Mindy Kaling has always been an outspoken celebrity, but as a person of color and a woman with immigrant roots, Trump’s immigration ban hit particularly close to home. The comedian and writer tweeted a passionate statement to her over eight million followers.

“I’m the child of people with green cards. It’s a simple twist of fate that I’m of Indian Hindu descent and not something else,” she wrote. “Please let’s not extinguish the hopes of people who love this country & want to work for it & help its citizens. & teach that to their kids.”
