Bride

Naila Amin, 26, looks out from a classroom window at Nassau Community College in Garden City, N.Y., in 2016. "My passport ruined my life," said Naila Amin, a dual citizen from Pakistan who grew up in New York City. She was forcibly married at 13 in Pakistan and applied for papers for her 26-year-old husband to come to the country. "People die to come to America. I was a passport to him. They all wanted him here, and that was the way to do it." (AP file photo/Kathy Kmonicek)
