Article Summary:An Immigrant’s Silent Struggle Robert Kosi Tette’s article “An Immigrant’s Silent Struggle,” explores the challenges of migrating to a new country. Many immigrants, especially from Africa, believe that reaching America means ultimate success. However, this is not the case. Through Tette’s piece, it becomes clear that many immigrants have inflated expectations as they relocate but easily find that survival in America requires years of exhaustion and hard work.
