Mexican Actor Demian Bichir
Los Angeles, CA – One Day at a Time executive producer Gloria Calderón Kellet and Vida producer Tanya Saracho have joined forces to stop the cruelty against the children of immigrants at the U.S.-Mexico border where they have been caged in detention centers.
“In just 6 weeks, upon being detained at the border, 1,995 children have been separated from their families and now a tent city has cropped up in Texas built to detain immigrant children,” Saracho added on her own Instagram account. “We have to do something,”
Both Latino-centered series challenged Jane the Virgin and Grand Hotel to join the two shows’ writers rooms in donating to RAICES Texas, an organization that raises funds to post bail for parents arrested at the border.
Mexican actor Demian Bichir wrote on Deadline about the crisis ar the Souther border, “The Trump administration has reached its lowest level of humanity in the past few weeks, using children to teach the world a lesson,” wrote Bichir bluntly. “These children have been physically and psychologically abused by the U.S. government.”
