USA Today runs an interesting article about how some activists are making their undocumented status public as a means to stall deportation but also to challenge existing federal deportation policies. The article centers on Mohammad Abdollahi who "got himself arrested during a May 2010 protest of immigration policies and had a friend alert immigration officials of the arrest. He figured that if his case was made public, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials would be hard-pressed to deport him." Interesting article.
