In Amado Muro’s Cecilia Rosas, Senorita Cecilia Rosas shows actions of assimilation that are similar to the ones of today’s immigrants. She is a woman who prides herself on being an American. In doing so she pushed away her fellow Mexican girlfriends. She is an example of how immigrants, boys and girls alike, try to fit in by ridding themselves of their culture and assuming an American style and attitude. Ridding themselves of their accents and changing the way they dress is a way women try to fit in. Speaking with an accent is like telling everyone their immigrant status.
