At one time vast home development was planned in Chatham County. Nine large luxury subdivisions would have contained 1,921 homes built on 3,238 acres; however, collapse of the housing market has held up the start of some and the foreclosure of others. Cowell discusses the causes and the results, such as the evaporation of an anticipated increase in the county's tax base.

Abstract:
An anonymous Latina woman living in Chapel Hill and her harassment by Bedri Kulla is told to explain the rights that immigrants have in the US when they are victims of a crime. Even if an immigrant is undocumented and not a US citizen, if a crime has been committed against them, they are eligible for legal aid and cannot be deported. Immigrants are often victimized or abused and these women are often afraid to report their abuses and abusers for fear that they will be deported.
