Jairo Yanes, 17, was a junior at Marshall High School until last Monday. That's when U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents caught up with him.

I hate these kind of stories, but the reality is this could happen to anyone of us. That's why we should never stop fighting for our DREAM!!

As you can see, we're making national media, just not in the way we want...

Please take a moment to read about "Coming Out Day" and why is it important for everyone on this forum and across the nation to be out and known as undocumented students.

The deeper you are in the shadows the harder it becomes for us, or anyone to help you out.

And yes, we expect each and everyone of you to send Obama a video "Saying Hi, my name is _____ and I am undocumented", because we wont pass the DREAM Act without YOUR help =D

Man, stories like these really grind my gears, but this should only serve as motivation to all of us, who are really passionate and want this DREAM to be a reality, to knock it up a notch and fight and work even harder than we already are, it is time!!!

im sorry but i disagree with you, it may be helpful to some but really this is def not something evryone should be doing. you may not be aware but there are high schools where if they found out a student was illegal and was facing deportation , would probably petition to have ICE come in and take him. not everyone goes to a kumbaya school where students give a f**k about their peers. For the safety and social "well being" it is best to stay in the shadows while in school but rather take part in more private forms of activismn. and as lovely as it sounds, i'd rather save my breath and not send a video to "obama", im sure theres somebody designated to delete videos like that.
this kid got sent back not because he was "too deep in the shadows" but because the obama admistration believes in violating the human and civil rights of children just to gain a little more "political credit" simple as that. no hyperbole there
