Indigenous languages and the migrant border crisis
Thousands of migrants, many of whom are seeking asylum as they escape violence, extreme poverty, and oppression, are stopped at the U.S. border.
The lack of resources available to them is a serious life-and-death concern. Adding to the many other hurdles is a language disconnect for Indigenous migrants.
Wednesday on Native America Calling, we’ll get an update on the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border and how it affects Indigenous people from Mexico and Central and South America.
