Odds are youve seen some form of immigration coverage on the local, evening, or cable news. Youve probably been bombarded with repeated images of shadowy figures being led away in cuffs, running across tracts of land, or hopping fences. Youve probably heard pundits and politicians call immigrants criminals, or even terrorists. However, the humanitarian aid group No More Deaths has a very different view of the border"one in which cartel violence and macroeconomic policies compel peoples northward migration, one in which US border enforcement strategies result in thousands of deaths and the needless suffering of countless more. The vantage of NMD allows a clear view of the racial profiling laws that have deported and separated more than 400,000 families.
