yesixicana: My dad became a US citizen today. As much as I rage about this imperialist country, I cannot belittle my dad’s enthusiasm and joy when he called me to tell me the news.

As many ups and downs we both have had, my dad is such a g! With only a third grade education my dad gets shit done! People don’t understand that getting to this point serves as a source of empowerment in a country that is always belittling individuals who don’t have legal documentation. -- source link
