Introduction Several people immigrate to different countries every year and this has continued to increase with modernism and globalization. Many countries such as the U.S., Britain, Australia, and Canada, among others receive numerous immigrants every year. This does not mean that life usually becomes smooth as soon as they enter into their new homes, instead, they face many challenges related to their identity that demand compromise of their traditions and cultures. Most surveys have shown that immigrants face many difficult challenges ranging from religious beliefs, culture, behavior, taboos, and needs, among others. This has to some extent, caused jitters and hardened survival for immigrants who go to their new countries with great enthusiasm hoping to find everything running smoother than in their homeland (Dangarembga, p. 112). The United States, Canada, and Australia receive most immigrants according to the surveys conducted over the years, and interestingly, they are a host to many immigrants who face these difficulties because they come from many different countries with different cultures. This paper will attempt to identify the bi-culturism and explore the identity crisis facing immigrants during transitioning into new countries. Bi-culturism is the phenomenon in which one is caught up between one and another culture, and has to pursue them at the same time. On one hand, one is attached to his/her native culture which has been part of his/her life until the time of immigration, and on the other, he/she is faced with a new reality in the country of immigration, with the people practicing a completely different culture and values. It becomes quite difficult for such people to survive especially if hard hit on the critical issues they value like religion, taboos, among others. For instance, India has Muslims, Hindus, and Christians. When a Muslim Indian moves to the U.S and a Hindu also does, as well as a Christian. It is more probable that the Christian would most likely find it easy than the Muslim or Hindu, and it would be much tougher for the Muslim to adapt to the social life in the U.S. Moreover, a pagan who does not care will even enjoy much freedom. It is worth noting that different people immigrate for various reasons and these reasons are quite relevant in determining how fast they transition into a new environment. Most people immigrate in search of better lives, others asylums running away from their motherland for fear of death. These are the most affected and find transitioning very difficult as they seek to start a new life with worries of what could happen (Conde, p. 89). Surveys Survey shows that immigration has been a key component of population growth in the U.S; it has also conveyed that the varied cultures that constantly change have been a major contribution of immigration as people bring their respective cultures as well as to adapt existing ones. American history has had a trend of cultural change that can only be attributed to immigrants. The voting trend has constantly shifted with these events, crime rates following suit, and social mobility, which has been adversely affected. It has been established that the U.S immigrants taken as permanent residents are more than any other recipient country. This was mainly due to the introduction of a liberated policy on immigration in 1965. Their numbers have quadrupled over the years and
