Ch. 4 Part 1

This chapter really opened my eyes to the discrimination of the Hospanic population in our country. While I obviously knew that many people view Hispanics in a racist way, I had no idea that it went back into our history as a nation so far. The shear numbers that increased into our nation were a direct result to the policies that we invoked, and the more we attempted to keep them out, the more came in illegally. Many of the resentments of the people today, I think, are spawned from people angry at illegals, but because of the need for cheap workers who could be paid less and would do more difficult work, we brought them in.
