Immigration has become the defining issue of our moment. People are on the move like never before, and countries are scrambling to deal with both the influx, and the loss, of people on the move. In the United States, our former and current president, Trump, has made expelling immigrants his top priority, and we are witnessing the revamping of the Department of Homeland Security, and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), to capture and expel immigrants at an alarming rate, disrupting peaceful communities and denying those detained due process as required by the U.S. Constitution.
