For most‚ the subject of death is a taboo; it is a topic that most avoid‚ both in conversation and in thought. People have a tendency to fear that which they do not understand.

Where I Fit I may not look like an undocumented alien‚ but until the age of 18 that’s just what I was. When the pundits began to tear into undocumented immigrants last summer‚ using terms like "parasites" and "criminals‚" my first reaction was to bury my head and turn off the TV.
