We Are All Immigrants
P
rovided we agree that the cradle of humankind was in Africa and nomadic members of the early humans made their way from the Great Rift Valley throughout the rest of the globe, then in the ultimate sense the entire world is composed of immigrants.
O
ver the millennia, invasions of peoples into others' lands was the way life was led. That includes Native Americans who periodically moved into lands held by other tribes. It also includes various African tribes who did the exact same thing on the Mother continent.
W
e would do well to bear in mind that, unless the inherited trait of hypomania has some limited lifespan, and then disappears, each and everyone of us is in fact the product of some sort of human migratory movement.
