Eprop a Mexican Day
In honor of the protest today, I would like to declare today as “Eprop a Mexican Day.” I realize you cannot go and protest. Many of you just can’t get away from your work. But we can all support our Mexican friends by epropping them. If you don’t have your own Mexican subscriber, you can eprop mine. Her name is Pam. Here is her link: elevenyellowchutes She was born in Mexico City, Mexico. Her mom moved to the states when the economy got bad in Mexico. Her step-father was an illegal immigrant until he married her mother. He had to work under the table cleaning offices and doing construction. He had to survive with no benefits. Her mom had to clean hotel rooms because she did not speak English.
The whole family lived in a one bedroom apartment with three kids. At one point they were homeless and lived with her mom’s brother. Life is difficult while trying to learn the language. Plus they could not go back and visit family for fear of getting caught.
Please go by and tell Pam you are glad she is here in American with us. elevenyellowchutes
