OPINION
Immigration is a highly contentious, pivotal Issue and opinions range from locked against to strongly supportive. Though mixed, of course, Blacks' feelings are predominantly negative. The "new immigration" has obvious far-reaching ramifications for politics, the economy, public education and other key areas. (Black leaders were virtually silent concerning last year's immigrant rights national initiative.)
