L’immigration des Capverdiens à Boston (Dorchester et Roxbury): Strategies d’Intégration Linguistique et Culturelle

Chaque année des centaines de capverdiens se dirigent à l’ambassade des États Unis afin de décrocher un visa, pour venir aux États Unis. Peu importe si le visa attribué a une durée limitée. Ils sont tous à la recherche d’une meilleure vie, ils essayeront tout pour réaliser leurs rêves, enfin ils tentent leur chance. Contrairement à ce que l’on pense l’immigration est un processus complexe qui demande beaucoup de courage et de réflexion. Les causes qui poussent les gens à émigrer sont innombrables. Ainsi par exemple, pour un agriculteur la sécheresse pourrait être la raison pour émigrer. En arrivant sur “le champ de bataille”, l’immigrant réalise que l’immigration a des avantages et des inconvénients.
