Recently I was reading the L.A. Weekly when I came across a column called "Ask A Mexican." The second article, about immigration reform, piqued my interest. The woman who sent the question in talked about a study done about the kinds of jobs immigrants would take, which anglo Americans would shun. Like the author of the
column, I have never seen said study nor do I believe it exists. Unlike him, however, I do not believe that successful Guatemalans are a myth nor in using insults against them, black people, gay people or just about anyone because of the shock value which will bring more morbid readers to my column. I do not believe in prostituting my soul for clips.
