“Halt the Hyphen” Website Appeals to Americans’ Unity – Call for Assimilation

So, they learned the English language.  They learned American customs.  They learned American mannerisms.  They learned to adapt to their new lives because, more than anything else, they wanted to assimilate into American culture. No hyphens were necessary or even thought of back then.

Today, American born and foreign born people living in America have decided to “brand’ themselves with hyphenated identities reflective of the countries and cultures they, or their ancestors, came from, even if their families have lived in this wonderful country for generations!  Today we have, in no particular order, Mexican-Americans, Polish-Americans, African-Americans, Irish-Americans, Arab-Americans, Italian-Americans, and on and on.

That’s why “Halt the Hyphen, LLC” was started.  Created as a non-political, social organization, its founders’ goal is to help refocus the minds of Americans on unity, assimilation and old fashioned American pride.  Preferring to remain anonymous due to personal beliefs, its founders respect and celebrate the pride and spirit of ethnicity, but they warn of polarization that can lead to national weakness, distrust and even violence.  Their stated goal is to reunite and blend Americans back into the “melting pot” our forefathers described and envisioned hundreds of years ago.
