English.

I've also lived in New Mexico, Arizona and California, states overrun by illegal immigration.

Oh yeah, my mother also is an immigrant. She is from Colombia and speaks English with an accent. She works more than 40 hours a week.

When I was in high school, she worked two or three jobs.

Meanwhile, I'm a Colombian-American who's assimilated. I'm bilingual (more than I can say for most people here).

And I'm a professional writer pursuing a master's degree. I still fly to Colombia to visit family.

This country was built by immigrants and it's still being built by immigrants. Their kids will assimilate just like your forefather did.

Just like I did.


Good post, Maestro!
