This thesis is submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Teaching to Speakers of Other Languages, 2020. Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. Includes bibliographical references (pages 65-70). Immigrants migrated to a foreign country with lots of hopes, dreams in their eyes and for a better life style. Most of the immigrants are migrated in search of good jobs and some other for pursuing higher studies. All their hopes and dreams are shattered once they entered into the foreign country. The natives are not welcoming at all rather they considered the immigrants as ‘alien’ and separated them from their community. On the other hand, the immigrants face lots of problems, crises and challenges to cope in a new country and with it’s people. Immigrants are mostly discriminated for their religion, status and skin color. As a result, immigrants try to adopt the ‘alien’ culture and ends with suffering from identity crisis. This paper will show how the immigrants are discriminated and the reasons behind the discrimination – racial discrimination, Islamophobia and multiculturalism. These reasons are described in the light of post - colonial theory, Homi K Bhabha’s theory on hybridity, mimicry, and third space and cultural difference and Erik Erikson’s theory on identity crisis.
