LEAVING PARADISE: GAY PARENTS STRUGGLE WITH IMMIGRATION INEQUALITY

Get the Flash Plugin to see this video.


Living and loving as a family, despite the threat of separation and danger.

Several states have passed marriage equality bills, but they don't do Cas, an American citizen, and Ricky, his Jamaican partner, any good. Cas can't sponsor Ricky because federal immigration law doesn't recognize gay couples. Should Ricky be sent back to Jamaica, Cas would lose his partner of six and a half years, and their adorable daughter would lose one of her dads.

Even more threatening? Jamaica's history of blatant discrimination and brutality towards gays and lesbians. The danger to Ricky is all too real. Meet this family of three, whose only wish is to be safe and stay together.
