Tuscaloosa, AL – A 2007 Census Dept. update puts the state's immigrant population at 137-thousand. This week, producer Pamela Tran takes us back through the journey of three immigrants to Alabama. In the year 2000 the top immigrant populations in both Alabama and Mississippi were Mexicans, at nearly 28 percent. In the third and final installment of "Alabama: The Immigrant Experience," we'll hear from one of those immigrants from Mexico.
