* "New US American" ni neno linalojumuisha yote linalojumuisha wahamiaji, wakimbizi na watoto wao. Inatambua kuwa familia mpya zinaweza kuthamini asili zao za kitamaduni, huku pia zikijifunza na kuchangia jumuiya zao mpya za Marekani. Inatumika kutambua dhabihu na mchango wa wahamiaji wa kizazi cha kwanza na cha pili kwa Marekani, na urithi ambao wanatoka.
Baraza la Ushauri la IRRC lilichagua kuongeza Marekani kwenye neno ili kutambua historia na hisia za kutengwa sehemu nyingi za uzoefu wa Amerika ya Kusini wakati "Amerika" inatumiwa kuelezea Marekani pekee. Kwa kuongeza "Marekani" kwa Marekani Mpya, tunaheshimu historia na utambulisho wa wenzetu wa Amerika Kusini huko Amerika Kaskazini, Kati na Kusini.
* “New US American” is an all-encompassing term that includes immigrants, refugees and their children. It recognizes that newcomer families can both treasure their cultural backgrounds, while also learning from and contributing to their new US communities. It serves to recognize the sacrifice and contribution of first and second-generation immigrants to the United States, and the heritage from which they come.
The IRRC Advisory Council elected to add US to the term to recognize the history and feelings of alienation many parts of Latin America experience when “American” is used to solely describe the United States. By adding “US” to New American, we honor the history and identity of our fellow Latin Americans in North, Central, and South America.
