TV: Up next on basic cable- a "build it yourself" house show! Each episode we spend the whole hour... pretending Mexican laborers aren't actually the ones doing all the work.
Well, isn’t it the point that they Do have jobs in the construction industry? And that they Do get paid for work done? So, now what’s with the complaint?! ;)
If all the “real work” is done by Mexicans, but the Cuban-American guy is the only Latino that shows up on camera, there might be some ethnic prejudice involved. But for now, [citation needed].
Mr. Alcaraz may be American-born, but that won’t keep him from having to show ID in Arizona, nor will it keep certain people from including him in their prejudice against “those Mexicans”…

For the record, Bob Vila of “This Old House” is Cuban-American.

Yep, “do it yourself” means "pay somebody else to do it. "
