Zariah has been asking about her father and I honestly don’t know what to tell her it’s been bothering me so much. Should I contact Messiah and tell him we have a daughter?

It was from my manger Madison, telling me that I have a meeting in the morning and reminding me that I have a blind date set up from me.

“I love you so much!”
I was hearing that all at once. I didn’t even know who was talking. “Can we have your signature?” They all asked.
“Jailyn??” I tuned to see my father,” We are going to be waiting in the car,” he told me with Zariah and her friend by his side.
“Is that your little girl?” One of the girls asked, I said yes with a smile.

    The unjustifiable sufferings of migrant farm workers in the United States These days, even though we are fighting strongly for human rights issues such as human trafficking, racial equality, asylum seekers and refugees, child abuse and LGBTQ rights, we have to admit that not everyone is equal.

In his book Fresh Fruit, Broken Bodies: Migrant Farmworkers in the United States, Seth Holmes explores the lives of the Mexican workers who cross the border illegally to come to the U.S and provides an interesting idea on how “the fault lines of class, race, citizenship, gender, and sexuality” have shaped the experience of…
