♪ host: wewelcome to"glolobal 30" today we meet a young woman driving a chocolate revolution in indonesia. we head to yemen to witness how the war there is affecting children. and we fininout why unundocumend immigrants in the u.s. are being deported, even those with a job and a family. many people dream of seeking a better future in the u.s. most arrive legally, but about 11 million immigrants in the

country are believed to be undocumented. they come from across the globe. in recent years, most have come from mexico, guatemala, el salvador, and honduras. they are fleeing gang crime, violence, and poverty. many are children, or mothers with their children. around 60% of undocumented immigrants have lived inin the country for more than a decade. a third have at least one child who is a u.s. citizen by birth, and they own their home. reporter: rose escobar was living a fulfilled life in texas. she'd met the love of her life at the age of 14. later they found jobs and had a family. but one day, everything changed. rose's husband jose, who's from el salvador, was torn away from her and their two children. rose:"ok, rose, i need you to be strong." and i said, ok.

he goes,"they deported me last night. i didn't see it coming." reporter: jose was undocumented when he arrived in the u.s. as a young man. he never got into trouble with the authorities. when rose picks up her eight-year-old son walter from the school bus stop, he's proud to show her his work from class. rose: a-student. maybe pizza night? reporter: rose's neighbors are looking after her younger daughter, carmen. without their help, rose wouldn't be able to manage her job at a children's hospital. her husband jose is a carpenter, and thought their house would be a secure place for the family. but then young carmen saw her father taken away. at first she wasn't able to speak. now she's found her voice again. ♪

rose: did you finish your work? you're smart like your daddy. reporter: rose wants her children to remember jose as ththeir father, and not t as soe who's been deported. rose: he had been crying because there were tears on the floor. and jose goes,"i'm'm sorry," ad i i said,"what are you s sorry for?," and he went like this. he was already chained. reporter: that was more than a year and a halalf ago. jose has been living in el salvador ever since. but he feels no connection with the country he left at the age of 15. rose stitill tries to keep himp to date on their family's day-to-day news. jose was already detained for being undocumented seven years ago, b but he lateter released. the family's lawyers had no luck obtaining u.s. citizenship for him.

rose: it's different, because obama had a certain way of saying things that weren't hurtful. similar meaning, but not as hurtful. this president, the way he expresses hihimself, it's like we're not humans. we're just stuff that's here in the world for now. reporter: rose can't accept her husband's situation. she takes part in protests against presesident trump and s supporters.. bubut since rose went public wh her story, she's received a lot of hate mail. rose: it said,"dear miss escobar, how stupid are you to marry an illegal immigrant and allow him to put sperm in you so you can have his w wetback

children. kill them and kill yourself. you're not american. you have nothing that's american in you." i couldn't read the rest. reporter: rose is trying to shield her children n from ths hatred. she wants them to live as normal a life as possible. to celebrate their birthdays, she buys them modest piñatas to save money for household bills. she wants to keep her family's dream alive. rose: we're here in the united states, the land of opportunity. people are coming here, for what, the american dream? that's all gone. lady liberty is probably just looking down, shaking her head. like, what happened to america? it's not the same. reporter: the whole family pray together every night for jose's return. walter: my mom really misses

him, my sister misses him, i miss him. so, lord, i rereally hope andd cross my heart, please bring my dad home. in the mighty jesus' name we pray. we say amen. host: for 13 years, an ngo from washington, dc called the fund for peace has published an index rating countries for their social, political, and economic stability. things are particularly critical in south sudan, , somalia, and yemen, wherere for the pasast e years saudi arabia and iran have been waging a proxy war. the result, an entire generation is growing up in desperate poverty. nearly two million children in yemen are unable to attend school. 1.8 million are malnourished, and of those, 400,000 are acutely malnourished and in urgent need of medical care.
