A humanitarian crisis continued to unfold this week at the U.S.-Mexico border, as photos emerged Monday of border patrol agents on horses charging and whipping Haitian migrants hoping to claim asylum in the United States. The number of people waiting for immigration processing in a makeshift camp in Del Rio Texas has grown by the thousands in just a few weeks. Jim Braude was joined on Greater Boston by Geralde Gabeau, founder and executive director of the Immigrant Family Services Institute, and Annelise Araujo, an immigration attorney who is chair of AILA New England, to discuss the developing story.

Gabeau said the images reminded her of the slavery era in America, and called it “horror at its base.” Braude noted that the U.S. is preparing to accept Afghan refugees at the time as deporting Haitians.
“We are getting ready to welcome the Afghan refugees. But for us as Haitians, they are just sending us back home with no respect, no dignity whatsoever,” Gabeau said. “This speaks volumes about the racism that we are living in this country. We need to speak about it. When you are Black, you are treated in a way that others are not.”
