OUR NATIONAL DISGRACE AT THE BORDER

Hundreds of migrant children have been transferred out of a filthy Border Patrol station in Texas where they had been de- tained for weeks without access to soap, clean clothes or ade- quate food, the authorities confirmed on Monday, -- The New York Times, Monday, June 24

Regardless of how one may feel about the issue of immi- gration, legal and illegal, we would hope that every American would agree that the policy of separating children from their parents, and then detaining those children in facilities that are not fit for animals, represents a stain on our national conscious- ness that is evident for all the world to see. These children, who range in age from toddlers to young teens, have been treated as less than human by our government. Some have died while under the care of the Border Patrol; oth- ers have become sick and malnourished. All will bear the psy- chological scars for the rest of their lives of being held in make- shift jails in conditions that are nothing less than appalling. America is supposed to be a beacon of light in a world of darkness, a place where everyone, regardless of race, creed, or national origin, is treated with dignity and respect. However, from our nation’s inception, all too often we have failed to live up to the noble words in the Declaration of Inde- pendence that, “All men are created equal.” Slavery was embedded in our Constitution; segregation was legally permissible for almost 100 years after the Civil War; Na- tive Americans were massacred and forced onto reservations; women were second-class citizens and not allowed to vote until 1919; and Japanese-Americans were interned during WWII. None of us can change the past, but hopefully we can learn from it and not repeat the mistakes of previous generations. However, the present policies that are being enforced at our Guest Op-Ed southern border are as cruel and as inhumane as any that have existed in our nation’s history.
