Talking up that anti-immigrant rhetoric

“Now is the time for Latino community leaders to reap the benefits of the anti-immigrant movement.

As strange as that may sound, it’s an absolute truth that such a negative sentiment can benefit, in the long run, the very group that it targets. There is energy in nativism, and it takes little to turn it around. In fact, that negative impulse of the anti-immigrant wave has already produced a positive outcome.

First, let’s understand that the anti-immigrant sentiment is a movement, organized and well established. It has a militant faction, a thorough media component and a well-funded political arm.”*
