Yo también soy inmigrante

Some second- and third-generation immigrants joined the marches and demonstrations yesterday. I didn't, but I was thinking about friends and family members who are first-generation immigrants. I wondered if Jodi's grandfather was part of the Pittsburgh events. He's an Irish-American immigrant. Two of my own grandparents (a"h) were Ukrainian-American immigrants. And of course many of the people I grew up with in Miami are first- and second-generation Cuban-American immigrants.
