‘Courier’ Gets Tales Of Racism Out Of Way Early In Immigration Series

The Bucks County Courier Times is doing a weeklong series on immigrants living in Lower Bucks County. (The LBC, if you will.)

Here’s how it begins:

Sometimes, it’s a banana that flies into Lorenzo Bravo’s bike along Street Road.

Other times, it’s a racial slur or a loud honk that throws him off balance.

Bravo, 37, originally from Mexico, has been a permanent U.S. resident since 1988, but some people still assume he is here illegally.

“Most people are good,” Bravo said of Americans. “But some … they just see me walking on the street and they don’t like me.”

Oh, Bucks County residents. You so crazy! And racist!
