Whose Child Am I?
Author: Susan J. Terrio
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520281489
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
In 2014, the arrest and detention of thousands of desperate young migrants at the southwest border of the United States exposed the U.S. government's shadowy juvenile detention system, which had escaped public scrutiny for years. This book tells the story of six Central American and Mexican children who are driven from their homes by violence and deprivation, and who embark alone, risking their lives, on the perilous journey north. They suffer coercive arrests at the U.S. border, then land in detention, only to be caught up in the battle to obtain legal status. Whose Child Am I? looks inside a vast, labyrinthine system by documenting in detail the experiences of these youths, beginning with their arrest by immigration authorities, their subsequent placement in federal detention, followed by their appearance in deportation proceedings and release from custody, and, finally, ending with their struggle to build new lives in the United States. This book shows how the U.S. government got into the business of detaining children and what we can learn from this troubled history.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
Here I, a 92-year-old Jew, tell of One True Faith - of the ""morally infallible"" One True Faith of The Roman Catholic Church which in recent years has pleaded for reconciliation among all mankind but in earlier years burned Jews at the stake and buried thousands of witches alive for their sins. I tell, too, of another One True Faith, risen upon the scene, this of Islam, calling for the eradication from the face of the earth of ""infidels,"" all of other faiths, including Judaism and Christianity. Is Israel reluctant to permit the Palestinians to have a state of their own? Why? Can it be because the Palestinians wish to reserve to their state the right to eradicate Israel? Is it true that there is a Conspiracy among Jews, a Bond, that has held them together throughout history? Yes, it is true! I confess and reveal that Bond within the first dozen pages of this volume.
