This is a state by state look at how immigration to America has changed over time.
In 1850, the vast majority of newcomers were from Ireland and Germany.
In the 1860’s the labor shortages during the Civil War created strong demand for immigrant labor, nearly doubling the foreign born population in a decade.
1870 saw Mexico become the top country of origin in much of the Southwest, while British immigrants preferred the rocky mountain territories.
The 1880 census showed that the Chinese were coming in large numbers. Many took dangerous jobs in the mines or on railroad building crews. For the next century immigrants from Canada crossing the southern border would be the largest group settling in many of the northernmost American states.
In 1882 the Chinese Exclusion Act blocked the arrival of large numbers of Asian immigrants for much of the next century. Unfortunately the overall microdata for the 1890 census were destroyed in a 1921 fire at the Department of Commerce.
So fast-forward to 1900, the turn of the century, when the territorial boundaries of the continental United States were settled. For the first time Norwegians, Swedes, and Italians were the largest groups coming to South Dakota, Minnesota and Louisiana, respectively.
1910 shows us how quickly things can change, with large numbers of Russians and Italians arriving, the only state where Ireland was the top country of origin was tiny Delaware.
With the American population exceeded 100 million in the 1920 census, there were equal numbers of German, Italian, and Russian born immigrants. Many had fled Europe to escape the horrors of World War I.
By 1930 the industrial revolution was in full swing, and the country was growing rapidly from within, so the percent of foreign born fell. And, for the first time since 1850, Mexico was the dominant country of origin for new arrivals to California.
By 1940, the quotas and other congressional measures passed in the previous decade to restrict immigration sharply cut the foreign born population to below 9%.
1950 saw the effects of the repeal of the Chinese Exclusion Act, as Chinese immigrants were finally welcomed back. Greeks were the largest group arriving in South Carolina.
When Alaska and Hawaii became states in 1959, the year before the 1960 census, Canadians simply crossed the border to immigrate to The Last Frontier, but Filipinos crossed an entire ocean to become The Aloha State’s largest group.
By 1970, the percentage of foreign born reached an all-time low. And with immigrants arriving from a wider range of countries, Italy was the only nation that had sent more than a million people.
In 1980, after Congress began granting more visas to people from the Western Hemisphere, the number of states where Mexico was the top country of origin doubled in a decade, becoming the dominant foreign born population in the entire country.
And in 1990 America began to look like the diverse country we live in today. Mexico was tops in 18 states, Dominicans were the largest group coming to New York, and South Korea and Southeast Asian nations were the leading countries of origin in seven states.
In the year 2000 census the number of Mexican-born immigrants surpassed nine million. It’s also notable that India was the top country of origin in three states.
And the 2010 census reveals exactly why America is quickly becoming so diverse: only five states - all of them bordering Canada - received the most immigrants from a majority white country.

YOU HAVE NOT MENTIONED ABOUT THE NATIVE AMERICANS !
What about the slaves that were transported into the US from Africa throughout the decades? Are they included in the data for the sources of immigration in the US?
Can you résume video in english ?
@@AMEROPOLITIK They coming illigally.What do you think Europe immigrants are not coming that mean you people population will be high.Europe is wealthy country.Europe population will be high after the pandamic.
I would hardly call the vast majority of immigrants coming from a single nation "diverse"
Choa South God Queen didnt you look at The map? What about The germans?
germans settled large parts of the country but they were not the only ones immigrating and were not in as significant numbers as compered to mexicans currently sooo false equivalency.
"diversity" = not white.
This video is pure radical liberal propaganda.
i bet the left is trying to make the frogs gay
Well 8 of those states belonged to Mexico, so they didn't cross the border... the border crossed them.
i think a loot of them settled there when the border was redrawn
Igor Franco their were only maybe 40,000 Mexicans in the territory when it was annexed, the vast majority of them in the country today came later.
you lost the war boo hoo
Juan Marin what do they mean by that
Fayt Strife
I am not sure where you're from, but over where I'm from, I have yet to meet a Mexican that claims so.

*insert horst-wessel demonetisedlied*
WW2 reference
@Jacob Reedy And about russian migrants, too.
Actually many of the German immigrants escaped Nazi Germany, and actually opposed Nazism.
XDDDDD
Diversity isn't inherently racial. It is ethnic, religious, dialectical and cultural.
@Joseph Kennedy Do you mean to put a comma after "wrong"?
@Joseph Kennedy wow, you're edgy
Joseph Kennedy A perfect excuse for sounding like an Irish drunk.
And linguistic, which dialectal is a part of
P.S.: You meant to say dialectal, not dialectical
Mad Lad fax
As a Hispanic, I find it weird that he defines diversity by "non-white." Dude, if people are coming from Germany, Canada or Italy, that is diversity. They come from different countries with different backgrounds. Expand your definition of diversity to include more than skin color.
Elie M it's the vanilla liberalism- it's about enabling others by devaluing what makes up you personally. I can't even begin to understand why this is a thing, but it has been for about a century now...
se refieren a diversidad racial, en europa son diferentes culturas pero razas cercanas
You miss the point, sir
Exactly what I thought after watching this video. It's ridiculous and somewhat angering.
When I was born (US, 1959) diversity and inclusive meant honoring people from "all" nations in this country, be they originally from Croatia, Czechoslovakia or Canada. That has changed and expanded beyond white Europe; and remember, Irish & Italian immigrants were once as reviled and feared as the Syrian and Pakistani ons are today are today.
People always feel a need to have someone to look down on so they can feel better about themselves. All that changes are the reviled people's origins.
1:10 - hahahahaha of course Italians choose the state that looks like a boot!

It looks like a boot if you really try to look at it
Potato, How is that a square?!
AndroidDoctorr why a boot? I dun mean the state but, what's the Italian association with boots? Apologize for sounding stupid in advance :/
"more diverse" you mean more hispanic, right?
Justin Noker I was gonna say, the whole map says Mexico, that’s not diverse at all
Justin Noker yea lmao
Jim Jaimes Cortez the map clearly showed Mexico
Justin Noker absolutely lol
That kinda happens when you already here you know?

@Jack you dumb or what????
Are you meaning to tell me that the 2010 map which is almost exclusively filled with Mexicans is more diverse than the previous maps?
shima He's saying that as a whole, the country was more diverse. Not the map shown.
For liberals less white people means more diverse. It is their logic.
It's not about states filled with mexicans (or the majority of this or that population), it's the kind of *migration* that was predominant.
HediumS Although I agree with you if I just look at it from the surface, if you understood, then you'd realize the truth.
Immigrants were very numerous, however Mexican immigration capped and claimed many states. So even thought it wasn't 'diverse' in the amount of countries immigrated from, it was diverse in the overall amount
***** Neo Nazi is very close to how Nazi's viewed people. Radical Liberalism is very close to the Nazi form of government.
ok it's not me that there seems to be a crazy amount of Mexicans
+pealfaro ooo actually most Mexicans are mixed
People tell me it's the same thing

How is it diverse if 75% are from one country
The country will be diverse if most immigrants come fom non-white countries, which is the case.
Right because if 75% of immigrants are not white that’s diversity
Most are white
diversity was not defined by numbers or statistics of Race is defined by implowence of culture
Black. Latinos. and Asians dominated the pop culture in US not to mention that whites are made up of British.Irish.German.Swedes.Italian Spanish. French and many more.
Mike LaBarge you’re joking right
Yeah, lots of Germans in our Midwest here.
I live in Iowa and i agree, 60% of the people i know are german ancestries. We aso got a lotta Sweeds and Norwegians
@@neonflashsparkotron5435 The same can be said about South Dakota, but there's more Native American ancestry here.
yeah, but now theres more and more mexicans coming here but im just wondering why in such a cold place compared to mexico
@@akidoesrandomthings9125 The have established Cultural communities in the US. Chain Migration also plays a big part- would you go somewhere completely new or would you go somewhere where you knew they spoke your native language, ate your same foods, etc? Also, they go where there are employment opportunities - most Americans don't want to do backbreaking work (agricultural industry, service industry) for minimum wage.
Largest ethnic white group, more so than the WASPs.
tfw he said diversity when legit the entire us map said mexico on it
latinx? lol
+VanChichaRooney Latino+Lynx = Latinx
Diversity = anti white
my thoughts exactly, that is the EXACT opposite of diverse.
I know right 😂😂
Germans, Italians, Irish, British, Scandinavians, Russians, Canadians ect. Not diverse
Overwealming Mexican majority with, and I quote, "only five white majority." Yes diverse
Nice.
Who's making the rules about diversity being good and only certain types of diversity anyway.
Europeans: White, Mexicans: Hispanics. Do you see now why he said it was diverse?
Whites are diverse!
The liberal agenda is making the rules.
C Morgan Hispanic is not a race tho. It's a cultural/linguistic category. Argentina and Mexico are both Hispanic, even though Argentina is a pretty white country, while Mexico is predominantly mix raced.
The red from the Mexican flag means "Union between indigenous peoples and European " you don't think Mexico is diverse ? We had our first black Indian president in 1829 Vicente Guerrero
LOL is not more diverse, just more mexican. Germans, Italians, Irish, British, Scandinavians, Russians, Canadians ect. was not diverse, but mexicans everywhere is. That's logic 2018 for you.
Avalon 118 you've never been in Oregon for sure
Avalon 118 you've just confirmed that you've never been in Oregon and let's say Portland
There are many Russians in Portland which are well integrated and not noticeable as others states. Ukrainians are basically Southern Russians and not so different abroad.
@Savage Canadian96
_Quit playing dumb_
i mean yeah? racially speaking all the countries you listed look the same. majority white. mexico isint like that.
"We can see why America is quickly becoming so diverse"
*map showing almost entirely Mexican immigrants*
Mexican immigration has plummeted in recent years, bit Chinese, Indian, and central American immigration has been rising
@@joelawrence3954
has "plummeted" is actually incorrect.
What they don't tell you is the unreported mexicans coming in. Trust me. I live in Texas and travel to the border a lot. They are still coming in large numbers. Just sit back and enjoy our reconquista.
ps: it would benefit if you start learning our language.
Austin Henning first of all not all mexicans are brown, there are white mexicans, Afro mexicans, of course brown mexicans, even Asian mexicans!Also, diversity means different nationalities, ethnicities, religions, etc
@Max Ayotlan They speak spanish too
The point is that Mexican immigrants weren't coming in large numbers until the 1990s to 2000s, meaning the American population as a whole became more diverse compared to in previous decades where most immigrants were coming from northwestern Europe.
Why didn't you start at 1840, because that's when the Irish famine happened.
Perfect Minimalist depends on who you ask.
America is basically a people of immigrants
Perfect Minimalist That is true the town that the food was sent too in Ireland was Drogheda. The town crest is now the star and crest.
Preston Garvey At 1850 America reached its current size
Dave Long That wasn't even remotely humorous
That is a lot of Mexicans

My ancestors immigrated from Norway to New York in 1850 via a 14 week long steamboat journey. Then they went to Illinois, built hand carts, then walked across the plains to Utah, pushing all their possessions in a handcart. My family still lives in Utah 150 years later. So grateful they made this journey and provided me a good life here in the U.S.
Wait Norway have a higher life standard than the US, the quality of life in Norway is massive compared to the US hahahaha.
@@cris4529 lol their taxes in Norway is pretty high to everyone, even for low income earner. Not to mention they have immigrants problems now.
@@cris4529 In 1850, Norway was poor and had lot's of droughts with not enough arable land. Most of the population back then were just farmers, so they had nothing to do but move.
Rebecca, life in Norway is good n peaceful than other countries...at least that's my experience.
You probably mean 4 week long boat journey… Not 14 weeks
Nobody:
Italy in the 90's:
*Thank you and good bye*
I love how apparently the US only became "diverse" in the 90s, after it had experienced immigration from a huge variety of European ethnic groups for over a century, and even though from 1990 onward immigration to the US was dominated by a single country...
That "variety" is Whites. Not Mexcians. Not Africans. Not Chinese.
It was already diverse before hand with Germans English Irish Italian polish etc.
thank you! I was getting confused and then got pissed off when I realised what he meant. Saying it s gettting "more diverse" as mexicans become massive majority? How is one country make it more diverse?
I am not even white but it does not seem by your map that the USA is becoming more diverse....it seems the USA is becoming more Mexican.
That is kinda true, like you have a good point soon america wont be america it will be Mexica
more mexican doesn't mean more diverse
TheCatLord having more Mexicans doesn’t mean more diverse
TheCatLord dude ur an idiot ur just replacing the majority and becoming the majority that makes it less diverse because the country is all becoming Mexican, but I’m assuming ur mexican and cant understand english
Kevin Machado America a continent
Amazing propaganda. Mexico is top in almost every state and you say "diverse" wtf.
mexicans are a very diverse people too our northern states have a lot of white skinned mexicans and out southern states have the indigenous people who still speak their ancient language plus not to mention the chinese immigration that took place in mexico and carribean immigration, i urge you to get more information on mexico
Hispanics are diverse smh
Only 9% of Mexicans are considered full white thats nothing
Don't worry, News flash! Current immigrants are not from Mexico.
Rat Face Truth is latinos are a mixed bag of genes. Can’t lump them all as “brown” or whatever trash identity politics make up
so diversity is when white people arent there ?
The Map of 2010s didnt look so diverse to me, they only have mexicans and central ameircans .tho for me 1950s look hella diverse with Sweds, Italians, Greeks, Chinese, Brits, Norwegians, Poles, Russians and Canadians everywhere
Jack McCabe american isnt a actual ethnicity you silly booger
Jack McCabe Meh im lazy, I dont wanna go into a argument cuz ur i didnt use PC words to not offend ‘Oppressed Minorities’
The ethnicities never died.. If you mean their culture died that's because in the 1950s the goverment wanted to "americanize" everyone. And tbh it seems like younger mexicans won't carry on their family traditions at least around where I live.
Jack McCabe is that a bad thing? It just means that the white americans are very good at integrating.
KILLAZFLYING 2NITE/ FASHISTMEKZICAN exactly
How is it diverse if they're almost all Mexican
NiftyTheLynx liberal logic
In my state everyone is not almost all Mexican. Neither in my bordering neighboring states. The “whites” are not just “whites” they are European and in the states surrounding my state of residence they are the majority although they derive from different nationalities- Canadian, Italian, Irish, Swedish, French, German, etc. I could go on and on. Mexicans are expanding at a faster rate and the map shows this within minorities not majorities. Let us not forget about African countries as well. Somalia, Nigeria, Ghana, Eritrea (barely became independent in ‘92, ), Ethiopia and many more. Also, people from what we were taught to be Asia, Laos, Vietnam, China, Japan, Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines etc. It looks pretty diverse to me in inclusion of nationalities, but not plentiful in terms of numbers because they are minorities after all. The diversity is being acknowledged in the video because at first it was diverse but only between people of European ancestry and then the diversity grew exponentially to include different continents.
That is my interpretation, but in social studies we were always taught to be cautious with maps that could be misleading. I think you are interpreting the Mexican shaded states as Mexicans being the majority within each state which is untrue. They may be the majority of minorities, but even then another minority may be behind the Mexican minority by a few million, but they are still present and growing along with Mexican minority.
Mexican is not a race you need to get out of your bubble.
NiftyTheLynx. Because other than no brain loser lib'tards" their free demOcrap' voters!!
NiftyTheLynx 😅😂😂"
How does having like 100% more Mexican immigrants than any other group diverse
Liberal logic
The Jukes Mexico itself is diverse had you ever wonder why there are light and darker Mexicans actually it's just like saying all Americans eat cheeseburgers for dinner while you have more options
The Jukes Watch the video again, but pretend that Europe was a country. The fact is Europeans are way more similar to each other than the vastly multicultural and interracial communities of Mexico, it's unfair to mark them as being one country but separate all the whites into distinct boxes that are almost identical. Treating all these western Europeans as completely different people despite how they're basically the same culture only chronicles our Eurocentrism as we ignorantly generalize all Mexicans as "Mexican" while giving ourselves 15 different boxes for white people.
"100% more Mexican immigrants than any other group"
Incorrect. Less than half of immigrants are Mexican. A larger percentage come from Asia. You didn't listen when he explained what the map is showing...
AndroidDoctorr they only here what they want man it's obvious based on the current situation the U.S. is in...

For the people not knowing the difference:
-hispanics are people who speak spanish
-latinos are the poeple who speak a romace language in the americas
Both of them are neither races nor ethnicities
I thought the hispanic = Mexico and Cuba, latinos = other country like Columbia, Brazil, Panama and etc
So the only outliers here are Brazil who’s Latino but not Hispanic. And Spain, who’s Hispanic but not Latino.
@@brennengrimes also the haitians, which are latinos but not hispanics and the franco canadians
Italian is a Romance language. It is commonly heard in Argentina. Italians are not called Latinos. Nor are Romanians who speak Romanian, a Romance language.

"Parts where its not needed". hahahahahahahahahah
ocast evo lol due to natural barriers yea
go back to africa
Politics aside, I'm still not sure how the US is becoming more diverse in 2010 with Mexicans being the highest number of immigrants in 3/4 of the states.
Ruslan Volkonsky it was a lot of white people for a long time and this is the largest non white population to come to America since slavery.
Ben Grosz and it's about to stop.
i thought it was silly -- shoving propaganda down one's throats --- to show a MAP (almost) ALL MEXICO and state something about it being more diverse.
NO ... actually, it looks like it is turning into Mexico!
FreakShow91 you might of done nothing wrong but your ancestors did. When you talk about being proud to be white it sounds creepy... even non racist white people, would like diversity but it seems theres no problem when the majority is white
By diverse they mean less White.
We were more diverse in the 50s.
Go back to Europe
Cuba is majority white, speaking Spanish doesn't turn you into a Martian.
MegaWarlus THANK YOU, some people think that just because a white person speaks spanish from a Latin country that makes them non white. People don’t realize that there are white and black hispanics.
Cubans are the majority of the black race like most of the Caribbean countries where there is a lot of Afro-descendant because the English, French and Spanish powers used those islands to sell esclaves
Cuba is a kind of "mulato" country.
@@emmanuelake421 Thank you for stating real facts
When I think of Cuba I think of Celia Cruz.
Diverse = All Mexican
Diverse = anything but european
Almost all Mexicans are basically a mix of white (European) and mesoamerican
They all assimilate yet you have so many gang shootings you actually have more deaths than countries that are officially at war some asimilation
kissmiss629 haha you mean removing all life from the Americas? Did you even think that trough?
Pretty sure all cultures are barbaric or have been barbaric at some point so your point is invalid and quite stupid
Mexican is not a race you need to get out of your bubble.
The War on Drugs - that's why immigration from Mexico has gotten so high. Crime in Mexico has been increasing ever since the early 70's, and as this shows, so has Mexican immigration to the US. People are trying to escape the violence and poverty. Even spending a solid week crossing the desert to face millions of Trump supporters for minimum wage or lower is better than staying in Mexico for many people, and when you're that poor and desperate, it's impossible to go legally.
AndroidDoctorr actually the main reason Mexicanos started coming to the US is because of NAFTA and the deal that let Monsanto rob local Mexicano farmers of being able to support themselves by introducing the agroindustry.
AndroidDoctorr, well, maybe that's the info you got, the truth is that SOME Mexicans go to the U.S to work, when they get paid (in dollars) they send the money to their family in Mexico, then it gets transformed (in Mexican pesos) and that's when the family gets real money, the security in Mexico is real good, if you're a normal person, and you never have done anything "bad" no one will do you anything, you see that many people in Mexico gets killed, yeah, it's true, but it's because they were in some kind of business and they were in deb't with important people, that's why they get killed, if you are a normal person, you don't get killed, Lol and also, you would never see a shot on a school, or an airport, because the people that kills other people, just kill the ones that are "bad" any innocent person gets killed :P
well mexican minimum wage is 4.25 dollars a day
so yea americans win more in a hour than mexicans in a day
they leave Mexico because make money in the US its very easy to the average mexicans,they can be rich with the common salarium of the US when they come back to Mexico
I don't think people understand the difference between race and ethnicity; "not-diverse" under the race scope is true, but having a plethora of ethnicities (e.g., Italians, Irish, Germans. etc.) has been a key trait of America's core functionality.
Except Italians

@Seb 96 I never said i was of native descent i know i have mostly spanish/iberian blood also the spanish were the first to colonize the new world so we got here first before them english and german settlers. Also It was not just europeans who built the united states you are delusional. Chinese built railroads, irish did the mining, blacks did alot of hard labor, and mexicans were already in the southwest US as it was part of new spain. Plus did much of the work aswell. If the USA was a homogeneous white nation then China would have surpassed us as the first powerhouse a LONG time ago. America doesn't belong to the anglos get off your high horse.. its a nation of immigrants. The land of the free. If you believe it still belongs to the anglo then you should move back to germany.

Are you too stupid to understand what he's saying? Diversity is a policy forced on whites, and arrogant ethnic chauvenists like you get to bask in it. Diversity in California, and most places in the West, literally equates to "we need fewer white people." So don't complain when you go to a neighbourhood that's 'too white,' and admit that you're just as tribal as any other group on Earth (with the exception of whites, who are now being forced to be tribal because people have taken advantage of their empathy).
what?
kyle7412 there are Germans in Oaxaca, they need to come to America. Just imagine you see some blue eyed blonde man who looks Uber white and out of nowhere he starts talking like a paisano(I have an aunt who married a German man named Teo he's super cool)
Hispanics are diverse. There's white, black, asian, indigenous, and mixed race Hispanics. However, most of the immigrants come from Mexico and that's because of poverty. Those who experience poverty the most in Mexico is the indigenous population, so yeah, it's not really diverse if almost all who are immigrating to the U.S are indigenous.
"diverse" = mexican

I was thinking it looked pretty diverse before, you had Italians, Germans, British, Greeks, Russians, Scandinavians, and Irish. I however wouldn’t call only Mexico very diverse. You had all these people from the massive pot that is Europe, with hundreds of ethnicities and separate cultures, all coming and being brought to the US. Just Mexico and only Mexico will effectively replace everything and will inadvertently mean the US is less diverse. In 2050 Latinos are projected to become the majority of the nation. If the United States is majority Hispanic all coming from one country, does that really quantify as “diverse”?

Idk if you would really consider Canadians "immigrants." The difference between Canadians and Americans is so small that it seems silly.
Mysteryskatin Even if the cultures are almost similar,US and Canada are two different countries. So Canadians are technically immigrants.
micki seide Unless it's integrated into the U.S
The Canadians who immigrate speak english and even have a similar accent to that of north mid western americans. Its pretty hard to tell if they are immigrants
creely123 Seems like you guys don't know what immigrants mean...
Yes - they're technically immigrants. Everyone knows that.
It seems silly to refer to them as immigrants, though. Where I live I have exponentially more in common with a Canadian than I do with someone from Texas...
Interesting piece of history. I wonder if there's a similar video for EU.
Good idea, I'll look into making one.

David Rodriguez Well, The USA is a nation built by immigrants, but it's an important topic here in Europe too, especially nowadays
You should make an updated on for up to 2018
You don’t realize how is this affecting the US until you see an American with the name of Lorenzo that looks Chinese but is mixture between Mexican, German and Chinese and he can speak Spanish, English, and French. yep he’s my friend
Sounds like his family has an interesting background story.
So diverse (It's mostly Mexican)
Mexican is not a race you need to get out of your bubble.

Where did he say that it was a race?

True but if it's just Mexican immigrants coming in then by definition it less diverse then when it was Irish, Germans, Italians, Chinese, Russians. That's five different cultures/ethnicity's compared to one.
Its not diversity if all the immigrants are from one country. Build the wall.

You can't do anything about it. There are 35 million Mexican-Americans in this country. Meaning they are citizens and Trump can't do anything about that. So keep crying.

interesting vid, thanks for providing good but succint explanations instead of throwing stats in our face
Great video!
3/4 of the country coming from Mexico isn't my idea of diverse. (no offense to Mexicans).
Wow, you have a Trump photo, but you are not bad to Mexicans, finally someone with brain
compliment or insult?
DTrizzle 0120 Compliment.
Why is that? If there are more Mexicans then there is more variety of major ethnic groups in the US. It doesn't mean that there are fewer ethnic groups coming to America. Its just that, for the most part, Mexicans are immigrating the most.
You do know Mexicans are mix race.
Diverse? Looks like we are becoming Mexico!!!!
How is it that so many people coming from Mexico is even that diverse? Rather your source of immigrants is narrowminded and just from one single country. Goodness, shouldn't there be diversity like different people from other parts of Latin America at the bare minimum.
This is not a diverse America, it's an overrunning by Mexicans.
“This is where America gets so diverse” 90% states have most immigrants coming from Mexico
You're an immigrant.
Regarding the late 1800s, the modern Chinese flag makes it confusing

we are becoming more mexican not diverse
Me too
Obviously, but only because you're projected to be a majority. I'm willing to bet you'll cry racism whenever you see a white person exercising their power or being the majority, but if Latinos are in the majority, then they are pure and moral? At least admit you're greedy and taking advantage of white guilt. How exactly is a Mexican majority going to benefit the US? What grand plan do you have to improve what Europeans created?
azra 323 Mexicans are diverse.
In reality u could be mexican if you born in the states near mexico, when the treaty was done there was million of mexican living in the north

What a wonderful historical channel! . You are invited to the beautiful Laguna Beach 🙏👍❤️
I like how he only considers it diverse when non white people are moving here. There’s more to diversity than skin color. In fact it was probably more diverse back then since the immigrants we had came from a variety of different countries.
How is a great majority of migrants being Mexican indicate diversity?
If something, it's anything but diversity
Mexico is diverse you don’t find the dime kind of Mexicans in the north, center and south of Mexico, the north has more white Mexicans that can speak English, the center has a mixture with Spaniards and natives some can speak their native original language and some other languages and the south is mostly indigenous population

I am 70 years old and was born in Illinois. My great grandfather was born in San Antonio and his wife as well. 1830 and 1882 respectfully. I went to school and was asked to fill forms out describing our ethnicity. We as children were told to select white as our nationality. I am brown. I knew that I am not white and mentioned that to my teach who said that I have to mark white as my nationality because I was white. So much confusion there for me being so young. My parents did not understand this either but were told that this was fact. Now I am hearing that this was to make it as if there were more white people in the USA.
Funny how the less diverse the immigrant population becomes (all Mexico) the more diverse you say the country is.
MexicO is more diverse than what you think. The reason we don't get to see that diversity in the immigrant population is that most of the Mexicans who come here are the kind we need not the kind Donald Trump _wants_ .
I think you missed my point. You cannot have a room full of Mexicans and say "what a diverse crowd". It's just funny is all
Frank Davis you can not if the Mexicans you picture are brown, sitting in a cactus with a sombrero
Frank Davis I think YOU missed the point. A room full of Mexican citizens will have one thing in common: they will all be citizens of Mexico. In that sense, they will be all the same. But diversity isn't just about what passport you hold. America is far more than diverse than Japan, by far, and it's not because we have a lot of people who are not US citizens living here and Japan has less Japanese nationals living there.
You dig?
I actually don't understand your logic. I just don't think that if we had nothing but German immigrants here people would be calling it diverse. Diversity to me it doesn't mean the color of your skin. It simply means different kinds of people. So if you look at the earlier Maps there was a mix of Mexican Irish Italian Chinese and Greek. That to me is diverse. If the map was all Chinese it would not be diverse. If it was all Mexican it would not be diverse. If it was all Greek it would not be diverse. Perhaps we are stuck on the definition of diversity, " the states of being diverse; variety".
I think people maybe use diversity to describe a crowd that is not all white. I believe that's the context that he was using in the video. About if the video were about different professions of people coming here and the majority was Mexican but you had labourers doctors lawyers engineers stuff like that, then yes diverse. But the video was about immigration by country.
So that's why Trump wants to build a wall.
like the Wall between FRG and GDR?
SilverRain I always find it funny that America took over Mexican territories and are surprised it came with Mexicans. What did you think was gonna happen?
Jonathan Williams fair point, but the wall will require civil forfeiture as many own private lands between both country and that would require the u.s from taking property away from landowners.
SilverRain well, it's half the reason
To be honest guys, this was more of a joke than a realization

@Hispanic American the joke here was that YOU (Hispanic American) can make use of illegal immigration.
Got it?
Very good video. I didn't know the part about Canada.
It seems that since 1980, more diverse = more issues...
As a Mexican I can say that I feel that today. There is so much less diverse that in the first waves of immigrants.
Before the Mexicans, I saw many immigrants from Europe from different places, and that's is diversity. Mexicans are diverse in someway, but still I think that knew one will see it, as they believe that Mexicans are like the same everywhere. Mexico also has inmigrantes but from Spain mainly.
What I really wonder is from where these Mexicans come from. As I know that California gets many inmigrantes from Southern Mexico, meanwhile Texas historically had immigrant from Northeast Mexico. Northern Mexico have more things in Common with Texas culturally spoken, that it's southern neighbors. I mean If you see the history of Texas, you could find a similar idiosyncrasy from people native from these places.
interesting could this be why the California Mexicans are darker than the Texas Mexicans ?
@@The1ByTheSea Is a way to explain it, but the main changes are culturally in reality.

oh yeah. all the immigrants coming from Mexico. so diverse.
Stone Saathoff just you wait for the next wave of immigrants. I'll give you a clue; theyll be speaking Mandarin and Hindi and not Spanish. but Mexicans and Spanish will always remain in these lands, Because nothing says American like mexican culture.
Stone Saathoff actually us mexicans arent a racial group as seen by american pop culture, we are very genetically diverse, we have a huge diversity and is not suprice he said that about being more diverse
Stone Saathoff You have to understand Gringo, in Mexico, being Mexican is a nationality, not a one race ;) Hope that gives you a clue .... smh .....
Stone Saathoff Mexico is more diverse than the US
Mexico's diverse, but I doubt it's more diverse than the US, a country that made it a mission by 1965 to allow immigrants from essentially everywhere else it didn't allow before.
- 1930: Irish, Italians, Russians, Polish go away to Europe.

@Antifa Socialism TVYou dirty trailer dwellers.
When Filipinos low key feeling being Mexican, two langauges from Philippines (Ilokano and Tagalog) are most spoken in the state of Hawaii after English and Japanese.
I wish we still got more European/Slavic immigration. Germans, Poles, Irish, Russian and Swedish are fine people.
It'll be interesting to see who becomes the greatest sources of immigration over the next few decades. Right now, California (where I live) has been seeing an increase in Asian (Indian, Chinese, and Filipino) migrants. I wonder if that'll continue or if it will shift elsewhere over time
Just the video I was looking for
German, Dutch, French, English, Irish, Scottish, Finnish, Swedish, Polish, Russian. I may have missed a few, but that’s all the diversity this country needs.
You forgot Italian, but you're right. We've had enough "diversity" and need to build the wall and stop immigration.

How can it be considered the most diverse if it’s mostly Mexico?
for globalist and leftist garbage "diversity" means having fewer white people.
The funny thing is for many of these it’s arbitrary overall because some of the groups came in so little amounts. The south overall had little immigration so the numbers of those they did get didn’t affect much
1860: meh
2000: Diverse!
so diverse means mostly brown then huh? this is the problem.
MrMetalHead1100 Mexican is not a race, it's a nationality. There are white, mixed (the majority of Mexicans), native (brown), black and Asian Mexicans. The ones who come over to the states are usually the Mexicans with more native descent because usually lighter skin/white Mexicans have a much better lives in Mexico. There is still somewhat racism in Mexican society. But when Americans think about Mexicans, they think all of them are brown because those are the only ones who want to come to the US.
thank you for the lesson, but I was commenting on the guys definition of the word diversity. Its a little irritating that some people seem to think that diversity is basically the lack of white people. I grew up in a neighborhood that was mostly black and hispanic, and I can tell you, alot of people I knew in school thought that way, and it was frustrating. Thats the kind of thinking that makes so many white people defensive when it comes to immigration.
MrMetalHead1100 Got ya.
I think he meant that since there were so many Mexican people, they were actually able to create a visible and important change the ethnic demographics of the country. Hispanics in general have become the second largest ethnicity in the United States. So while there were many immigrants beforehand that were from other countries, there were comparatively small minorities. For example, Norwegian people immigrated to the United States it is true that there was more diversity. Diversity in ethnicity, language and culture for example. However, they didn't immigrate enough to cause a major and important demographic shift in the US. To embellish this example, Norwegian was not an important enough demographic for there to be a push for many Americans to learn Norwegian in High school. They are there but they aren't that many for them. So there is diversity but its overall impact is small compared to the broader Anglo-Saxon, and German majority. The Hispanic population and impact on diversity is not small by comparison. So because there are more Hispanic people there is more diversity.
We come in different shades not just brown. 😊
