the movie was "A Day Without a Mexican"

May 1, 2006, was 'A Day
Without Immigrants'.
Huge protest marches
against the proposed
immigration bill, and
a boycott of businesses,
to show the impact
immigrants have on
the economy.
People also walked out
of school and work.
It doesn't look as if the
manicured lawns on my
campus suffered, though.
The grass is actually cut
in two lengths there.
Golf green short next
to the curb, and a bit
longer a few inches in
from the concrete divider.
The groundskeepers
often speak only Spanish.
Sometimes you see Latino
faculty members chatting
with them. And that is kind
of what California history
looks like.
