Living Undocumented

This week I found something about immigration that I didn’t know existed. There is a new series on Netflix called Living Undocumented and it is about 8 undocumented immigrants and how they live their life in America when they can face deportation at any time. Within each episode they talk to the families they follow and ask they how they feel about what is going on around them and how much it affects them. They use the words scared and living in a shadow or “they never knew that not being born in America can be a bad and dangerous thing”. There is about six episodes showing a very personal side of what immigrants feel about how the world and society is treating them. They even talk about the wait for a green card which could be up to 20 years. I find these immigration stories important because the news makes it all about face but watching these shows really show the emotional side if how immigration really effects the people around us.
