carlymd93 's review for:
In the Country We Love: My Family Divided
by Diane Guerrero
A 5 star story written in a 2 or 3 star way. I had never previously really tried to put myself in the shoes of families who are affected by immigration policy and illegal residency. Diane's story gives faces to those families and those stories that are the subject of most national headlines lately. I would give anything to hear what the agencies in charge have to say about never realizing that Diane, and so many other children, are completely abandoned when their parents are deported. It is an ugly situation, and I appreciate Diane's honesty and willing to share the parts of her life that she has felt shame about for so long. I think this is a very important story and more stories like this should be told in hopes that we can humanize the issue and have compassion and empathy when making political decisions.
