21 Ways Undocumented People Can Face Deportation in America
A video published on Mic features 21 celebrities and activists recounting a series of everyday actions that resulted in undocumented immigrants being detained. Here's a sampling, each containing a link to an actual story.
"Getting falsely accused of being a criminal because of your skin color."
"Getting your morning coffee."
"Serving meals to the homeless."
"Detained during a scheduled immigration check-in."
"Taking your pregnant wife to the hospital."
"Dropping your child off at school."
The video was produced to protest the detention of rapper 21 Savage. Shortly after the video was published, on February 12th, 21 Savage was granted a release on bond as well as an expedited hearing.
