I came to the US 12 years ago. I am currently living in Doraville, Georgia, and I am a member of the popular committee Fuerzas Unidas. I have a daughter, and five American great-children. I also have a son that was deported eight years ago. I am participating in this action because we all are suffering the menace of the deportations, and it is not only my family, but everybody around me, and somebody has to step up. I was one of the seven people that chained ourselves to the fence of the White House in the summer, and this action is part of the escalation we have promised president Obama until we stop deportations and the separation of families.
