DACA Postcards
Let me begin by saying that the repeal in DACA is just the most ignorant choice that could of been done. I had a feeling this was going to happen as soon as we got the orange clown into office. Removing DACA is an unethical decision, there are kids who will probably be sent to a place they have never visited, all they know is there home here in the USA. Even though i am not a DACA recipient i still stand strong with the movement and encourage it. Especially with my Hispanic people, but not just with just them, but other DACA students from different backgrounds as well. DACA is not just for "Mexicans" as most racists who follow the orange clown would try to justify, middle finger to them. Also because on top of that because i just want to oppose the orange clown in any way possible. It's his fault we have all these high racial tensions in America and have nuclear bomb threats coming from a hermit kingdom. Honestly i have never felt racial tensions like this before in my life, during the Obama era i did not even feel like this, but now it feels like i am being targeted because of my heritage in a away. Especially coming to university where most of the students are white i can sometimes feel the tension in some of my classrooms today and in my past semesters. It is just an awkward a phase to be in honestly. At the same time its not like its every white persons fault, there are some people out their with common sense in their head and help strive for ethical solutions. Growing up in the south side of Chicago, in Little Village it really helped me grow my heritage. Little Village is literally like a little mexico here in Chicago and i love it. In other words, rather than making this post into a conspiracy theory post i wanted to share this moment with. My writing professor had told us about an event that would be going on in the library, it was a post card signing to show your support for DACA. Of course, more than happily i went out to show my support. The post cards in a short sum write out your concern for the DACA repeal, and you choose which representative you want to intend it for. I feel glad i went out and did this, i feel like i am doing the right thing.
