Citizenship

The transition of “immigrant” to “citizen” is seldom any one feeling. There are feelings of loss and grief so painful it takes your breath away. Feelings of security and pride in being able to cast a ballot. Feelings of anger at colonial borders which crossed you and not the other way around. In these ways this transition is like any other in our lives: complex, filled with differing and evolving emotions. -Christina Rivera (CLF)
