DreamActivist PA Coming Out Action

As part of a national week of action in coordination with the National Immigrant Youth Alliance (NIYA), in about a week undocumented youth and their families will publicly reveal their immigration status. A very bold move, these families are fed up with the rules and regulations that are tearing their families apart. Through a public Coming Out of the Shadows, DreamActivist will empower other undocumented immigrants to stand up and fight for their human rights. And to be honest, they shouldn't be afraid. It's a shame that some people have to hide because they fear being targeted. When immigrants enter the U.S., stay undocumented and give birth to children...as soon as those children grow older, they will realize the fears of their parents. This will be an ongoing battle that no U.S. President can ever fix. There will always be American citizens living in fear because they assume undocumented immigrants are "taking their jobs."
