My interview with Rinku Sen, author of "Accidental American."
Quoted: “We are all accidental Americans in some way,” writes Rinku Sen, offering up serious food for thought in “The Accidental American: Immigration and Citizenship in the Age of Globalization”. “Sometimes the accidents were happy ones—an unexpected chance to come to the United States, or the good fortune of being born into privilege. For others, the accidents were tragic and violent.”

I've always thought the United States has gotten a lot right in the past when it comes to immigration and tolerance of different ethnic/religious groups (Fareed Zakaria from Newsweek theorizes that's why you haven't seen homegrown attacks in the U.S. like you have in Europe). Let's hope we move forward rather than screwing it up.
Quoted: Europe's low birthrates pose a serious threat to its economic security, making immigration crucial to its survival.
