"While
some are undocumented, some are resident aliens,
and some are United States citizens; it is this complicated
combination of
immigration statuses which places many of the residents
at Duroville in the
crossroads of our Nation’s incongruous immigration
and agricultural policies -
That, on the one hand, portend that undocumented workers
lack legal status
while at the same time predicating the economic efficiency
of an agricultural
industry on their hard work, it appears that we have, once
again, established
a rather ‘peculiar institution’ to service our
agrarian needs."
