Watch this very helpful video to understand more about the D.R.E.A.M. Act and its current status. Millions of young people need the protection provided by this bi-partisan legislation.
I don't see how a person could not have compassion on these young people, but that is not my total reaction to the video. While watching it I recalled another post of yours from months ago. In it you recommended Howard Zinn's book, A People's History of the United States. Why would anyone want to encourage people to live in the United States if it is as bad as Zinn describes it to be? Where else in the world would people risk everything just to be here? Maybe Zinn was wrong.
Thanks, RC. Zinn was not wrong according to the documentary evidence; it is just a revelation as to how bad the larger world has been and can be. The poor in the world everywhere suffer unduly.
