The Comeback Dad

New America Media, Video Report Video, Cliff Parker, Posted: Oct 15, 2008

Over the past year, with support from the Marguerite Casey Foundation, NAM reporters have been traveling the country, spending time with America's families and documenting their concerns. Videographer Cliff Parker returned several times to the Rio Grande Valley, where a single father and his children live under constant threat of the father's deportation. This video gives a glimpse into one family's struggle to stay together even while split by the border. New America Media's coverage of this issue is underwitten by the Marguerite Casey Foundation.

Yes, this peice was very moving, it moved me to write a letter to the Editor regarding the raping of the American family and the struggles we are having to face with regard to this illegal invasion!
