“I grew up knowing I was missing a number and some papers,” Jeffrey Louie writes on the beautifully-produced Tumblr, Raise Our Story, “but the reality of being undocumented—of how much you are silenced, limited, and turned away—didn’t come until much later.” Raise is the brainchild of the Revolutionizing Asian American Immigrant Stories on the East Coast group, and tells the stories of young undocumented Asian Americans. Its updates – written by the kids themselves – are equal parts poignant and touching.
