We have created SIX DEGREES OF IMMIGRATION in response to the fear, phobia and hatred surrounding the "Immigration Debate" ---- There is plenty to be negative about on this topic, however being negative is just too easy. If you are an immigrant you can be angry about delays and backlogs and a multitude of other injustices; if you are anti-immigrant, the media and other blogs devote plenty of space to your vitriol and complaints---this won't be the place for that.
This blog is about exploring and celebrating the way that everyone's life is touched in a POSITIVE way by IMMIGRATION.
The challenge is to fight the urge to be fearful, phobic or angry, and instead to find SOMETHING related to the topic of immigration that has inspired or simply touched your life. If you simply can't help yourself from making a negative comment then your task is to NOT WRITE here but rather take action towards legislative change by contacting your legislator or aligning yourself with an organization that is committed to real immigration reform.
