25 6/25/201520080207 ©Robert LeRoux Hernandez, 2008 25 Estimated Unauthorized Migrant Population in Massachusetts 150,000 - 250,00 (Pew) 508,530 total Hispanic population in Mass.

26 6/25/201520080207 ©Robert LeRoux Hernandez, 2008 26 F.A.I.R. Illegal immigration, like legal immigration to Massachusetts, is heavily Mexican. We estimate that Massachusetts' illegal alien population now numbers about 83,000 persons. The continued addition of illegal immigrants over the next 45 years, assuming it continues at current rates, is projected to add more than 281,000 persons to the population from newcomers and their offspring

35 6/25/201520080207 ©Robert LeRoux Hernandez, 2008 35 Numbers are driven by ideology more than science Numbers tell the story they are framed to tell Aggregation of individual historical realities may be the best we can do The larger the aggregation, the less reliable the history?
