Description

This project is a literature review focusing on immigration in the United States and Europe. This project evaluates different perspectives among immigrants and native citizens. The review focuses on the intersection of religion and immigration, both discriminatory and supportive practices and perspectives. Findings include biases among religious groups regarding immigrants. Discrimination stems from the societal and cultural frameworks from where individuals originate. This review finds religious organizations that offer support and resources to immigrants in their communities. Religious groups must do what they can to support immigrants in this ongoing issue.
