On the subject of positive stories about Dominican immigrants in the US, did anyone else see the nice little piece on CNN en español today about the young son of Dominican immigrants in NY who was going to the presidential inauguration as a reward for being an outstanding student? His whole family were interviewed and presented a very positive image of Dominican immigrants as people who place a great value on education and academic and professional achievement. The boy was only about 13 or 14 and was incredibly articulate.
