Like any immigrant experience, we have had to traverse thousands of miles just for a chance to be here (Ben Lumicao, adviser on Chicago's Commission on Human Relations)

There are so many obstacles and struggles, and it is difficult adjusting to a new language and culture. On top of all that, no one should have to worry about being the target of a crime as awful as this. (Lumicao, referring to the drowning of a Vietnamese fisherman who was pushed into Lake Michigan to his death on Sept. 1, 2007, Chicago Tribune, Sept. 9, 2007)
