Haitians Make the Perilous Journey to the U.S.-Mexico Border

In a time of crisis, the United States has failed its Haitian neighbors. Black Haitian migrants encounter many obstacles before they even reach the U.S.-Mexico border. The challenges Haitian migrants face on their journey to the border highlight the deep discrimination and anti-Blackness embedded in U.S. and Mexican government’s immigration policies. We saw the abusive treatment of Haitian migrants at our border in Del Rio seven months ago, but the reality is that not much has changed for Haitian migrants since then.
