Millions of Latinos were Deported under the Obama Administration

Soldiers, sailors, and marines served in the United States military even though they were not born in the country. If they obtained a green card, they were welcomed to enlist with open arms. Some of them entered the United States by crossing the border illegally and promised citizenship in exchange for their service.

Second-generation children from Latino families have difficulty assimilating into American culture. We can see it on the walls of highway bridges and freeway walls. They wave foreign flags to get here but prefer to stay in the United States and not go back.

Equal Opportunities are Important

As President Trump moves to fulfill his campaign promise to deport millions of immigrants who are in the country illegally, they'll most likely include Mexicans whose children were born in the United States. Over half a million of these kids are already in Mexico.

Researchers call them "los invisibles", the invisible ones because they often end up in an educational limbo of sorts. Most don't read or write in Spanish, so they're held back. Many get discouraged and stop going to school. In some cases, schools even refuse to enroll them.

Many children born in the United States going to school in Mexico do not speak Spanish.

In the border city of Tijuana, however, there's a model program designed to help these children.

The land border crossing between Tijuana, Mexico and San Ysidro, Calif. is one of the busiest in the world. Every day 25,000 people cross the border on foot. Among the crowd are students whose families live in Tijuana. Each morning their families commute many hours to bring the children to school in the U.S.

Teachers in San Diego estimate that about 1,000 students cross from Tijuana into San Diego every day to go to school.

Juan and his mom, Maria, wake up at 5:30 a.m. each day to make the trek from their home in Tijuana to Juan's high school in San Ysidro. Some mornings, crossing the border can take up to an hour and a half."

It's been kind of, it's been a lot," Juan says. "Every day crossing it's like, the time management, it's finishing the homework on time. It's a lot."

But Juan's mom says it's worth the sacrifice.
