‘OITNB’ Actress Speaks Out About Family’s Deportation
“I was coming home from school […] and I got home and their cars were there and dinner was started and the lights were on but I couldn’t find them.Then the neighbors came in. They were just like ‘I’m sorry but your parents were taken away.’ […] I just broke down. I was just like, what do you do? And then I’m so scared for them, what they’re going through. My parents are going to jail— and for what? […] People don’t realize it is so difficult to get documented, and my parents tried forever. The system didn’t offer relief for them.“ —Diane Guerrero
