A sociological study of Mexican assimilation in Salt Lake City

The mere act of migration does not make a foreigner into a real member of a new community or a new nation. Consciously or unconsciously one takes much of the old group to the new. He carries his nationality with him wherever he may go. He will forget it or change it only with the passing of time and with the aid of many people and as the result of many things. But until he does he is still a stranger in a strange land. He is still a foreigner to his new nation. He has not been assimilated.
