"The US Immigration System Is Inherently Abusive, Violent and Racist"

Janine Jackson: In a typical corporate media story on the family separations and deportations and asylum denials that define immigration policy under Donald Trump, the images and sometimes voices of immigrants are essentially illustrative.
