Sally Applegate-Rodeman signed If You Don't Speak Up, They Will Speak For You... 2013-02-22 12:25:02 -0800Publicly letting it be known that my husband and myself have had only positive encounters with immigrants from Mexico, Costa Rica, Afghanistan, Jordan, India, and other countries. Immigrants enrich our lives and we, by the way, are “white” senior Americans.

Sally Applegate-Rodeman commented on Todos Somos Ilegales 2012-06-27 13:43:48 -0700The video is outstanding—moved me to tears. It’s overdue, true, and musically and visually good. Everyone should see it. The idea that human beings are deemed “illegal” is absurd. The song makes the right point. Every piece of ground was stolen, and the only people who were here originally are the Native American tribes, nations, and peoples, who have been victims of systematic genocide. The folk singer Buffy St. Marie sang of this years ago. We are a white couple 70 years old but we’re not stupid like some others of our group.
