OPEN LETTER

 

Dear people of Phoenix,
          
         In this page I try to show you what I have learn.  It is important to understand the issues that are going on in our state.  Many people judge and take decision without really looking at the big picture.  As educated people, we must first evaluate and understand the consequences of our actions.  Prop. 200 was passed not to long ago in our state.  It is true that it will limit many illegal aliens in this state, but I think that should not be the point.  Limitations only lead to desperate actions.  In an effort to show people that not all illegal aliens are the same, I wrote Rigo's story.  He just an example of the many people that come into this country only in search of a better life.  When I started this class I was against Prop. 200.  Now that I finished this class, I am even more against what was proposed.  The purpose of this letter is not to convince people of what they think.  My purpose is to show you that after studying the culture and the reasons people from all over the world come into this country, I feel I really understand what's going on in this country.  If you have time, take a minute and look over my web page. If you can, look over all of my classmates webpage.  If you have already done it, I can only say, I hope that my research has helped you in any way.
   
                                                                                             Thank you,
