from my friend and co-worker Brandon Bisbey--
This is a personal appeal for donations to help the family of my best friend from back home in Texas, where I'm from. My friend's dad, who is originally from Mexico and is undocumented, was pulled over for a traffic stop last month and turned over to ICE. He's currently in detention and the family is working with an attorney to try to avoid deportation. It's going to be 20-30K in legal fees when this is all over, and there's no guarantee they can even avoid his being deported. I've known these people for over 30 years, they've always treated me like family, and it's no exaggeration to say that I would not be here now if it weren't for them. I started a GoFundMe campaign to help them with the legal fees. They don't want any identifying info on the page to protect the rest of the family, so I'm the face. I'll receive donations and will use them to pay part of the legal fees. If you can donate anything at all, please do, and please share ...
