Women detained at the T. Don Hutto Residential Center in Texas are on day 14 of a hunger strike.
On October 28, 27 women being held at the T. Don Hutto Residential Center began a hunger strike with a single demand: immediate release from an immigration detention center that they say neglects them and their rights. Fourteen days later, local advocacy group Grassroots Leadership reports that the growing group of women is still refusing to eat and is now facing retaliatory measures.
In 2010 Race Forward, along with partner organizations, led the Drop The I-Word campaign in order to eliminate the word "illegal" when used to reference undo...
Language matters. It has the power to unite or divide.
The word “illegal” is a word that divides. The i-word is never used to evoke images of white immigrants, its widespread use coincides with rising hate crimes, particularly against Latinos, and it is inaccurate by legal and journalistic standards.
It was a great accomplishment when in 2013 the Associated Press finally took the phrase “illegal immigrant” out of its Stylebook, affecting millions of readers around the world. That victory had a domino effect, with the Gannett newspapers, the LA Times, and many others taking the same policy. A success, for sure, yet hardly a permanent victory.
Our reasons for starting the campaign stand. Only a few months ago, a homeless Hispanic man was viciously assaulted by Trump’s political supporters. The attackers stated Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric was the motivation for their crime. Donald Trump and others have made the phrase, widely understood to be a racial slur two years ago, acceptable again. On the media front, The Washington Post still uses it, as does the New York Times and other influential news outlets.
Because the slur and the violence remain, our humanity requires us to renew our efforts to eliminate usage of this word. We are asking for your new or renewed commitment to Drop the I-Word. You can find resources at DroptheIWord.com (in English and Spanish), and a pledge that you can take and ask others to take as well. Be sure to check out my latest article “Let’s Drop the I-Word -- Again” on Colorlines.

Working dually as artists and anthropologists, Hong Kong-based duo Zheng Mahler present New York Post- et Préfiguratif (Before and After New York), a multi-media performance that explores the shifting interplay of global economies and migration, drawing remarkable parallels between their fieldwork in Hong Kong and the experiences of French anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss who was exiled in New York in the 1940s.

Nearly 60 million people are displaced around the world because of conflict and persecution, the largest number ever recorded by the United Nations. About 14 million of those fled in 2014, according to a report released this week.

Their arrival in Germany is not exactly a warm welcome: Asylum seekers in Brandenburg are first brought to the initial registration center in Eisenhüttenstadt. Also Wasim from Syria, Mathew from Kenya and Gedeon from Cameroon are stranded at this surreal place in the outskirts of nowhere. THE INVISIBLES follows the three men on their way through the official proceedings, the mills of detecting and decision making. A snapshot of a life on hold, between hope and uncertainty.

People indignant that others would have the audacity to sing "America the Beautiful" in a language other than English, when America was built on opening its arms to the world? The quote on the Statue of Liberty doesn't say "give me your English -Speaking only, Christian-believing, heterosexual masses." it says "give me your tired, your poor, huddled masses, tempest-tossed.

The way folks talk about undocumented migrants in this country is so dehumanizing, not to mention that placing a legal status on a human being in and of itself is dehumanizing. Migration is about survival and a chance at a dignified life, migration is natural and it is beautiful. Created this piece recently for a project celebrating Immigrant Heritage Month, honoring migration and the powerful, sometimes heartbreaking, stories that come with migration.
“They are thinking of making this place much bigger, and for what? To hold more immigrant families, because they want to keep more people in these precarious conditions.” -Excerpt from letter
Artist statement: “Butterflies migrate and their migration is beautiful, they’re not restricted by physical borders. When humans restrict the beauty and nature of human migration it brings pain and trauma. It was important for me to incorporate these messages into the image of what migration should be and how detention and deportation are not only unnatural but they’re also detrimental. Rebecca’s letter illuminated the conditions that folks in detention are surviving day to day.” - Chucha Marquez
