Haven't we seen this before?

Ok so I have not talked about this issue at all in my ISU study yet, but I think you will be hearing more and more updates from it. So the Arizona government has just passed the most ridiculous anti-immigration law. This law basically demands racial profiling from citizens and police in the state and lets police officers search ask for proper id papers to anyone they might have “probable suspicion"with.

And you guessed it, no one is happy with this. Students have been sitting outside of government buildings in Arizona while skipping school; people have even suggested “boycotting” Arizona as a whole.

I love the question the article asked, “Rep. Grijalva is talking about how un-American it is to have a person "pulled out of line" because someone does not like the way he or she looks. Sound familiar to the LGBT community?” And its totally true! Read back at the other articles I have talked about .Take Constance for example, she was separated from her entire high school because she was different, and many other . And now when the police might suspect someone (and just remember most of Arizona is Mexican immigrants) of being an illegal immigrant you are letting your people being judged and segregated from their own communities and towns.  Both communities are oftentimes not accepted by society and these issues parallel each other very well.

 I cannot imagine how frustrating it must be for these people in Arizona, thinking that the world is finally moving towards equality, and this happens. In contrast  I can’t help but think that maybe this situation might be a wakeup call for Arizona, that by segregating most of their population they will hopefully pull these two groups out of the line up and back into their own society, but that is going to take time. I just hope that this situation will bring the citizens of Arizona some good, maybe not today but tomorrow never knows!
