Sinopse
It's not every day an undocumented person gets to sit in the chamber of power and listen to the president. But that's what happened to Angie Kim. Emil Guillermo talks with Kim, a community organizing fellow at the Minkwon Center for Community Action in Flushing, Queens, NY.

In recent days, some DACA recipients have been apprehended by ICE under new broad guidelines.
