What this North Carolina activist says we need to move immigration rights forward in the South Andrew J. Yawn, The American South © Contributed by Stefania Arteaga Stefania Arteaga is the Regional Immigrants Rights Strategist for the ACLU of North Carolina.
For Stefania Arteaga, the fight for immigration rights is a deeply personal mission.
When she was 7 years old, for safety reasons, Arteaga and her family moved to the U.S. from El Salvador. Her childhood was defined by moments that illuminated experiences similar to many Central American immigrants.
Her family was in New Bedford, Mass., when they experienced one of the largest ICE raids of the Bush administration, she said. After moving to North Carolina following the 2008 financial crisis, her journalist mother began covering deportations at a time when North Carolina’s Latino population was rapidly growing.
