Five years ago, we interviewed a woman who asked that we call her
Herminia. It was the summer of 2019, just as former President
Donald J. Trump — then in his first term — ordered nationwide
raids to round up and deport undocumented immigrants. Herminia
feared she was on the list.

In the end, she was never arrested. A few days ago, we called
Herminia back. We asked what has happened to her since Trump left
office, and how she is preparing for a second Trump term — in
which he has pledged to put the deportation of people like her at
the center of his presidency.

Guests: Herminia, an undocumented immigrant who has been living
in the United States with her husband and children for more than
two decades. (Herminia is not her real name.)

Background reading:

We first spoke to Herminia in 2019. Listen to that interview.

Here’s what we know about the situation at the U.S.-Mexico
border.

Across the U.S., there has been widespread anxiety about
Trump’s promises to deport immigrants. Some schools are readying
educators and immigrant families for a potential wave of
deportations.
