Pedro, a 26-year-old male immigrant from Brazil, came to the United States when he was 13 years old. This is what he replied when asked how people in Brazil perceived him when he came back to visit his home country:
Brazilians really love their culture and their country. […] And actually, culture-wise, Brazilians have a very negative look upon the United States. They don’t like the capitalist culture. They think that Americans are arrogant. They don’t like the politics here, they think that Americans want to take over the world. […] But in order to improve their lives money-wise, they would come to the United States just for that.”
