Our family maid, who is from Guatemala, marched in the big event yesterday with her son. Spanish radio had warned marchers not to drive their cars and tie up traffic, but take DART instead. The result? It took them an hour an half to get from their home in Garland to downtown, and almost three hours to get home later. That’s devotion to a cause. But at the march, one of the speakers gave our maid an article, supposedly from Newsweek, that forecasted a major shift in American ethnicity over the next 50 years. As she explained it, “Since the white people only have one or two children, or even none sometimes, just dogs or cats, and the peoples like us have so many many babies, and the black people, too, then in fifty years there will be no more peoples with the jellow hair.”
