of times this is actually quite ironic because we fear the coming of more immigrants to the U.S. when the United States was actually a country built up of freedom and immigrants itself originally. This images just portrays that America is a giant melting pot that was built up by immigrants and the fight for freedom.
