Yesterday Senator Joseph Dunn (D) of Garden Grove appeared on the "Studio 2" program on CBS2 talking about his work to rectify the wrongs done to Mexican-Amercan US citizens in the 1930s who were illegally deported to Mexico because of job shortages during the Depression. He spoke about how dedicated he is to rectifying this historical injustice, to the point of reparations even. He stopped short of identifying racism as the reason why this history has been erased from the books, but I thought it might be good to contact this guy and see if he's willing to put his money where his mouth is and not just focus on symbolic gestures to fix past wrongs, but look at what's going on in his city right now. When asked why addressing this issue was so important to him, he said it was because of his largely Latino constituency in Garden Grove. Write him/contact him. Also contact CBS2 Studio2 program (Linda Chavez is one of the hosts).
