Immigrants

An estimated 75,000 immigrants live in Los Angeles, All transplants from Mexico, No, they’re not who you think. They stand in rows along the famous LA streets, A promotional idea of real estate developers. No more native than the Dodgers baseball team. The idea came from the French Riviera Where these palm trees were also transplanted And intended to portray glitz and glamour. Symbols of the “City of Angels”, You will see them in many films shot there By directors, actors, and studio executives. Many of them were immigrants too.
