It's a shame those fuddy duddies can't recognize that although we may have arrived here in different ways and at different times, the vast majority of us would not be here without immigration. It would be nice to be able to celebrate our respective histories and our common good fortune to live here.Miss Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03885432938278349472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994774394452219401.post-3835578746803407882010-05-12T22:13:50.599-07:002010-05-12T22:13:50.599-07:00Every day I become more ashamed that I have to cal...Every day I become more ashamed that I have to call Arizona "home"...tdoeblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05001939648374278556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8994774394452219401.post-51747991643543057902010-05-12T16:54:06.577-07:002010-05-12T16:54:06.577-07:00I was talking to a coworker about this bill today....I was talking to a coworker about this bill today. I think it's mostly people fearful that America is being "invaded", mostly because we've lost so much of our rich immigrant history and it has been replaced by the culture of Wal-Mart and "Amurika". <br /><br />Old fuddy duddies don't realize that "American History" represents Judeo Christian European history, and there is very little that represents that vast, rich history that so many of our students come from. It is, in fact, possible to be a proud Latino and still be an American. Too many people want our kids to identify with a history that just isn't theirs, and are very fearful of anything that is perceived as "different". Boils down to flat out ignorance.Triciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14674070132188297672noreply@blogger.com
