30 Days: Immigration

Most folks will remember this episode of Morgan Spurlock's short lived tv show, "30 Days." This is the episode that has a minute man living with a family for 30 days. There's nothing in this episode groundbreaking or of highlight for the episode, other than it was filmed in 2006, when immigration was being discussed in congress and families were taking to the streets in marches. The family featured in the show also lives in my neighborhood of Boyle Heights and one of the girls featured went to the same high school I did, Roosevelt High. Things have changed dramatically since then to say the least.
