#undocumentedandunafraid

[perfectdragonalmondlover]

There’s a heaviness in my chest that, quite frankly, has been with me my entire life.

A knot in my throat that tightens every time I see another headline, another family torn apart.

And it’s not just any family—it’s families like mine.

Mexican families. Immigrant families.

The ones who gave up everything—for safety, for a future, for their children.

You watch your parents work two, sometimes three jobs.

They come home with aching bodies and still manage to smile, to ask how your day was.

All to protect you from the weight of their reality.

But like many eldest daughters in immigrant families, you grow up carrying a quiet fear:

What if one day, they’re just… not there?

All I can do is pray, hope,

and hold my breath until I hear the front door open again.

I can’t wrap my head around living in a system that refuses to see their humanity.

We are not invisible.

We are not disposable.

We are the backbone of this country.

And we deserve more.

I don't know where to put this

Note to self: I have the urge to write this down. I was really anxious when trump came into office and had like anxiety attacks and could barely go outside half the time. I had racing thoughts as to how undocumented folx would be taken into custody, deported, gathered or put into something like internement camps. It wouldn't be able to move and be paralyzed. It's 2018 and some version of all this has happened. Its annoying, frustrating, gets me angry, sad, scary, and so many mixed emotions. I want to use my energy to resist and also just simply live my life.

Whatever is happening I recognize there's community organizing happening, there's direct actions taking place, there's people out there to support me and to support you in whatever is going on. Hoping you can feel that you are not alone 💛

Repost from @runaapi using @RepostRegramApp - "I have been in this country for twenty years. This is the only home that 800,000 of my peers and I know. We must absolutely pass the DREAM Act. Every day that goes by without the passage of the DREAM Act is a day more and more of us fall through the cracks. Join me in calling for a passage of a Clean DREAM Act." - @tonykchoi . . #DreamActNow #DACA #DREAMERs #undocumentedandunafraid #cleandreamact #defenddaca #heretostay

Statement from @culturestrike : With the latest announcement of #DACA being rescinded, @culturestrike will continue to support and uplift undocumented immigrant artists and cultural workers. We call on fellow art organizations, art institutions, and cultural leaders to be daring and unapologetic about their support of undocumented migrants, to offer sanctuary, to provide resources, to hire, and to shift culture and language. There is no room for complicity or inaction in these times. We take direction from, and center, the leadership and courage of undocumented people. We rise and always resist with our undocumented communities. #DefendDACA #MigrationisBeautiful #Undocumented #UndocumentedandUnafraid #art #artforchange #immigrant #migrant #immigration #migration #undocuqueer
