Part 2/9:
The speaker predicts that Europe's future facing immigration will be tumultuous. They emphasize that Europeans, unlike Americans, lack a longstanding history of multicultural integration and racial fluidity. Historically, Europe has not been a multi-racial society in the way the United States has, and this foundational difference complicates their approach to diversity.
The lack of a dynamic class mobility system further exacerbates these issues. When nations bring in individuals with values, religions, and cultural practices that are markedly different from traditional European norms, tensions arise. The speaker suggests that many immigrants are unwilling or unable to assimilate due to these cultural differences.
