“Los mexicanos me dieron trabajo y salvaron este pueblo” | BBC Mundo

Such a great story of the revitalization of a small town in Guymon, Oklahoma, and how the Mexican community helped to revitalize a town that had become a ghost town.  We, as a nation, need to hear many more stories like this because they help counter harmful, negative myths and stereotypes and how in so doing, inadvertently deprive them of what would have otherwise been a great opportunity for these locales.
