An undocumented immigrant activist who was detained after reading a poem critical of Immigration and Customs Enforcement is free today. Two NFL players and immigration advocates paid $50,000 bail for the Bakersfield College student and farmworker. He was arrested at his home two days after he read his poem at a public meeting.
