Community leaders and residents of Patchogue, New York gathered together this morning to speak out against the recent stabbing death of 38-year-old Ecuadorian immigrant Marcello Lucero, who came to the United States 16 years ago. [Ed. note: Query - At what point does one stop being considered an “immigrant?” When does “immigrant man Marcello Lucero” simply become “Marcello Lucero?]
This is from a really great post about a recent hate crime posted at Guanabee. It delves into the "othering" of immigrants and latinos as a whole. Totally worth the read.
