Rodney Taylor stood outside on a balmy late afternoon recently in Atlanta’s Candler Park neighborhood, relishing his first root beer float in a year and a half.
Released on 1 May from Georgia’s Stewart Detention Center, the Liberia-born barber had been detained since 15 February of last year, after ICE agents with guns drawn dragged him from his car in front of his house, while his two youngest children, now eight and six, looked on from the back seat. Now he was all smiles, surrounded by family and supporters.
