You can intellectually support the hopes and desires of this little girl to stop fearing for her undocumented parents. But this is my community, my people’s anguish and pain and fear. I don’t expect you to understand, just like I couldn’t understand what it was like to be banned from marrying, even if I could support the fight for equality.
But you don’t need to feel this in the gut to understand that it will absolutely have a huge impact this November. Trump is an existential threat to the Latino community, and it will respond in kind (already has).
