As a journalist, this author is very aware of the racial reality and is very cautious and respectful in not equating the terms "undocumented illegals" and "Latinos."In addition, the sources that the author mentions come from a variety of backgrounds (though passionate about immigration issues are not necessarily Latino) and thus it enhances the quality of the article because of this diverse practice.
