My Name Is Mr. Ramirez, and I’m Facing Deportation

Lauren Schwarze | January 5, 2011 | Comments (2)


We hear a lot about undocumented immigrants, especially in border states like California and Arizona. But undocumented immigrants aren’t just in border states, and their stories aren’t all the same.

Jeanette McDermott took a Nine Academy class in November and produced this video about an undocumented immigrant living in Missouri who is facing deportation; his hearing will be in Kansas City in April.

Listen to Mr. Ramirez’s story. What do you think should happen, come April?

  1. Rico says:

    Send him back. He broke the law.

  2. Jim says:

    Stop referring to him and others as undocumented immigrants. He is not an immigrant. He is here illegally, and did not follow immigration laws. He has taken the place of those who are awaiting legal immigration opportunity. He should be sent back immediately, and fined. His employers should also be fined. He is an illegal. This web page fails to acknowledge the truth.
