    Something different today. Please RT. Is there a story in your family about a time when a child and parent were forcibly separated? Maybe it was one year ago. Maybe it was 200. Or 300. Maybe it was in the United States. Maybe it was in Poland. Or Rwanda. Please share your story.

        My older brother was deported to Mexico when though we're not Mexican, he speaks absolutely no Spanish, we're all U.S. citizens, born in the U.S. He just happens to be very dark living in Arizona.

        My great uncle had intellectual disabilities (autism?). He was removed frm my great grandparents care and forcibly placed in an institution. My grandma cried for weeks. His name was Pete. It's now one of the most frequently used male names in our family.

        I've read so many of these today. They're all difficult. But that so many people are named Pete in your family gave me pause. Thank you for sharing.

        I went with my dad to his appointment at USCIS thinking he was going to get his residency. They made me leave the office. ICE took him. Didn’t get to say goodbye or tell him his rights.

        My FB post from Yom Hashoah last year, about my grandfather's aunt Dolly. She was haunted for decades by the sound of her sons crying when they were taken from her. They were 6 and 3.pic.twitter.com/RhLcF6LdfA

        My great, great, great grandmother was separated from her family during the Trail of Tears. Her mother, father, & 2 sisters were all removed to Oklahoma and she left behind in Alabama. She never saw them again. Another sister & a brother were born later that she never met.

        In the 90s my dad tried to take me on a road trip from the US to Canada. Despite having documents from my legal guardian, my grandma, that this was okay, the border patrol separated and detained us. I was afraid and crying so they tried to give me candy. I wouldn't take it.

        My dad is dark complected and I'm light. It wasn't uncommon for white people to routinely ask if I was okay whenever I was with him as a child. I have a feeling this wouldn't have happened if I were with my mom, who was a terrible parent but light complected.

        I have a cousin who is Irish-Italian w/dark hair, olive skin, brown eyes. My redhead aunt told me back in the 80s she was crossing fm Mexico to Texas w/her and a priest and suddenly realized there might be trouble and that NJ Italian does not code the same in TX.

        Yep. There is a lot of colorism associated with the racism.

        My g grandmother was shipped to the Netherlands as a toddler, away from her Indonesian mother. Supposedly she and her brother went to an aunt because he had asthma, but many Indo kids were removed if they showed signs of being "too strongly influenced" by their non-Euro family.

        In any case, the Netherlands in the 1890's sounds seriously traumatic for non-white kids. I've read horrible stories of the monitoring done of Indo and Indonesian immigrants, in order to force assimilation. I have no idea if she ever saw her mother again.

        Most of my own childhood was spent fighting efforts to take me & my bro from my parents. One of my most vivid teen memories is police arresting both my parents. I suppressed my furyterror enough to convince them that an adult lived with us to keep the 2 of us together and home.
