[Being undocumented] is like this thing you want to forget, but you keep getting reminded of.

He added of his decision to come out as DACA, Theres all this fear thats being perpetuated.

We justcantbe scared anymore.

He returns to the superhero world for a small role in the upcoming Marvel filmBlack Panther.

America really has to stand for immigrants now, Bamba told theTimes.

At the bottom line, this is an immigrant nation.

It was founded by immigrants.

Bring me your downtrodden.

Bring me all those who are being persecuted, and they will have a safe place.

Thats still valid today even though the immigrants that are coming are not all from Europe anymore.

I believe America has a responsibility to those words and those ideals.
