Raise Awareness about Inhumane Immigrant Detention in the U.S.

Started by Breakthrough: building human rights culture

Join us in calling for an end to inhumane, degrading immigrant detention center conditions that have resulted in the death of 87 immigrants while in ICE custody. Experience this in www.homelandgitmo.com.

Immigrant detention subjects immigrants to unlawful, inhuman punishment that denies due process and violates human rights.

We must learn about alternatives to traditional detention that treat people with dignity and respect as they await their immigration proceedings.

We must hold DHS accountable for policies that violate basic human rights. When we deny due process and human rights to some, we put all our freedoms at risk.

Ask DHS to create legally enforceable regulations for immigrant detention facilities that will respect American values and human rights.

This is an ongoing pledge that should be fulfilled as often as possible.

In order for US to find solutions, "the People and Gov must work together." ~Dr.DeepakChopra
This is the hardest part of our efforts to create a world that is MORE THAN what Brother BHO calls "just a little bit better" ... convincing the powers that be that it is their own interests to take care of the base of the pyramid that supports them on "top" (if only financially ... ) Do they think THEY are "Native Americans"???? Were their ancestors detained upon entering the USA??? I think not.RE-legalize Immigration!!
