Assyrian Americans (Syriac: ܣܘܼܖ̈ܵܝܹܐ ܐܲܡܪ̈ܝܼܟܵܝܹܐ) refers to individuals of ethnic Assyrian ancestry born in or residing within the United States of America. Assyrians are an indigenous Middle-Eastern ethnic group native to Mesopotamia in West Asia who descend from their ancient counterparts, directly originating from the ancient indigenous Mesopotamians of Akkad and Sumer who first developed the independent civilisation in northern Mesopotamia that would become Assyria in 2600BCE. Modern Assyrians often culturally self-identify as Syriacs, Chaldeans, or Arameans for religious and tribal identification. The first significant wave of Assyrian immigration to the United States was due to the Sayfo genocide in the Assyrian homeland in 1914-1924.

  • بدأت هجرة الآشوريين والسريان والكلدان إلى الأمريكيتين منذ ثمانينيات القرن التاسع عشر وذلك بسبب الظروف الاقتصادية وتوفر فرص العمل، كما أدى التمييز الديني إلى تسريع الهجرة منذ ذلك الحين. وقد بدأ المهاجرون من المناطق الريفية بسهل أورميا وسهل نينوى بالهجرة إلى المدن الصناعية بالولايات المتحدة حيث عملوا في المصانع وفي قطاع الخدمات. كما تبعتهم كذلك موجات ذهبت خصيصا للدراسة وتلقي العلوم.
