In Texas, a city divided over illegal immigration – Farmers Branch
Tagged: Farmers Branch, TexasPosted on: January 18th, 2007“As the nation paused to remember Martin Luther King Jr.s hope for brotherhood across racial lines this week, a Dallas suburbs struggle with illegal immigration suggests that some issues can still divide people into feuding groups marked mostly by ethnicity.
This time many see the turmoil in Farmers Branch as a dispute between Anglos and Hispanics. Tempers have blazed so intensely that people on both sides fear that the City Hall screaming matches could escalate into fistfights.”
