I find it more than interesting that an overwhelming amount of people who go the whole "not against immigration, only illegal immigration" route come from a certain melanin challenged variety. Those same people also refuse to acknowledge the very real history of immigration law and how the law kept getting massaged to only allow more people who look like you than people who look like me.

Even Puerto Ricans, who are US Citizens, only got in because the US wanted some fodder in an anticipated dragged out War during WWI. (WWI = 1914-1918, US jumps in = 1917, Jones Act making us Citizens = 1917)

Arizona's SB 1070 is just atrocious on so many levels. So now a police officer can pull over anyone s/he SUSPECTS of being undocumented? Whatever!! The only silver lining with this is that President Obama and Congress were more than happy to just have Immigration Reform wait on the sidelines after the Health Care Bill was passed. This has moved it right back on the national scene and I think the movement will be there to move the debate forward.

Saturday at 11am, immigrants from all walks of life will meet at Keith Carr Corner to start marching from there to Barnard Park...I hope we'll see you there.

ps I am sooooo happy I don't live in Alabama
