NEVER IN AMERICA — the new two-hour national documentary by investigative journalist Ryan Matta — pulls back the curtain on one of the darkest corners of America’s child-welfare system. The film has already surpassed 363,000+ views in less than a single day and includes the story of Malaika and Xayah Robinson-Lopez, two young sisters who continue to suffer under the custody of San Diego County Child Welfare Services, their trauma growing with every day they remain unjustly separated from loving family.

Families across the country are now standing together to expose what is happening behind closed doors.
Ryan’s courage in amplifying these stories — including the ongoing fight for Malaika and Xayah — has given countless families a voice and brought national attention to abuses long kept in the dark.
