@Vincent Drummond Migration is leaving a country to pursue opportunities in a different such a work or school. Immigration is usually fleeing persecution and seeking a better life. That's how it was explained to me but I may be wrong
Night and Day what you just explained is a refugee not an immigrant. An immigrant is someone who comes to another country with intentions in living in that country permanently
I remembered watching York Town and when Hamilton and Lafayette went "Immigrants, we get the job done!" I remembered shivering because DAMN IF THAT AINT THE TEA
@@robertacosta6687 then why are you all telling the locals that you are better and work" harder "(which is bullshit,locals work just as hard) IF THIS IS YOUR COUNTRY
Residente doesn't know that the territory where they plant the tree was of the US. Residente no sabe que el lugar donde plantaron el árbol era territorio estadounidense. Greetings from Argentina
For the people who don’t know Spanish the guys who rapped in Spanish in one verse he said that half of America is Mexican territory. It’s true. Thank you for this.
Ojberretta Berretta how ignorant are you? Mexicans are a mix of Europeans and indigenous people ( most notably the Aztecs). I have no idea where you got that they stole their land??? And yes, the majority of Mexicans today speak spanish because Mexico was under the spanish empire’s rule for about three centuries. Some indigenous languages are still spoken in Mexico such as Nahuatl, Yucatec Maya, and Mixtec although then number of people who can and do speak any of those languages amount to nowhere near the amount of people who speak Spanish. I think you’re confusing Mexico and the United States. 🤔
And this, ladies and gentlemen, is exactly why I’m studying immigration law. Thank you Lin Manuel Miranda for inspiring me to fight for my people in this country. You sir have impacted the lives of so many of us and I, like Hamilton himself, will write not only my way out of the shadows but I will wright OUR way out... From a first generation college student, daughter of both Mexican and Salvadorian immigrant parents, I say that it’s now my turn to give a voice to not only my people, but to all those who go unheard...
"Daughter of immigrant parents" means you're a citizen of this country and it's countrymen are your people. Not immigrants. Your statement is all reversed. Like your brain.
Nicole Song there's a tongue twister "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers" She's talking about how hard immigrants work. Basically, the owner of the pepper farm (Peter) claimed he picked the peppers but really he just underpaid an immigrant worker (Pablo) to pick them for him.
@Dave Ivancheck for someone who claims to know a lot about business, you're clearly very much not in the know of how much of what you consume is Mexican produce. LOL.
Cuando el cabrón dijo: "Hay que ser bien hijueputa, nosotros sembramos el árbol y ellos se comen la fruta" I was like, yesssss Rene, call them shots on these bitches!
I wonder if anyone caught the line “even if our bombs landed on them like the mayflower”… as a Native American, that hits hard. I’d also like to say the NO ONE is illegal on stolen land!
"Don't think I didn't see those tombstones." I started crying, because every time my family and I travel to Mexico to visit, we see countless tombstones on the side of the road.
It is sad to see something like that. People just will never understand the struggle of others and they close their hearts and borders and continue to call themselves “The land of the free” people need to look in the eyes of their ancestors and tell them “go back” they would have never existed if it wasn’t for them. Tan triste
Jody Lynna I understand you're sad. I'm just saying that the blood of our ancestors has already dried on their hands. Me? I don't have a trace of DNA of the murdered innocent on my hands. Listen, I'm tired of people kicking and screaming about me being a wolf because of my ancestors. It's just as racist. If you mean to judge me for something my ancestors supposedly done then you're absolutely horrid. No one should ever even be compensated either for slavery, because in the U.S it's illegal, and everyone who went through it has died. So no one felt that pain. *However.* Though I said that, I am avidly against Trump. Though I hate those who kick and scream over trivial things, this doesn't dispel the constant pain and suffering that immigrants often go through. Even so much as risking their lives to get to the other side. I was rooting for them this whole video, and I realized we're finally taking a stand against it. Though the pain is still prevalent, people are finally talking. Estoy muy contenta.
Riz Ahmed drops a couple of Star Wars references, 'Nah we don't play British Empire Strikes Back' and 'Galaxy far from your ignorance'. He is in Star Wars: Rogue One. Just noticed and I've heard this a bunch of times.
Phoenix Fire She got to collaborate with Tech N9ne some years ago. She's one of the top Femcess in the game alongside Dessa who's also in the Hamilton Mixtape.
That's a strong line there that not many people get it. It reference the tongue twister of "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers" and the spanish tongue twister "Pablo clavó un clavito". In thr english one, peter claims he picked the peppers. In the spanish one, Pablo is working driving nails. It's interesting how they linked Pablo working for someone and Peter underpaying him to work for him
@@eatmypanart Oh, so I got it right then? I thought that I might mishear the line. Well, now I know that it's really a reference to the tounge twister. Thanks for your comment
Perdón, Why bash someone for being fluent in music? Apparently you dont understand what he's saying,its ok you dont really have to..unless your gonna comment. Theres No need to understand the words to understand the feelings....there is lots of struggle, pain and intensity in this song coming From all walks of immigration. Its not just hispanics that immigrate to the states. Russians, Ethiopians,Iranians,Bharatiya (indians), Palestinians, Israeli, Jamaicas, Chinese, Japanese , african, Filipino or even Canadian. Yes thats right canadian....so... dont go showing your ass because an outside FINALLY gets the struggle. AFTER YEARS, one person who isn't spanish speaking understood the message.......but tal vez no se.....😐😑😐
"Sin pasaporte Americano porque la mitad de gringolandia es terreno mexicano" Dude, that got me chills. So damn real. Mexico used to be bigger, just as they song says, half of the USA territory was Mexico's.
@Geto Daco Yeah, that's not true. President Polk claimed that Mexico attacked U.S forces on U.S. territory without any proof. Abraham Lincoln was known at the time for insisting that the president say the exact spot where it happened. They never presented proof, and it turns out the scuffle actually happened on disputed territory. But James K. Polk was an avid believer in manifest destiny, as it was popular at the time. It's not out the question that he purposefully lied to justify war with Mexico in 1847. Don't spread lies, especially those born of nationalist rhetoric.
no porque mexico perdio la guerra sino los espanoles podran decir mexico es de espanca entonces ya que fueron ellos que ocuparon esa tierra y no los aztecas@Jan Reyes
Born in México, to Mexican parents. I came to Canadá when I was nine years old. When I was eighteen, I had the possibility of renouncing my Mexican citizenship to become Canadian. My friends wanted me to renounce it. My parents told me it was up to me. I’m Mexican-Canadian. I have two passports. I was born in México, I am an immigrant and I come from parents who are immigrants. I ain’t gonna forget that.
Dave Ivancheck you know the original Americans were immigrants right? You seem very patriotic about your country, why can’t other people that came from different countries. Americans get a lot of benefits from immigrants, because they use them. Immigrants have to work harder than Americans and usually paid less. That’s why Americans should appreciate immigrants and letting them express themselves. This is from an American

Here I am sitting, currently in one of the U.S's biggest bases. This song spoke to me on such an emotional level making me think about my dad, who himself came illegally and met my mom. He worked day in and day out sometimes only seeing my mom for a meal and then leaving again. He got his papers and now is a proud US citizen working for the U.S government. I'm sitting here in this office listening to this song and just started crying. I'm so thankful to have been raised by both my mother and father who have worked day in and day out to provide for me. This is truly one of those songs that just touches the heart.

nun chuck master daddy Try to comprehend his words instead of letting your feeling take over. It only make's you look like a baby who is still living in a bubble.
soflo23 Many illegal immigrants come here for a better life, because of things happening in their country. Imagine coming to an unknown place with nothing and a language you don't even understand but you still work hard and sometimes harder than the people that live in America. My grandma left my mom and my uncle behind, and came with nothing just to work and build a better life for her family. If you don't know a person's situation, don't say whether or not someone deserves to get deported or not.
I understand where you are coming from my mother came here illegally and my parents both held down two jobs never asking for any government assistant because they feared being caught and deported. I remember at 5 years old knowing who ICE was and what they did. I saw my parents being mistreated and called “wetbacks” because they weren’t legal or didn’t know English. And yet they still pushed me to go after my dreams. and thanks to them I now work as a lawyer and yes thanks to me a lot of people
My parents are immigrants. My mom has her own buisness, and my dad is a nurse. He also does cancer procedures and helps patients who speak Russian. Immigrants, they get the job done.

As an immigrant the line “Metimos la casa completa en una maleta” (we packed our whole house in one suitcase) hit home sooo hard and gave me chills. Brought back memories. Love this song.
I love how this is a throwback to the beginning of hip hop as a social commentary on political injustice. This is true Hip Hop, it has a message, it's cadence and rhythm is impeccable and, not to mention, it's a great song.
"And it's really astonishing how a country founded by immigrants, immigrant has somehow become a bad word." Damn that hit me hard.. EDIT: Please no arguments in the reply section. I respect and love all.
America was founded by settlers and conquerors not immigrants. There was no country before America to immigrate to. People conquered and settled the land, they didn't immigrate to it.
Nicholas Lee There was not a European recognized ‘country’, but land that had names and territories from the native people who were there first. Europeans immigrated to the land and colonized the people living there.
@@keroihmels6463 So the Europeans crossed defined borders into states with defined laws and institutions to accept immigrants with the purpose of living in said nations? Nope. There were no defined borders, immigration laws, or modern institutions. Furthermore the Europeans didn't want to live under a native American nation. They *conquered* and settled the land. The very first Americans were explorers, conquerers, and settlers. Not immigrants.
@@ИванИванович69420 Wow... apparently history is your mind is so different... All these settlers you were talking about were immigrants who left Europe, later on slaves and then indentured servants and bonds men. Please do not change history to push your own agenda....

That's right My type some white people usually hire immigrants to farm or clean and do their business and they claim they did the work and underpay immigrants it's saying Peter claimed he picked the peppers but in reality he just underpaid an immigrant to pick them

LMAO that might be the case today, but years ago they were not. wfae.org/post/what-makes-sleeping-mexican-so-divisive Mexicans actually fought the stereotype and changed it over time but trust me back in the day they were thought of as lazy. But back then a lot of white still did manual labor...
Ok but just because that was the stereotype doesn't mean it was ever true. Its unclear if you are advocating for that view or if you're just pointing out that that used to be the stereotype (and that it was unfairly a stereotype). If the former, then you clearly missed the whole point of this song.. immigrants are pretty much always grinding. But yes, of course for much of american history we've demonized immigrants.
Snow was fuckin lit! That last rapper though... his lyrics were in Spanish but they were the deepest shit in this song. "we are the ones who cross, come to look for the gold that was stolen (from us)...with a pick, a shovel, a rake, we built you a castle..."
You realize what "diversity" means? It means a variety of difference. Just being black and latino isn't diverse, it's pretty homogeneous. And diversity is more than just race, you know.
buchner funnel the difference, you idiot, is that America has a looot of different races residing in it. There are more POC than whites in DC and also in NYC and many other cities. But POC get so little representation and everything is whitewashed there, giving a misguided view. In India, it is usually like 95% Indians in every state and city so white people don't need to be included in our shows to correctly represent our country. Same for most Asian countries. To correctly represent America, whites, blacks, latinos and all the other races have to be included. Also, I'm Indian so I know what I'm talking about when it concerns my country.
Such a powerful message! I hope people see this and realize how hard immigrants work and how refugees suffer. Everybody deserves a chance! "America's ghost writers, the credits only borrowed"
"Marquis de Lafayette came to America illegally, against the rules of the king, disguised as a pregnant woman." Ladies and Gentlemen, He too was an illegal immigrant.
Michael VII Bécquer honey you won’t get respect until you deserve it. I don’t care if you live in the dumpster, a mansion, or the White House, you won’t get respect until you earn it.
Michael VII Bécquer looks like someone needs to actually go to school. Also why would I say that I am white as fuck if I’m not? What’s the point of pretending to be something I’m not? I’ve got more confidence in my little finger than you have in your entire body. If you ever want to get somewhere in life try to act like an adult rather than a toddler throwing a temper tantrum. No one wants a child working for them when they could have a competent adult work for them instead. Take the stick out of your ass and learn to act your age. I’m willing to bet that if you take one of those DNA tests you’d find that you aren’t nearly as white as you think you are. I am also willing to bet that if we were face to face, you wouldn’t be half as brash as you are being right now.
I’m not an immigrant, but I believe that they need to stop getting this unneeded hatred and fear. Unless they are wielding a weapon and threatening it at you, you shouldn’t be scared. Hey, immigrants, they get the job done!

I had an immigrant friend from Ghana. He worked overtime when no one else wanted to. He had 6000 dollars saved up by 7 months of just being here. I was shocked and said "how did you do that you just got here" lol. I started working overtime and I partly learned because of him. Today I have 14,000 saved. He showed me how to take every oppurtunity for overtime. I have other countless stories from other people including my own family.
Only on the Central Pacific. The Union Pacific tracks were laid by Irish. And both groups wouldn't have a prosperous country to come to if the White Anglo Saxon Protestants hadn't founded this great nation.
Monsieur Bleu Pen it was hardly prosperous for immigrants, and still isn’t. Don’t claim this country to be great when it’s very clearly a third world country with a lot of money.
As a daughter of immigrants this.... This is my past, my life, my heritage. People don't give a thought about us We work so hard for this, to get here To get a better life for our family, friends And now it feels like it was all for nothing Our hard work was for nothing. But now this show our side of the story. And I hate when people assume things and just think it's true. We are good people, trying to do good for our family and our life. And no one sees that, they just people "stealing jobs" or "bad people" But this song... I appreciate this, thank you💖 "Immigrants, we get the job done" OMG people actually liked my comment💖 Thank you🖤

It's amazing how in a song of 5 min they resumed the daily life of hundred or even million of immigrants in the actual time. I my country, Chile (which become the perfect place for lots of immigrants) the discrimination is huge. Lots of immigrants are bullied and blamed because "they are making our community sick" which is not true. Is disgusting to see all that discrimination to persons looking for a better life...the thing that they don't know is that they make the hard job because the rich doesn't want to get dirty. Immigrants, we get the job done Chile. Deberian tenerlo en claro
as a child of immigrants ,and getting to see the shit my parents went through to provide me with what they thought was the best,this song speaks to me deep.

America is the self proclaimed melting pot. She is so special because EVERYONE who lives here came from somewhere else. Even Native Americans came across on the Bering Straight land-bridge during the last Ice Age. We are the product of humanity coming together despite differences and working so that everyone has equal opportunity to build a life with their own two hands. That is my America. Unfortunately, Nationalism has turned to Nativism for so many of my countrymen. Those who came from other places are scorned for "stealing" our jobs, despite the concept that we are all from elsewhere at some point in our genetic history. What we need to do as a nation, is come together under Old Glory, and fight to make this a place where we build an overarching, unique culture from ALL the contributions of others and their heritage. We need to see our Immigrants as future Americans or as allies, not as enemies to be feared. That is how America can fix herself. That is how we will be what we set out to be. A land where all men (nowadays referring to Mankind, not just male humans) are seen as being created equal. Where they are all entitled to the right to seek their own way, and their own life. Liberty is a song written long ago, but it hasn't been shut off. We just need to crank the volume up again. Signed, -A Second Generation American.

I love how this video shows immigrants as hard working, and at many different levels from sweat shop workers to nurses and high skill workers. Bringing to light how immigrants work different levels instead of victimizing them all by saying they all are working in terrible conditions. It also combats the stigma that they are all lazy freeloaders that want to take advantage of the system. Both are common trips you see in the media.
Yo, shout out to that clock... in the beginning... that's the exact same clock my dad has, he's had it since I can remember (I'm 37). It's the clock I've heard day after day go off at 3am... he'll get up, get ready, and head to work... just so my sisters and I could enjoy the fruits of his and my mom's labor. Both came here illegally... one, now a US citizen, the other, is a US resident. Been in the US longer than Mexico... time, money, sweat, and sleep... that's what they have given to this country... they've definitely gone far.

The official immigration process is a freaking nightmare, I can't imagine what some people had to go through when they do it illegally. Massive respect for those who left the life knew just to start a better one for their families.
That's the point Mayuri. They don't want anyone to come otherwise they wouldn't be such a strong nation. They only want the ones willing to go through hell and work their way up, the best and the brightest. If they just let anyone in their country would go to shit.
Not really, he raps about how most of the southwest was originally Mexico's, which we won from the Mexican-American War along with the war between Texas and Mexico, and how Mexicans are just coming back to claim the "gold stolen" look, it was far-fetched when the Zimmerman telegram was sent and it's far-fetched now.
+BlackRaptorJesus 115 If you know anything really you know those wars were just fucking bullshit excuses to go steal the land just like almost every fucking war the US has been in...
Yeah sure, but him rapping about Mexican land being "stolen" is like French guy rapping about how Germany stole land during the Napoleonic wars, just isn't relevant to the situation of an immigrant who comes to a better country to strike it rich.
Every now and then I come back to watch this video just to remember to never kneel in front of the oppressor. We, immigrants and sons and daughters of immigrants, have resistance in our blood. Keep fighting.
While I agree, most people hate immigration because of the _illegal immagration_ which brings.. well not the best people in the land of the free. If there was an easier way to move, such a thing wouldn't happen

Because they failed their American History classes in GRADE SCHOOL and couldn't tell the difference between Washington and Hamilton or Franklin and Jefferson if they all pulled a Lazarus in front of them. In other words, they can't find their own assholes with both hands in the dark!
Esto es precioso. Simplemente precioso. Para todos los xenófobos que abusan, critican y hablan de que "los inmigrantes les quitan su trabajo" y demás estupideces, piensen "¿cómo de mal deben estar las cosas en la tierra que los vió nacer para que estas personas se juegan la vida y lo dejen todo atrás para intentar construirse una vida aguantando sus insultos y su odio?". En pleno siglo XXI debería ser sabido por todos que la inmensa mayoría de las naciones actuales fueron fundadas y levantadas por inmigrantes, así que muestren respeto a esta gente. No les quieren quitar "su país", quieren construir uno mejor junto a ustedes. Acepten esa ayuda.

Me too Space Mermaid. For all of you insulting this and why people like it; I want you to know that if you spend your life heckling other people’s views and work, you will get nowhere in life. Also, no reasoning for things or media consumed can be accurately linked with sexual orientation. But how would you know, because you spend your life insulting people from a computer. It’s the truth. This video says the truth. I LOVE Snow’s line and I’m a HUGE Hamilton fan. I also like Snow a lot. “Peter Piper said he picked them but he just underpaid Pablo"
Also, your views are influenced by politics who tackle moral problems with political “solutions”. To prove my point the first person insulting Space Mermaid was literally named “THE DARK NIGHT REPUBLICAN”. Makes sense how you link a comment that you don’t like with a sexual orientation you don’t like. Which completely confuses me because it doesn’t change anything or make a person incompetent.

@Vincent Drummond lolol... another word for a migrant is an immigrant. You're splitting hairs about the wrong thing.
@Vincent Drummond Okkkay Tim.
@Vincent Drummond Migration is leaving a country to pursue opportunities in a different such a work or school. Immigration is usually fleeing persecution and seeking a better life. That's how it was explained to me but I may be wrong
Night and Day what you just explained is a refugee not an immigrant. An immigrant is someone who comes to another country with intentions in living in that country permanently

Ojberretta Berretta how ignorant are you? Mexicans are a mix of Europeans and indigenous people ( most notably the Aztecs). I have no idea where you got that they stole their land??? And yes, the majority of Mexicans today speak spanish because Mexico was under the spanish empire’s rule for about three centuries. Some indigenous languages are still spoken in Mexico such as Nahuatl, Yucatec Maya, and Mixtec although then number of people who can and do speak any of those languages amount to nowhere near the amount of people who speak Spanish. I think you’re confusing Mexico and the United States. 🤔

"Peter Piper claimed he picked them, he just underpaid Pablo" has to be one of the best lyrics I've heard in a long goddamn time.
I don't understand the reference though.
Nicole Song there's a tongue twister "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers" She's talking about how hard immigrants work. Basically, the owner of the pepper farm (Peter) claimed he picked the peppers but really he just underpaid an immigrant worker (Pablo) to pick them for him.
Snow tha product is beast at her lyrics! 😎
honkngoose It also refers to the Spanish tongue twister: “Pablito clavó un clavito, ¿qué clase de clavito clavó Pablito?”.
@Dave Ivancheck for someone who claims to know a lot about business, you're clearly very much not in the know of how much of what you consume is Mexican produce. LOL.

“Sin pasaporte estadounidense, porque la mitad del territorio es mexicano”. Auch.
I wonder if anyone caught the line “even if our bombs landed on them like the mayflower”… as a Native American, that hits hard. I’d also like to say the NO ONE is illegal on stolen land!

"Don't think I didn't see those tombstones."
I started crying, because every time my family and I travel to Mexico to visit, we see countless tombstones on the side of the road.
then that's an admission their native homes are shitholes
It is sad to see something like that. People just will never understand the struggle of others and they close their hearts and borders and continue to call themselves “The land of the free” people need to look in the eyes of their ancestors and tell them “go back” they would have never existed if it wasn’t for them. Tan triste
Jody Lynna I understand you're sad. I'm just saying that the blood of our ancestors has already dried on their hands. Me? I don't have a trace of DNA of the murdered innocent on my hands.
Listen, I'm tired of people kicking and screaming about me being a wolf because of my ancestors. It's just as racist. If you mean to judge me for something my ancestors supposedly done then you're absolutely horrid. No one should ever even be compensated either for slavery, because in the U.S it's illegal, and everyone who went through it has died. So no one felt that pain.
*However.*
Though I said that, I am avidly against Trump. Though I hate those who kick and scream over trivial things, this doesn't dispel the constant pain and suffering that immigrants often go through. Even so much as risking their lives to get to the other side.
I was rooting for them this whole video, and I realized we're finally taking a stand against it. Though the pain is still prevalent, people are finally talking.

"Peter Piper claimed he picked 'em, he just underpaid Pablo."
That's a strong line there that not many people get it. It reference the tongue twister of "Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers" and the spanish tongue twister "Pablo clavó un clavito". In thr english one, peter claims he picked the peppers. In the spanish one, Pablo is working driving nails. It's interesting how they linked Pablo working for someone and Peter underpaying him to work for him

Dude, that got me chills. So damn real. Mexico used to be bigger, just as they song says, half of the USA territory was Mexico's.
Soy mexicana y estoy orgullosa
@Geto Daco Yeah, that's not true. President Polk claimed that Mexico attacked U.S forces on U.S. territory without any proof. Abraham Lincoln was known at the time for insisting that the president say the exact spot where it happened. They never presented proof, and it turns out the scuffle actually happened on disputed territory. But James K. Polk was an avid believer in manifest destiny, as it was popular at the time. It's not out the question that he purposefully lied to justify war with Mexico in 1847. Don't spread lies, especially those born of nationalist rhetoric.
Yup

Dave Ivancheck you know the original Americans were immigrants right? You seem very patriotic about your country, why can’t other people that came from different countries. Americans get a lot of benefits from immigrants, because they use them. Immigrants have to work harder than Americans and usually paid less. That’s why Americans should appreciate immigrants and letting them express themselves. This is from an American

soflo23 Many illegal immigrants come here for a better life, because of things happening in their country. Imagine coming to an unknown place with nothing and a language you don't even understand but you still work hard and sometimes harder than the people that live in America. My grandma left my mom and my uncle behind, and came with nothing just to work and build a better life for her family. If you don't know a person's situation, don't say whether or not someone deserves to get deported or not.
I understand where you are coming from my mother came here illegally and my parents both held down two jobs never asking for any government assistant because they feared being caught and deported. I remember at 5 years old knowing who ICE was and what they did. I saw my parents being mistreated and called “wetbacks” because they weren’t legal or didn’t know English. And yet they still pushed me to go after my dreams. and thanks to them I now work as a lawyer and yes thanks to me a lot of people

LMAO that might be the case today, but years ago they were not. wfae.org/post/what-makes-sleeping-mexican-so-divisive
Mexicans actually fought the stereotype and changed it over time but trust me back in the day they were thought of as lazy. But back then a lot of white still did manual labor...
Ok but just because that was the stereotype doesn't mean it was ever true. Its unclear if you are advocating for that view or if you're just pointing out that that used to be the stereotype (and that it was unfairly a stereotype). If the former, then you clearly missed the whole point of this song.. immigrants are pretty much always grinding. But yes, of course for much of american history we've demonized immigrants.

You realize what "diversity" means? It means a variety of difference. Just being black and latino isn't diverse, it's pretty homogeneous.
And diversity is more than just race, you know.
+Mohamed Ali
Wow, he's 400+ years old? I didn't know that's possible
buchner funnel the difference, you idiot, is that America has a looot of different races residing in it. There are more POC than whites in DC and also in NYC and many other cities. But POC get so little representation and everything is whitewashed there, giving a misguided view. In India, it is usually like 95% Indians in every state and city so white people don't need to be included in our shows to correctly represent our country. Same for most Asian countries. To correctly represent America, whites, blacks, latinos and all the other races have to be included. Also, I'm Indian so I know what I'm talking about when it concerns my country.

"Marquis de Lafayette came to America illegally, against the rules of the king, disguised as a pregnant woman." Ladies and Gentlemen, He too was an illegal immigrant.
That's true. But he technically wasn't an immigrant because he wasn't planning to, and didn't, stay in America permanently.

Michael VII Bécquer honey you won’t get respect until you deserve it. I don’t care if you live in the dumpster, a mansion, or the White House, you won’t get respect until you earn it.
Michael VII Bécquer looks like someone needs to actually go to school. Also why would I say that I am white as fuck if I’m not? What’s the point of pretending to be something I’m not? I’ve got more confidence in my little finger than you have in your entire body. If you ever want to get somewhere in life try to act like an adult rather than a toddler throwing a temper tantrum. No one wants a child working for them when they could have a competent adult work for them instead. Take the stick out of your ass and learn to act your age. I’m willing to bet that if you take one of those DNA tests you’d find that you aren’t nearly as white as you think you are. I am also willing to bet that if we were face to face, you wouldn’t be half as brash as you are being right now.

I’m not an immigrant, but I believe that they need to stop getting this unneeded hatred and fear. Unless they are wielding a weapon and threatening it at you, you shouldn’t be scared.
Hey, immigrants, they get the job done!
I think you should just generally be scared of people pointing weapons at you, regardless of immigration status.

Done by the people that get ignored

As the only rapper or color to ever have existed who is so oppressed by colonization that I can't even call out Caucasian provelefe (even though my parents want and need me to), ion wanna see any Caucasian colonizers using the words "ain't" or attempting to be rappers.
Really? Y'all ain't got no shame.
I had an immigrant friend from Ghana. He worked overtime when no one else wanted to. He had 6000 dollars saved up by 7 months of just being here. I was shocked and said "how did you do that you just got here" lol. I started working overtime and I partly learned because of him. Today I have 14,000 saved. He showed me how to take every oppurtunity for overtime. I have other countless stories from other people including my own family.
It should be noted that the train tracks were originally laid by Chinese immigrants.
Tina Dancer and most of my ancestors got blown up in the process.
Only on the Central Pacific. The Union Pacific tracks were laid by Irish. And both groups wouldn't have a prosperous country to come to if the White Anglo Saxon Protestants hadn't founded this great nation.
And the Irish were brought to pick tobacco in the Caribbean
Monsieur Bleu Pen it was hardly prosperous for immigrants, and still isn’t. Don’t claim this country to be great when it’s very clearly a third world country with a lot of money.
Remember Hamilton is focused on an immigrant
As a daughter of immigrants this....
This is my past, my life, my heritage.
People don't give a thought about us
We work so hard for this, to get here
To get a better life for our family, friends
And now it feels like it was all for nothing
Our hard work was for nothing.
But now this show our side of the story.
And I hate when people assume things and just think it's true.
We are good people, trying to do good for our family and our life.
And no one sees that, they just people "stealing jobs" or "bad people"
But this song...
I appreciate this, thank you💖
"Immigrants, we get the job done"

#2. Best song on the Hamilton mixtape.

Riz MC, that middle eastern guy is actually Asian (British Pakistani). Also you forget K'naan, the black guy at the beginning who is not hispanic either but Somali Canadian.
Have you ever been listening to a song and there is something with so much energy and passion that you feel like you are bursting? I had that reaction to Snow Tha Product's verse here. Pure fire. It DEMANDS respect.
It's amazing how in a song of 5 min they resumed the daily life of hundred or even million of immigrants in the actual time. I my country, Chile (which become the perfect place for lots of immigrants) the discrimination is huge. Lots of immigrants are bullied and blamed because "they are making our community sick" which is not true. Is disgusting to see all that discrimination to persons looking for a better life...the thing that they don't know is that they make the hard job because the rich doesn't want to get dirty.
Immigrants, we get the job done Chile. Deberian tenerlo en claro

I think that line "we're America's ghostwriters" is going to stick with me the rest of my life. Damn.
That is what I think of first when I think of this song. It's brilliant. And her "Peter Piper" line too - every time I listen to it I'm just blown away.
I agree man! That shit gave me goosebumps as soon as I heard it.
Snow's parents are undocumented, that maybe why that line came from such a deep part of her gut. also that she's a brilliant rapper, of course
Snow is so underrated. Most of her lyrics are gold. 🔥❤🔥
I COME IN PEACE!
Here are the lyrics:
{Intro: J. Period}
You know, and it gets into this whole issue of border security, you know, who's gonna say that the borders are secure? We've got the House and the Senate debating this issue, and it's... it's really astonishing that in a country founded by Immigrants, "immigrant" has somehow become a bad word. So the debate rages on and we continue....
[Intro: "Yorktown" sample]
[Hercules Mulligan]
And just like that it’s over, we tend to our wounded, we count our dead
[John Laurens]
Black and white soldiers alike wonder if this really means freedom…
[George Washington]
Not yet
[Verse 1: K’Naan]
I got 1 job, 2 job, 3 when I need them
I got 5 roommates in this one studio, but I never really see them
And we all come to America trying to get a lap dance from Lady Freedom
But now Lady Liberty is acting like Hillary Banks with a pre-nup
Man I was brave, sailing on graves
Don’t think I didn’t notice those tombstones disguised as waves
I’m no dummy, here is something funny, you can be an immigrant
without risking your lives
Or crossing these borders with thrifty supplies
All you got to do is see the world with new eyes
[Chorus]
Immigrants, we get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
We get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Immigrants, we get the job done
[Verse 2: Snow Tha Product]

[Verse 3: Riz MC]
Ay yo aye, immigrants we don’t like that
Na they don’t play British empire strikes back
They beating us like 808’s and high hats
At our own game of invasion, but this ain’t Iraq
Who these fugees what did they do for me
But contribute new dreams
Taxes and tools, swagger and food to eat
Cool they flee war zones, but the problem ain’t ours
Even if our bombs landed on them like the Mayflower
Buckingham Palace and Capitol Hill
Blood of my ancestors had that all built
It’s the ink you print on your dollar bill, oil you spill
Red line on the flag you hoist when you kill
But still we say “look how far I come”
Hindustan, Pakistan, to London
To a galaxy far from their ignorance
Cos-
[Hook]
Immigrants, we get the job done
[Verse 4: Residente]
Por tierra o por agua
Identidad falsa
Brincamos muros o flotamos en balsas
La peleamos como Sandino en Nicaragua
Somos como las plantas que crecen sin agua
Sin pasaporte americano
Porque La mitad de Gringolandia Es terreno Mexicano
Hay que ser bien hijo e puta
Nosotros Les Sembramos el árbol y ellos se comen la fruta
Somos los que cruzaron
Aquí vinimos a buscar el oro que nos robaron
Tenemos mas trucos que la policía secreta
Metimos la casa completa en una maleta
Con un pico, una pala
Y un rastrillo
Te construimos un castillo
Como es que dice el coro cabrón?
[Chorus]
Immigrants, we get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
We get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Immigrants, we get the job done
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Look how far I come
Immigrants, we get the job done

No person is illegal, just undocumented, no human being is illegal, I love the message of this song :)
If I go into a shop and stuff some steaks into my pants. Am I just an undocumented shopper?
@@Teufer2 ur not an ILLEGAL shopper lmao, ur just a stealer.
It is against US LAW to cross the border ILLEGALLY. SO that would make them ILLEGAL Immigrants.
Applying for asylum is legal, that's what the people at the border are trying to do.
@@Teufer2 No, you're a thief, lmao. That's the stupidest comment I've seen all week

Eyt y va encerio aqui en texas se mira policia x todos lados parando gente
I live In Florida myself, I'm not exaggerating when I say that almost all of my neighbors, classmates, teachers, etc are all Hispanic immigrants. I can't comprehend why they would put such law like this

Fleeing FL? Everybody is fleeing CA, NY, NJ who have alot of illegals to FL buddy
America is the self proclaimed melting pot. She is so special because EVERYONE who lives here came from somewhere else. Even Native Americans came across on the Bering Straight land-bridge during the last Ice Age. We are the product of humanity coming together despite differences and working so that everyone has equal opportunity to build a life with their own two hands.
That is my America. Unfortunately, Nationalism has turned to Nativism for so many of my countrymen. Those who came from other places are scorned for "stealing" our jobs, despite the concept that we are all from elsewhere at some point in our genetic history.
What we need to do as a nation, is come together under Old Glory, and fight to make this a place where we build an overarching, unique culture from ALL the contributions of others and their heritage. We need to see our Immigrants as future Americans or as allies, not as enemies to be feared.
That is how America can fix herself. That is how we will be what we set out to be. A land where all men (nowadays referring to Mankind, not just male humans) are seen as being created equal. Where they are all entitled to the right to seek their own way, and their own life. Liberty is a song written long ago, but it hasn't been shut off. We just need to crank the volume up again.

Is supposed to welcome immigrants, but look where this country is now.
Vincent Drummond then how does the immigration process work? Because last time I checked, we practically don’t have one anymore
Cheezy Ensaymada _You’re acting like it’s an easy process. It’s not, but don’t get me wrong! I’m glad your family came in legally, but unfortunately not everyone has that kind of luck. It irritates me to my soul when people believe it’s just a "easy and fast” process for any immigrant. It’s not._
It took one of my Tia's 10 years.
Update she only got 7 years of residency because now she is dead.
Evelyn I agree. Some people don’t have that kind of time to wait while they’re in dangerous conditions.
@Vincent Drummond 'teach them how to pass' also known as be put on a several year waiting list to become a citizen, in a country where you're unsafe and your family could die
I love how this video shows immigrants as hard working, and at many different levels from sweat shop workers to nurses and high skill workers. Bringing to light how immigrants work different levels instead of victimizing them all by saying they all are working in terrible conditions. It also combats the stigma that they are all lazy freeloaders that want to take advantage of the system. Both are common trips you see in the media.
Yo, shout out to that clock... in the beginning... that's the exact same clock my dad has, he's had it since I can remember (I'm 37). It's the clock I've heard day after day go off at 3am... he'll get up, get ready, and head to work... just so my sisters and I could enjoy the fruits of his and my mom's labor. Both came here illegally... one, now a US citizen, the other, is a US resident. Been in the US longer than Mexico... time, money, sweat, and sleep... that's what they have given to this country... they've definitely gone far.
Damn Residente on this wtf? He's an amazing lyricist so is snow tha product! Now this is real rap. Amazing artists and song with a powerful message👏🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼

"America's ghost writers" is one of the best ways to describe immigrants I've ever heard.
I was dreading watching this for an assignment til Snowdaproduct starting eating it upp 😭
The official immigration process is a freaking nightmare, I can't imagine what some people had to go through when they do it illegally. Massive respect for those who left the life knew just to start a better one for their families.
The immigration process is necessary though.
FilterHat that’s no excuse to come here undocumented.
That's the point Mayuri. They don't want anyone to come otherwise they wouldn't be such a strong nation. They only want the ones willing to go through hell and work their way up, the best and the brightest. If they just let anyone in their country would go to shit.
Günther Schlauch so basically it's survival of the fittest and damn those not at the top?
yes. They wanna keep their country a great nation. That only works with boarders and only taking in people who are worth the trouble.
THAT ONE DUDE WHO RAPPED IN SPANISH HIS WORDS ARE SO TRUE HOLY FUCK YES
Fůnky Fėdørå his name is residente
Not really, he raps about how most of the southwest was originally Mexico's, which we won from the Mexican-American War along with the war between Texas and Mexico, and how Mexicans are just coming back to claim the "gold stolen" look, it was far-fetched when the Zimmerman telegram was sent and it's far-fetched now.
+BlackRaptorJesus 115 If you know anything really you know those wars were just fucking bullshit excuses to go steal the land just like almost every fucking war the US has been in...
Yeah sure, but him rapping about Mexican land being "stolen" is like French guy rapping about how Germany stole land during the Napoleonic wars, just isn't relevant to the situation of an immigrant who comes to a better country to strike it rich.
and you should watch his song called Guerra by Residente
RESIDENTE IS A FUCKIN BEAST
Every now and then I come back to watch this video just to remember to never kneel in front of the oppressor. We, immigrants and sons and daughters of immigrants, have resistance in our blood. Keep fighting.

For all of you insulting this and why people like it; I want you to know that if you spend your life heckling other people’s views and work, you will get nowhere in life. Also, no reasoning for things or media consumed can be accurately linked with sexual orientation. But how would you know, because you spend your life insulting people from a computer. It’s the truth. This video says the truth.
I LOVE Snow’s line and I’m a HUGE Hamilton fan. I also like Snow a lot. “Peter Piper said he picked them but he just underpaid Pablo"
Also, your views are influenced by politics who tackle moral problems with political “solutions”. To prove my point the first person insulting Space Mermaid was literally named “THE DARK NIGHT REPUBLICAN”. Makes sense how you link a comment that you don’t like with a sexual orientation you don’t like. Which completely confuses me because it doesn’t change anything or make a person incompetent.
