I need help concerning the following:

There is a teacher at my son's school that is talking about immigration and is really big on the republican political talking points about immigration from Mexico. He currently gave my son a handout from the internet. It's called "How Mass Immigration Exacerbates National Problems" http://www.diversityalliance.org/docs/DASA-FACTList.html It's from a diversity group but seems a little harsh. Are there any sites that don't villify immigrants that anyone knows about that he could check out?

1. What grade level?

(and how close to the border are you?)

3. 10th grade

and which border?;) Actually, we are one of the leading locales for people coming from Mexico even though I'm in NC which is a long way from the border. I'm not saying there aren't problems, I'm looking for insightful articles that take a more observatory and problem solving approach and outlook.

5. Here in Alabama, we're having the same issues!

Huge influx of Hispanics over the past decade (20,000 to 40,000)...and how to deal with the issues humanely...They have greatly contributed to our labor force, as well as added to our diversity.

4. I might stop in and have a talk with the principal

This seems a bit out of line. Goodness am I glad my kids are out.
