Yosvani Gacita Negrin was born in Cuba but came to the U.S. as a baby, never realizing that his lack of citizenship would one day turn his life upside down. After getting involved with drugs and being arrested by the feds, he spent three years in a private prison before being transferred to ICE custody for deportation. But when Cuba refused to take him back, Yosvani was released—left in legal limbo, unable to fully move forward with his life.
