respectfully immigrants don’t just “grow our food, pack our food, cook us food, wash dishes, bus tables, and care for our children”. to many of us they are also our parents, our partners, our friends. they are doctors and engineers and teachers and organizers. and even if they contributed nothing to the economy or “culture” they would still be worthy of a dignified life.
I know that of course, I was only listing some of the integral roles played in the restaurant industry. But I hear you, and I’m sorry if it came across as insensitive, that was not my intention.
