But here’s a little funny to lighten things up– the first is from the all too hilarious comedian Vidur Kapur. He’s an Indian, gay immigrant who’s got a whole lot to say about being just that. And more immigrant humor from Canadian-Indian comedian Russel Peters. Check this out: And for your viewing pleasure: here’s the comprehensive list of RaceWire’s immigration coverage and analysis this week. "And where are our people on this?" "If you don’t know, Here ya go." McCain Courts Legalization, Latino Votes. "Crucial Guest-Worker Amendment Defeated." "No May Deadline for Immigration Bill."
