[quote=Anonymous]She should spend a little time reviewing the history of her home city Troy, NY in the 1890s - immigration, race, politics -- it is all there, and she can see how derivative and predictable she sounds. I would assume her own immigrant parents felt some level of pressure to join the democratic political machines in upstate NY (troy's seems to have been not as strong as the machine in Albany, but her mother worked in Albany and her father in the garment industry), and she or they resented that, but that doesn't get you off the hook for being a racist 50-60 years later. [My own parents grew up in nearby cities and were 15 years older. They felt really strongly about registering as independents (after moving to the suburbs) having grown up in these cities (thankfully they do not share Wax's opinions about race or immigration).] [/quote]
