Description
The immigrant family separation policy, according to President Trump, is designed to deter the illegal immigration of Hispanics at the southern border. Despite the abuse of human rights that this policy creates for all immigrants, many legal asylum seekers are also detained.Imprisoning immigrants and separating children from their families is an unconscionable abuse of human rights. Incidents of sexual abuse and ridicule from ICE workers are being reported. In addition to hunger, expired food, overcrowded chain-linked cages, sleeplessness, and unhealthy living conditions, negligent medical care has even led to several deaths. In accordance with internationally accepted rights of the child, immigrant and refugee children should be treated with dignity and respect and should not be exposed to conditions that may harm or traumatize them. There is no excuse for this to be happening in the richest nation on earth. Privately owned detention centers in Florida and other states, should not be permitted to profit from this inhumane practice. Nonetheless, President Trump is using immigrants as hostages to deter Hispanic immigration and to rally support from a voting base that fears and hates non-white immigrants. Americans must not remain silent at this time. “Immigrant Hostages,” is a digital image created by Spadecaller.
