Supporters of Residents and critics argue the law targets immigrant communities' cultural identity, breaking up tight-knit neighborhoods built over generations and treating residents' heritage as a problem to be dismantled rather than integrated.
Supporters of Residents and critics argue the ghetto law targets cultural identity, treating residents' heritage as a barrier rather than a bond, and contend that uprooting communities erodes the social fabric that makes these neighborhoods home.
