Thanks for sharing – I’ve retweeted this. Sad thing is that I don’t think Trump or his followers – including many in the GOP – view immigrants or their children as humans. We will have to constantly shame them into at least pretending to recognize non-white-males as people. We have to actively live our belief that all people are equally human – until we can vote in politicians who share our view of the equality and worth of all human beings.

You are welcome, and we must not ever let up the pressure on this administration. They do not recognize others as human, and that is not only immoral but also very dangerous. Thank you.

I agree. And thank you for your posts. Additionally at a time like this it is helpful when we share and encourage each other to remember our own and each others humanity.
