You are exactly the kind of person this country needs. Do not give up! I am just an old man living in West Virginia, but I know social injustice when I see it.

I never thought i would actually participate in any of these blogs or websites. I am an AB540 student as well and i see the sacrifice that we as human beings do in order to reach our dreams and show the people beind us that WE as IMMIGRANTS still can achieve a higher standard of education. I am attending College at this point, a community college. Like many of us do, i am planning on saving money to transfer and pay for my tuition and expenses in another 4yr University. Is unfair the treatmeant given toward us. FOr over centuries this country has been redefining who is an “American.” America is NOT a country, is a CONTINENT therefore ALL OF US are AMERICANS. I understand the anger of many citizens toward us but it takes more than words to actually understand the suffer, pain, agony, stress, depression, and so much more that AB 540 students have to undergo while living in what they call home and not being accepted. Why can’t this country realize that we have already pass through this? Going back to African Americans, Asians, Irish and many other ethnic groups, they had already pass and worked their way out of discrimination and racism, yet it is still a significant issue in the U.S. I hope for the DREAM Act to pass in order for not just me but many other out there like me that want to actually become someone bright in the future and give back to our communities. Please do not be mad at us. Is not our fault nor was our desicion to cross a border. Our home countries denied our parents a good education, health, and many more things which was the reason for many families to cross a line and risking their blood. Now we are unfairly labeled criminals, aliens, illegals, terrorists, etc… The DREAM Act is a door for undocumentes students to show their contribution to better the U.S, our home.

I, like you, was brought into the US at three years of age. Since then I have worked hard to better my future, and to one day make my DREAM come true, i want to go to college. We are not criminals. All the students that are fighting, TOGETHER, for the DREAM ACT, want it to be passed. We want to be able to go to college, and better our communities. Thank You for keeping our DREAM alive.

[...] Also at the protest was Lizbeth Mateo. “I’ve been organizing for years, and a lot of my friends have become frustrated and lost hope,” said one of the students, Lizbeth Mateo, 25. “We don’t have any more time to be waiting. I really believe this year we can make it happen.” Here is some additional information on Ms. Mateo from The Dream is Coming. [...]
