 Award Winning Documentary Series OUR VERY OWN: Locked up Abroad with Julius J. Levy Features Rueben Simpson; declared stateless, Refused by three countries including his place of birth

Kingston, Jamaica – May, 2011 – Rueben Simpson, born in Wurzburg, Germany in 1980 on a US Army Base, shares his story in
Episode II of the Tell All documentary series OUR VERY OWN: Locked up Abroad which captures and shares personal
experiences and experts points of views on immigration, migration and deportation and its impact on the Caribbean
Population and Economy.

The now 30-year old Simpson, who was locked up on drug related charges after being caught by US Authorities with cash
bearing special serial numbers, explains how this followed by a series on unfortunate experiences, left him stateless.
Simpson tells his story as a cautionary tale to Caribbean families living abroad even as he seeks answers and longs for home.

“They informed me that I was actually stateless and that the U.S. has 180 days from the time of my final order of removal or
they would have to release me… there’s like less than 14 days before the 180 days and I’m awakened and told to pack my
things, and two days later I’m in Jamaica” Simpson states. This was his very first trip to Jamaica.

Presenter of OUR VERY OWN: Locked up Abroad Julius J. Levy adds, “Migration and immigration plays a very important role
in the development of Countries, Cities, Towns and Communities. Caribbean Nationals have been migrating for decades
and many have experienced the dark sides of it. Our Very Own: Locked up Abroad shines the spotlight on the dark corners
of immigration and deportation, while highlighting the strength of those who survive. Immigration and Deportation affect
you and me; and by extension our economy.”

OUR VERY OWN: Locked up Abroad aims to transform Caribbean Youths into instruments of change with the hope that they
may change the face of today’s society and bring about a new Caribbean Pride and oneness. By sharing our stories, we
encourage others to develop gumption while bringing to the fore those “untold” stories.
